New York has become the new home of Frida Escobedo's designs. After undertaking the remodeling of a wing of the MET (Metropolitan Museum), she is developing her second most ambitious project in the state: Bergen, the architect's first condominium in this city.

Mexico City-based architect Frida Escobedo, Bergen's author and the recipient of the 2024 Charlotte Perriand Award, is known for her bold concepts, which include a latticed structure for the 2018 Serpentine Pavilion in London and a treehouse-like hotel in Quintana Roo. Recently she has been working on new projects in New York, including the expansion of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and this residential scheme - her first condo development in the city.

Standing on a tree-lined avenue in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn, Bergen is a new residential project designed by Frida Escobedo's Mexican Studio for Avdoo & Partners Development.

Avdoo & Partners Development aims to help Bergen strike that balance between unique and contextually sensitive. Thus, it is designed with a low-stance and rhythmically-pleated facade to create proportions that echo the surrounding townhouses. Its pleated facade, constructed with custom-made blocks that vary in size and opacity, celebrates the interplay of light and air, while its orientation is strategically considered to maximize natural light from both the east and west. The overall design is shaped with a cohesive rhythm in terms of scale, materiality, and color, with porosity and transparency woven throughout the building's form.

Interior images have been revealed for a new block-long condo development in Boerum Hill. Located between 3rd and 4th Avenues in the Brooklyn neighborhood, residential project Bergen is the first condo building designed by Mexico-based architecture studio Taller Frida Escobedo.

With 105 units and an address spanning a length stretch between 3rd and 4th Avenues, Bergen is one of the larger new development projects to take shape in Brooklyn in recent years. 

While continuing with the design process for the expansion of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, MET, the office of Mexican architect Frida Escobedo shares the first views of her new and ambitious residential project in New York.

Avdoo & Partners Development recently announced the official launch of sales for Bergen. Designed by Taller Frida Escobedo, with residential interiors by ADl00 design firm Workstead and master planning and landscape design by DXA Studio and Patrick Cullina Bergen offers 105 condominiums in the heart of Brooklyn's Boerum Hill neighborhood. Avdoo & Partners in-house team is exclusively handling sales and marketing.

Boerum Hill will soon welcome a seven-story residential project designed by Mexico City–based Taller Frida Escobedo with a low-stance, rhythmically pleated facade. The building will feature 105 condominium units designed by Workstead, with an emphasis on indoor-outdoor living and private outdoor gardens for 75 percent of the units. Collaborating with landscape designers DXA Studio and Patrick Cullina, the scheme prioritizes natural light and porosity while fostering community through amenities like the Glass House, communal spaces, and outdoor terraces.

The Bergen building, still under construction, will rise above most of its neighbors.

A new residential project has been announced for Boerum Hill, Brooklyn, with architecture by Mexico City-based Taller Frida Escobedo. Those who live in the historic New York neighborhood are drawn to its low, brownstone streets and tree-lined sidewalks. For most, it’s a place to spend a Sunday morning, rather than a Saturday night. Contemporary additions are welcome to the quiet neighborhood provided the architecture is subtle and sensitive to its landmark neighbors.

Since founding her eponymous Mexico City-based studio in 2006, Frida Escobedo has captured some of the world's most sought after commissions. In 2018, Taller Frida Escobedo designed the Serpentine Pavilion, making her the youngest architect to ever do so. Then in 2022, her office was commissioned to design the new modern and contemporary art wing at the Met, another major milestone for the young firm. Now, Escobedo is designing her first residential condominium project in New York.

The architect of Bergen, in Boerum Hill, is Frida Escobedo, who recently landed the commission to redesign a wing of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Avdoo & Partners Development revealed their newest project in Boerum Hill - Bergen- set to launch sales in Spring 2024, with previews beginning in February 2024. Avdoo tapped architecture studio Taller Frida Escobedo to conceptualize the project's design.

Stretching nearly a block on Bergen Street in Boerum Hill, this new condo was designed to maximize natural sunlight. Rising seven stories between 3rd and 4th Avenues, just south of the Barclays Center, the residential project, dubbed Bergen, was designed by Mexico-based architecture studio Taller Frida Escobedo to complement the brownstone-filled neighborhood.
