Workplace Wednesday: SITU
SITU, 63 Flushing Ave Building 132, Brooklyn, NY 11205
Every week, Archtober invites you to an exciting behind-the-scenes look at some of the most innovative architecture firms in NYC. This Workplace Wednesday we will be visiting SITU!
Join SITU for an inside look at their Brooklyn Navy Yard (BNY) operations and the unique projects emerging from this multidisciplinary setup. SITU applies a range of architectural capacities—design, research and fabrication—to help innovative clients confront spatial and design challenges within the built environment. From creating a kit-of-parts for Brooklyn Public Library’s branches to milling sculptural features for luxury residences to designing 400,000 sq ft of office space for Google, SITU’s unique makeup has created a diverse portfolio and an unending series of thought-provoking questions about how spaces are being reimagined for today’s context.
Attendees will start in SITU’s fabrication shop in Building 132 for a guided tour of their latest digital techniques and ongoing projects. The group will then head across the Navy Yard to SITU’s design studio for drinks, snacks and brief presentations of their multidisciplinary design work and research initiatives.
