Biographical sketch

New York City architectural firm founded in 1972 by Frances Halsband and Robert Kliment. Their first works were houses, offices, and small public projects in the town of Woodstock, New York. Their first academic commission was in 1974 when they were commissioned for the design of graduate student housing at Columbia University. Since that time, the firm's work expanded to include master planning, historic preservation, and adaptive reuse for educational, cultural, civic, government buildings and sites.
