Stephan Jaklitsch

Principal, FAIA

As a founding principal, Stephan Jaklitsch has taken the practice from a studio focuses on residential and commercial projects in the New York region to an award-winning architectural firm with a diverse, international portfolio of work known for its design and detailing. Jaklitsch is interested in how architecture, landscape, and urbanism affect the quality of life and is dedicated to crafting spaces, buildings, and products that convey a sense of purpose and meaning through their construction and use. He is active in numerous organizations that are devoted to public engagement on matters related to architecture and urban design.
