James Koster Architect, PLLC is a full-service architecture practice based in New York City. JKA pursues a broad range of work from residential apartment, brownstone and loft renovations to commercial and development projects. JKA does not seek to promote a specific architectural style or design approach but instead develops a design concept rooted in the unique context of the project, the aspirations of the individual client and the functional and budgetary requirements. Whether a project will develop around an experimental, modern approach or a more familiar, traditionally rooted design results from a synthesis of these elements with the consequence that no two projects are ever alike. Attention to detail is the hallmark of our approach. Specialties: Apartment & loft renovations & combinations, townhouse renovations & additions, Landmarks Preservation Commission applications, new residential construction & small commercial projects
