Diane von Furstenburg Headquarters

Project Description

HQ served as historic preservation consultants to Diane von Furstenberg Inc. for the development of the company’s headquarters in the Gansevoort Historic District.  Designed by Work Architecture Company, the Diane von Furstenberg Headquarters is a hybrid of historic facades, a new structure and a significant contemporary rooftop addition.  HQ investigated the special characteristics of the historic district to illustrate the compatibility of the new design to the historic context and guided the project through the Landmarks Preservation Commission approval process.  The Diane von Furstenberg Headquarters was completed in 2007.
