Sponsored by AIA Central Pennsylvania
Bohlin Cywinski Jackson, founded in 1965, has offices in Wilkes-Barre, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Seattle and San Francisco. The firm’s work is known for exceptional design, for its commitment to the particularity of place and user, and for an extraordinary aesthetic based on a quiet rigor which is both intellectual and intuitive.
The firm’s work ranges greatly in scale and circumstance. Its architecture is alive to the subtleties of place — man-made or natural, to the varied natures of people, to the sensibilities of individuals, to the character of institutions, and to the rich possibilities of materials and the means of construction.
Possibly the firms most iconic project is the Apple Store on Fifth Avenue in New York City. Said Steve Jobs "...we think the Apple Store Fifth Avenue is going to be a favorite destination for New Yorkers and people around the world." Based on flickr research, the 32-foot glass cube marking the stores entrance is the most photographed location in New York City.
Bohlin Cywinski Jackson has received more than 500 regional, national and international awards for design. In 1994, the practice received the Architecture Firm Award from the American Institute of Architects. The firm’s work is published regularly in professional journals worldwide.
