Celadon Elizabeth, NJ
This brown-field reclamation site is a proposed 30 acre mixed use, sustainable wa-
terfront community with one of the highest degrees of accessibility in the northern
New Jersey area.
Located less than 2 miles from Newark Liberty International Airport on the Newark
Bay in the City of Elizabeth, this development is conceived as a high rise “airport city”
providing commercial, residential and hotel accommodations for NJ residents that
work within the region or commute to NYC, and the international business traveling
community. Celadon is also highly anticipated due to its unique application of smart
growth and sustainable development principles that will provide significant munici-
pal and regional economic impacts.
This development benefits from a waterfront location that will feature expansive
views and a ferry landing providing direct access to lower Manhattan in approximate-
ly 25 minutes.Working with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection
and other local agencies, the design team has come up with solutions that maintain
view corridors to the Newark Bay as well as protection for the adjacent wetlands.
Waterfront parks will include passive recreational areas and offer facilities for activ-
ities such as kayaking and fishing.focus on environmental studies will thus redefine
models for educational facilities of the 21st century.
Site Plan approval was granted by the City of Elizabeth in December of 2007.

Located in Jersey City, New Jersey on Bates Street between Colden and Brooks Street, this 200,000 square foot
project is being developed as a mixed use development. This project will be completed in two phases including a
5-story and a 7-story residential tower above 2 levels of parking containing spaces for 132 vehicles and 2,660 SF
(approx.) of retail at grade level. Overall, the development will consist of a total of 129 residential units.
As part of the design of One Bates Street, there exists a green roof, centrally located amongst the two proposed
phases, as a private garden for the residents of the development. The façade will utilize a variety of heights and
masonry color palettes to create rhythm and break up its massing. The efficient floor plan layout gives the client a
desired cost effective building.

Cella Clinic
M E T R O P O L I T A N U N I T E D S T U D I O
The client requested that the interior space reflects his medical specialty in “personalized cell
therapy” - a newly developed technology of transplanting skin cells enriched from adult cell therapy.
The design of the clinic was approached holistically, much like the way a physician would treat a
patient’s body as a whole. The overall design is a fluid expression of the human cell and its
connective systems. Layers of undulating curves throughout the physically engaging space suggest
the systemic formation and reparation of cells. Perforations in the main floating ceiling also relfect
some cellular characteristics. This project has been published in the May 2008 edition of Maru, an
Interior, Lifestyle & Design Magazine and in the June 2008 edition of Interiors Magazine.

Cella 2: This is our client’s second clinic.
The clinic is divided into three main areas: reception area, offices, and surgery rooms. These spaces are
unified by the perforated floating ceiling and by the use of materials. A custom-designed multi-func-
tional lighting-shelving-shading device further unifies the interior space but also acts as a link to the
exterior through the use of LED lights. This visual expression is most prominent at night.
Identity and branding concepts were provided in conjunction with the design of the space.

MUS is the architect of record for this 3,050 SF penthouse alteration/renovation, located in
Midtown Manhattan. The initial layout of the penthouse was altered slightly from its original
design to better organize the desired condo features. This includes a new feature wall and a
restructured kitchen layout for the clients to efficiently entertain their guests. The feature wall
serves multiple purposes for the clients’ needs, as both a display wall on the living room side
for artwork and on its opposing side, a storage area for additional acquired pieces. MUS worked
in collaboration with Westforth Architecture on this project. The photos are courtesy of Bjorg
Magnea. The penthouse construction was completed in July 2009. Schreiber Residence

Beauty Channel Headquarters is a 4,200 SF office located within a 30,000 SF warehouse footprint.
Beauty Channel is a major distributor of fashionable hair pieces and accessories. Our client’s pro-
grammatic requirements included conference rooms, offices, workstations, and amenity areas. The
design utilizes vibrant colors and industrial materials within a contemporary aesthetic to market
the company’s young and dynamic brand image. Transparency is emphasized to bring light into the
space and to encourage open collaboration among the employees. A “lounge” concept is introduced
through the use of casual reception/break-out areas. This concept is reinforced through the addition
of gallery spaces staggered throughout the office to allow moments of reprieve or reflection to break
up the formal work routine. Construction was completed in December 2009.

French Nails is a salon located at 1100 Adams Street in Hoboken, New Jersey. The space is at the
corner of the lot, located on the ground level of a residential complex. Small in square footage, the
challenge was to fit the program within the space efficiently. To enhance and maximize the use
of the space, bright color palettes and materials were used to create an atmosphere of simplicity
and serenity. An accent wall in the center of the space utilizes Bamboo, as it climbs up the entire
height of the wall and seamlessly connects to the ceiling. Frosted glass is used to provide the user
with a more open, airy atmosphere. Construction was completed in July 2008.

Co-owner Tobias Holler says the space is “contemporary yet inspired by the traditions of the
Black Forest region.” “One half of the guest area is designed as a ‘Wohnzimmer’ (parlor/living
room), with an exposed wood joist ceiling, dark wainscot and exposed brick. The other part of
the guest area is flooded with daylight through a series of large skylights, creating a quasi-
outdoor ‘beergarden’ atmosphere.” The project makes extensive use of salvaged building
materials, such as retired NYC scaffolding planks used for wall paneling and furniture.

represents a reinvention of the conventional New York
City residential building typology, with floor to ceiling
glass, wrap-around windows and sleek metal panels.
Integrated high performance technologies such as a
blackwater treatment plant, efficient microturbines,
and green roofs earned the building a LEED Gold
Certification.

The Helena incorporates extensive water usage
reduction measures, including a blackwater treatment
plant that provides water for irrigation, toilet water
and cooling tower make up, green roofs to reduce
stormwater runoff, and low-flow fixtures throughout
the building. Incoming water to the apartments is
filtered to 10 microns.
Blackwater is wastewater generated from human uses,
including showers, sinks, toilets, and dishwashers.
Unlike greywater (stormwater runoff), blackwater
must be treated to eliminate the potential threat from
waterborne viruses and diseases.
The bulk of residential domestic waste water
is generated in the morning from showers. The
equalization tank provides storage capacity for the
cyclicalvariationallowingforconsistentwatervolumes
for the treatment process.
Stormwater captured on the roof is only required to
be bleached by the hypochloride treatment phase. It
is run through a rotating screen to remove debris and
introduced late in the treatment process.
The blackwater plant reclaims 50,000 gallons of water
per day, decreasing potable water consumption and
the environmental impact associated with sending
the wastewater to the city’s system. Potable water
savings are close to 1.5 million gallons a year.

In the Clinton neighborhood of Manhattan’s West
Side, there is a new assemblage of buildings that
accommodate residential, cultural and commercial
uses. The two 300-unit apartment towers rise above
a base inhabited by two separate theater companies,
the Ensemble Studio Theater and the Intar Hispanic
American Arts Center. Three stories of loft-like
apartments are located immediately above the
theaters. The residential towers are planned to be 24
stories high. Apartments on the upper floors overlook
the public open space and take advantage of views
to the river and of the midtown Manhattan skyline.
This project is under construction and is expected to
earn LEED certification from the U.S. Green Building
Council.

Early in 2008, an extraordinary crystalline skyscraper
of steel, aluminum and glass will rise from the
northwest cornerof Bryant Parkto illuminate Midtown
Manhattan. Developed by the Durst Organization
to house the New York headquarters of the Bank of
America in 2,100,000 sqaure feet of space, it promises
to reshape the urban skyline of the future as surely as
did the famed Crystal Palace, the first glass and steel
building in America, when it rose from Bryant Park
in 1853. The design for One Bryant Park is inspired
by the building’s unique site within its local urban
location and its broader urban context. Located at
the juncture of Sixth Avenue - a highly trafficked and
commercially important artery - and 42nd Street,
near Times Square, with its worldwide reputation as
a critical center for arts and entertainment, the design
strives to respond to these dense urban conditions.
One Bryant Park is be noted for its pioneering
integration of inspired design with innovative, high-
performance environmental technologies.

MUS conceives the future development of the Metropo-
lis as a global event apparatus that unites the collective
evolution of the individual sovereign nation-states. The
concept of Continental Cities in Africa, Antarctica, Aus-
tralia, Asia, Europe, North America, and South America
can be united as one multiple singularity that un-maps
the borders of separate nation-states. These multiple
singularities can be re-mapped as a series of urban con-
stellations. Simply put, realizing a living globe, without
human-made boundaries, that recognizes the Metropo-
lis as a viable connector for commerce, regional evolu-
tion and specific cultural identities.
Our collaborators and partners are driven by the ecolog-
ical event apparatus, recognizing that our living globe
(Gaia) will inversely affect our living conditions pending
the united actions carried across globally and cross-cul-
turally. For example, current climate trends from the
misuse of natural resources will serve as the ecological
event apparatus that leads to global warming. MUS
strives to understand the implications of the ecological
event apparatus in relation to the Metropolis and spec-
ulates on possible adaptive measures.
Through our investigations, working side by side with our
clients, we can identify cross-cultural solutions derived
from a hybrid of multiple sustainable design precedents
that have been implemented successfully. Understand-
ing that different cities and different cultures evolve at
a different pace, sustainability is conceived as reactions
to the specificity brought to us by our clients from their
respective cultures, countries, and sites.
The products of these approaches lead to innovative
results, ranging in scales and applications, large, small,
landscape, or urban.

  • 6. RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS M E T R O P O L I T A N U N I T E D S T U D I O METROPOLITAN UNITED STUDIO WWW.MU-STUDIO.COM Celadon Elizabeth, NJ This brown-field reclamation site is a proposed 30 acre mixed use, sustainable wa- terfront community with one of the highest degrees of accessibility in the northern New Jersey area. Located less than 2 miles from Newark Liberty International Airport on the Newark Bay in the City of Elizabeth, this development is conceived as a high rise “airport city” providing commercial, residential and hotel accommodations for NJ residents that work within the region or commute to NYC, and the international business traveling community. Celadon is also highly anticipated due to its unique application of smart growth and sustainable development principles that will provide significant munici- pal and regional economic impacts. This development benefits from a waterfront location that will feature expansive views and a ferry landing providing direct access to lower Manhattan in approximate- ly 25 minutes.Working with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection and other local agencies, the design team has come up with solutions that maintain view corridors to the Newark Bay as well as protection for the adjacent wetlands. Waterfront parks will include passive recreational areas and offer facilities for activ- ities such as kayaking and fishing.focus on environmental studies will thus redefine models for educational facilities of the 21st century. Site Plan approval was granted by the City of Elizabeth in December of 2007.

  • 8. Located in Jersey City, New Jersey on Bates Street between Colden and Brooks Street, this 200,000 square foot project is being developed as a mixed use development. This project will be completed in two phases including a 5-story and a 7-story residential tower above 2 levels of parking containing spaces for 132 vehicles and 2,660 SF (approx.) of retail at grade level. Overall, the development will consist of a total of 129 residential units. As part of the design of One Bates Street, there exists a green roof, centrally located amongst the two proposed phases, as a private garden for the residents of the development. The façade will utilize a variety of heights and masonry color palettes to create rhythm and break up its massing. The efficient floor plan layout gives the client a desired cost effective building. One Bates Street received site plan approval on August 5, 2008.

The retail building is also designed to redefine the street character of Grand Avenue. METROPOLITAN UNITED STUDIO WWW.MU-STUDIO.COM
  • 11. INTERIOR PROJECTS Cella Clinic M E T R O P O L I T A N U N I T E D S T U D I O The client requested that the interior space reflects his medical specialty in “personalized cell therapy” - a newly developed technology of transplanting skin cells enriched from adult cell therapy. The design of the clinic was approached holistically, much like the way a physician would treat a patient’s body as a whole. The overall design is a fluid expression of the human cell and its connective systems. Layers of undulating curves throughout the physically engaging space suggest the systemic formation and reparation of cells. Perforations in the main floating ceiling also relfect some cellular characteristics. This project has been published in the May 2008 edition of Maru, an Interior, Lifestyle & Design Magazine and in the June 2008 edition of Interiors Magazine. METROPOLITAN UNITED STUDIO WWW.MU-STUDIO.COM
  • 12. INTERIOR PROJECTS Cella2 Clinic M E T R O P O L I T A N U N I T E D S T U D I O Cella 2: This is our client’s second clinic. The clinic is divided into three main areas: reception area, offices, and surgery rooms. These spaces are unified by the perforated floating ceiling and by the use of materials. A custom-designed multi-func- tional lighting-shelving-shading device further unifies the interior space but also acts as a link to the exterior through the use of LED lights. This visual expression is most prominent at night. Identity and branding concepts were provided in conjunction with the design of the space. METROPOLITAN UNITED STUDIO WWW.MU-STUDIO.COM
  • 13. INTERIOR PROJECTS M E T R O P O L I T A N U N I T E D S T U D I O MUS is the architect of record for this 3,050 SF penthouse alteration/renovation, located in Midtown Manhattan. The initial layout of the penthouse was altered slightly from its original design to better organize the desired condo features. This includes a new feature wall and a restructured kitchen layout for the clients to efficiently entertain their guests. The feature wall serves multiple purposes for the clients’ needs, as both a display wall on the living room side for artwork and on its opposing side, a storage area for additional acquired pieces. MUS worked in collaboration with Westforth Architecture on this project. The photos are courtesy of Bjorg Magnea. The penthouse construction was completed in July 2009.

  • 14. INTERIOR PROJECTS M E T R O P O L I T A N U N I T E D S T U D I O Beauty Channel Headquarters is a 4,200 SF office located within a 30,000 SF warehouse footprint. Beauty Channel is a major distributor of fashionable hair pieces and accessories. Our client’s pro- grammatic requirements included conference rooms, offices, workstations, and amenity areas. The design utilizes vibrant colors and industrial materials within a contemporary aesthetic to market the company’s young and dynamic brand image. Transparency is emphasized to bring light into the space and to encourage open collaboration among the employees. A “lounge” concept is introduced through the use of casual reception/break-out areas. This concept is reinforced through the addition of gallery spaces staggered throughout the office to allow moments of reprieve or reflection to break up the formal work routine. Construction was completed in December 2009. Beauty Channel Headquarters METROPOLITAN UNITED STUDIO WWW.MU-STUDIO.COM
  • 15. INTERIOR PROJECTS French Nails M E T R O P O L I T A N U N I T E D S T U D I O French Nails is a salon located at 1100 Adams Street in Hoboken, New Jersey. The space is at the corner of the lot, located on the ground level of a residential complex. Small in square footage, the challenge was to fit the program within the space efficiently. To enhance and maximize the use of the space, bright color palettes and materials were used to create an atmosphere of simplicity and serenity. An accent wall in the center of the space utilizes Bamboo, as it climbs up the entire height of the wall and seamlessly connects to the ceiling. Frosted glass is used to provide the user with a more open, airy atmosphere. Construction was completed in July 2008. METROPOLITAN UNITED STUDIO WWW.MU-STUDIO.COM
  • 16. INTERIOR PROJECTS Manna- Modern Asian Cuisine M E T R O P O L I T A N U N I T E D S T U D I O Manna Korea is a 2,100 SF modern asian cuisine restaurant located in downtown Teaneck, NJ. The overall concept is to create a sleek contemporary formal appearance that focuses on simple minimalistic elements. The space has a limited color range palette consisting mostly of a white minimalist interior with bold orange and green accented features. Nature permeates deeply into the space by way of a large open glass storefront and an open atrium. The atrium contains a bamboo courtyard that seeks to immerse the restaurant patrons within the context of a natural Asian woodland as they dine. Construction was completed in May 2009.

  • 21. Co-owner Tobias Holler says the space is “contemporary yet inspired by the traditions of the Black Forest region.” “One half of the guest area is designed as a ‘Wohnzimmer’ (parlor/living room), with an exposed wood joist ceiling, dark wainscot and exposed brick. The other part of the guest area is flooded with daylight through a series of large skylights, creating a quasi- outdoor ‘beergarden’ atmosphere.” The project makes extensive use of salvaged building materials, such as retired NYC scaffolding planks used for wall paneling and furniture.

  • 25. The Helena incorporates extensive water usage reduction measures, including a blackwater treatment plant that provides water for irrigation, toilet water and cooling tower make up, green roofs to reduce stormwater runoff, and low-flow fixtures throughout the building. Incoming water to the apartments is filtered to 10 microns. Blackwater is wastewater generated from human uses, including showers, sinks, toilets, and dishwashers. Unlike greywater (stormwater runoff), blackwater must be treated to eliminate the potential threat from waterborne viruses and diseases. The bulk of residential domestic waste water is generated in the morning from showers. The equalization tank provides storage capacity for the cyclicalvariationallowingforconsistentwatervolumes for the treatment process. Stormwater captured on the roof is only required to be bleached by the hypochloride treatment phase. It is run through a rotating screen to remove debris and introduced late in the treatment process. The blackwater plant reclaims 50,000 gallons of water per day, decreasing potable water consumption and the environmental impact associated with sending the wastewater to the city’s system. Potable water savings are close to 1.5 million gallons a year.

  • 26. In the Clinton neighborhood of Manhattan’s West Side, there is a new assemblage of buildings that accommodate residential, cultural and commercial uses. The two 300-unit apartment towers rise above a base inhabited by two separate theater companies, the Ensemble Studio Theater and the Intar Hispanic American Arts Center. Three stories of loft-like apartments are located immediately above the theaters. The residential towers are planned to be 24 stories high. Apartments on the upper floors overlook the public open space and take advantage of views to the river and of the midtown Manhattan skyline. This project is under construction and is expected to earn LEED certification from the U.S. Green Building Council.

  • 28. Project completed under CookFox Architects Early in 2008, an extraordinary crystalline skyscraper of steel, aluminum and glass will rise from the northwest cornerof Bryant Parkto illuminate Midtown Manhattan. Developed by the Durst Organization to house the New York headquarters of the Bank of America in 2,100,000 sqaure feet of space, it promises to reshape the urban skyline of the future as surely as did the famed Crystal Palace, the first glass and steel building in America, when it rose from Bryant Park in 1853. The design for One Bryant Park is inspired by the building’s unique site within its local urban location and its broader urban context. Located at the juncture of Sixth Avenue - a highly trafficked and commercially important artery - and 42nd Street, near Times Square, with its worldwide reputation as a critical center for arts and entertainment, the design strives to respond to these dense urban conditions. One Bryant Park is be noted for its pioneering integration of inspired design with innovative, high- performance environmental technologies. One Bryant Park New York City, New York

The concept of Continental Cities in Africa, Antarctica, Aus- tralia, Asia, Europe, North America, and South America can be united as one multiple singularity that un-maps the borders of separate nation-states. These multiple singularities can be re-mapped as a series of urban con- stellations. Simply put, realizing a living globe, without human-made boundaries, that recognizes the Metropo- lis as a viable connector for commerce, regional evolu- tion and specific cultural identities. Our collaborators and partners are driven by the ecolog- ical event apparatus, recognizing that our living globe (Gaia) will inversely affect our living conditions pending the united actions carried across globally and cross-cul- turally. For example, current climate trends from the misuse of natural resources will serve as the ecological event apparatus that leads to global warming. MUS strives to understand the implications of the ecological event apparatus in relation to the Metropolis and spec- ulates on possible adaptive measures. Through our investigations, working side by side with our clients, we can identify cross-cultural solutions derived from a hybrid of multiple sustainable design precedents that have been implemented successfully. Understand- ing that different cities and different cultures evolve at a different pace, sustainability is conceived as reactions to the specificity brought to us by our clients from their respective cultures, countries, and sites. The products of these approaches lead to innovative results, ranging in scales and applications, large, small, landscape, or urban. Design Statement
