Elskop Scholz

Ms. Elskop and Mr. Scholz have jointly directed their design firm in New York City since 1992. Throughout its career, the firm has placed an emphasis on residential architecture and interiors. Executing individual projects that address specific and unique client needs, they believe the greatest opportunities for fine design reside in the collaboration of client, architect and craftsman and provide the greatest value added to each project. The firm has been recognized with various awards, - the AIA NY Design in Architecture Award, the Boston Society of Architects and a Lucy B. Moses Preservation Award, as well as in various national and international publications. The firm believes each project should represent its solution as a synthesis of program, context, history and forward thinking rather than a particular style. Christopher & Ines consider the production phase to be as important as planning, dedicating commensurate attention to the field work necessary to realize the full design intent of the project. Working closely with builders, manufacturers and craftsmen they leverage the potential of materials and processes to develop innovative solutions to specific project requirements. In order to achieve a unified project and an integrated user experience Ms. Elskop and Mr. Scholz also supply services for custom and contract furnishings, interior decorating, and image consultation.
