CetraRuddy Architecture is a New York City-based architecture and interior design firm, who has worked on projects in the United States, especially New York City; Europe; and the Middle East. It provides architectural and interior design services for residences, hotels, schools, and cultural institutions. The firm was founded in 1987 by John Cetra and Nancy J. Ruddy and is led by four principals and three associate principals with a staff of over 100 architects and interior designers.
Projects
CetraRuddy designed One Madison, a 50-story "sliver building" condominium tower on East 23rd Street at Madison Avenue, south of Madison Square Park. In 2014, the building received the Architizer A+ Jury Award for Residential High Rise, and since 2013, it has been part of the "Sky High & the Logic of Luxury" exhibition at the Skyscraper Museum in New York City.[[File:ARO Building 240 W52 fr 9th Av jeh.jpg|thumb|upright|The [[ARO (building)|ARO]] building]]
The firm is also responsible for the adaptive reuse of residences of the Walker Tower, a former telephone switch building in Chelsea, Manhattan, and for the new Lincoln Square Synagogue building, which received an Honorable Mention for Religious Institution for Interior Design magazine's 2013 Best of Year Awards.
