PETER PENNOYER ARCHITECTS

摘要

Assiduous scholarship underpins the work of Peter Pennoyer, a Manhattan architect whose residential projects uphold the legacy of prewar American building styles-in particular the designs of kindred aesthetic spirits Delano & Aldrich, Warren & Wetmore, and Grosvenor Atterbury (Pennoyer has coauthored books on all three firms). "My colleagues and I look for poise and harmony in the connections between modern taste and great historical models," says the architect, who was raised amid the venerable facades of New York's Upper East Side and groomed by Robert A.M. Stern, his former professor at Columbia University.
