In just a few weeks VAKOTA’s Stephen Taylor will be delivering the workshop “The Art of Manhattan Micro-Living” at New York Build Expo, on March 18th.

In his workshop, Stephen will explore how thoughtful architectural design can transform compact homes into spaces that feel practical, comfortable and inspiring.

Drawing on design-led approaches, the workshop will look at how layout, light, proportion and material choices can elevate smaller living environments into luxury spaces.

Those taking part will come away with insights into how architects and designers can approach compact spaces creatively, turning constraints into opportunities for better living.

Local Law 97 is helping to future proof New York City’s built environment.

With the 2030 emissions mandate approaching, building owners and developers must act now to future proof their assets. In our latest opinion piece, Stephen Taylor explores how thoughtful design, strategic retrofits and long term planning can turn compliance into opportunity.

LL97 isn’t just about avoiding penalties, it’s about improving performance, resilience and value while reducing carbon impact.

Get in touch if you want to understand how LL97 could impact your building.

Big things ahead for Third Street Music School as it champions sustainability!

We’re working with the school to help its historic building meet New York City’s 2030 sustainability goals under Local Law 97, transitioning from oil to fully electric, improving energy efficiency, and adding new technology without disrupting the classrooms, performances, or residents inside.

It’s a major step toward a low-carbon future and we’re excited to help this incredible institution lead the way.

Introducing The Gugs House, a bold, modern transformation from the architecture down to the finest interior details.

The star of the renovation? The kitchen. Once cramped and inefficient, it’s now a stunning focal point featuring a feather light beveled stone edge and a walnut island designed to look like custom furniture. It sets the tone for the entire home.

From a refreshed entry and new decks to a sleek dining room addition and a sculptural exposed stud wall in the studio, every upgrade reinforces the home’s clean, contemporary vibe.

The Gugs House demonstrates modern living that has elevated, cohesive and crafted with intention. https://vakota.com/projects/the-gugs-house/

After 20+ years designing luxury homes across Connecticut and 10 years at VAKOTA, one thing is clear for Partner, Matt Kocyba, every home must be bespoke.

In his latest article, Matt explores the transformation of a 1960s ranch into a “conservative contemporary” residence, where timeless elegance meets modern living, with sustainability at its core.

This project reflects a growing trend in Greenwich and beyond: clients want character, craftsmanship, and environmental consciousness, not just curb appeal. https://vakota.com/news/a-decade-of-redefining-stunning-environmentally-aware-homes-in-connecticut/
