About

MCV is an architecture and design studio based in Brooklyn, New York. We create beauty within the complexity and restlessness of the city, embracing its contradictions, constraints, and energy as part of the design process.

We often work with existing structures to uncover new potential for the city’s interior spaces.

We approach architecture and renovation as a creative act, treating each project as an opportunity to reimagine the rhythms of everyday life and our relationship to the built environment.

MCV is licensed to practice architecture and provides services across all phases of design and construction. We believe in building lasting, collaborative relationships defined by transparency, trust, and care.
