We design spaces that enrich and enliven.

About

Dunham Robinson is a full-service architecture and interior design studio based in New York City. Founded by an architect and an engineer, our unique combination of imagination and technical know-how means every space we design is both inventive and functional.

We believe great design begins with the ability to read the room. Clients come to us with ambitions, inspiration, and constraints, and through a mix of creativity and precision, we open the door to ideas they couldn't have imagined. We know when to invent, when to simplify, and when to draw on experience to do both at once.

The best designs bring clarity to the complexities of living - spaces built to be used, and to look all the better for it. To us, this is elegance - and it's what makes a space, and the life within it, more vivid.

Leadership

Rachel Robinson, AIA

Rachel designs at the intersection of architecture and interiors and holds her work to a simple standard: a space needs to feel as good as it looks, and function even better. Her focus on materiality and spatial experience was sharpened at Toshiko Mori Architect, Selldorf Architects, and Rockwell Group, across residential, cultural, and hospitality work before co-founding Dunham Robinson. Rachel holds a Bachelor of Science in Architecture from the University of Virginia and a Master of Architecture from Harvard University Graduate School of Design.

Michael Dunham, P.E.

Michael is a problem solver - which turns out to be exactly what good design needs. His background in structural engineering and construction gives him a deep understanding of how buildings function and what a space can and should be: where it's strongest, where it can open up, where a detail or existing condition can become a defining feature. Michael holds a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering from Colorado State University and a Master of Science in Structural Engineering from Columbia University.
