Brunstad Architecture & Design Details
Jill Brunstad is a Manhattan-based registered architect. Her practice focuses on specialty upscale retail design as well as innovative residential design. With precision, and an eye towards incorporating materials for alternative uses, Jill's approach integrates environmentally sustainable materials and labor methods, and green production techniques, making all her designs earth-friendly. Prior to launching her practice in 1999, Jill worked with Italian architect Claudio Nardi, in Florence, Italy, and Sir Norman Foster and Partners in London, England. While working on large commercial tower development in Foster and Partners' London office, Jill gained a solid background in sustainability-maximizing designs. Foster and Partners has long been a leader in ecology and energy consumption in architecture, pioneering design solutions that use renewable sources and dramatically reduce their projects' carbon footprint. While working with Italian architect Claudio Nardi on global store designs for high end retailers such as Dolce & Gabbana, Jill utilized classic historic preservation and restoration techniques -- as the modern retail environments were often housed inside historic thirteenth century "palazzi". Jill frequently worked with local master artisans in Florence to produce custom retail and residential designs. Collaborating directly with the craftsmen, Jill successfully fused old-world techniques with a modern design sensibility. After spending 10 years abroad working for world-class design firms, Jill returned to her native New York City to open her own practice—specializing in upscale fashion and beauty retail design and residential design. Jill provides her clients with fresh ideas and innovative design solutions that capture both a lifestyle or a brand identity. Current clients include: Eileen Fisher, the eco-friendly women's apparel company, and Jurlique, the Australian-based, all natural skincare company, and Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spas.
