| JRS Architect Wins AIA 2005 Archi Awards JRS Architect, PC, one of Long Island’s premier architectural design firms, won a prestigious 2005 Archi Award First Place for its work on the Roslyn-Flower Hill branch of North Fork Bank. The Mineola-based firm won first place in the Waldner’s Business Environments Furniture and Fixtures category in the juried competition sponsored by the American Institute of Architecture Long Island Chapter. The finishes, millwork and lighting futures designed by the firm were influenced by the Arts and Crafts movement popular in the late 19th Century, according to the project architect. The recently opened branch is the latest in a string of projects in JRS Architect’s growing portfolio of bank branch designs for North Fork Bank and other financial institutions, among them JP Morgan Chase, New York Community Bancorp’s Roslyn Savings Bank and Bethpage Federal Credit Union. JRS also won a Commendation Award in the 2005 Archi Awards in the interior architecture category for its design of North Fork Bank’s Williamsburg, Brooklyn branch. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Construction News :: home page |
