American Copper Buildings by SHoP

To manage the incredible amount of work they’re doing, the architects at SHoP turn to key tools that help them organize, analyze and plan out multiple building projects at once. They work directly with the firm’s materials librarian and utilize Architizer’s marketplace to source high-quality building-products. Specifying trusted materials for the firm’s endless list of projects — the ones in New York City alone — is a time-consuming, overwhelming undertaking. Combining an in-house materials expert with Architizer’s quick and seamless matching process, SHoP is able to find the the best products for their projects in half the time.

As one of New York’s most influential architecture firms, SHoP Architectshas infiltrated the city and its boroughs over the last two decades with its unparalleled designs, completing one bold project after another. It’s safe to say that their work is shaping the modern face of New York. From the already iconic, five-year-old Barclays Center to the soon-to-be-built residential rhino, 9 Dekalb Avenue, SHoP’s buildings are quickly becoming synonymous with the city, just like the long-loved Guggenheim or the new Whitney.

While the firm’s portfolio of work stretches across five continents, its largest concentration of projects is within the city limits. The practice collaborates with New York’s biggest stakeholders in real estate, development and design to manifest new buildings that not only transform the city’s skyline, but play a substantial role in the evolution of its individual neighborhoods.
