designed by SHoP architects and interiors firm studio sofield, 111 west 57th street pays respect to its historic context with a ‘classically new york’ expression. the new building is rooted in the values built into steinway hall: its finely-tuned crafting of space and structure and the careful stitching of old and new. while sharing and formalizing these values with developers JDS development group, property markets group, and spruce capital partners, the design team at SHoP architects comments: ‘by pushing the historic building forward and moving the tower back we would be able to celebrate the history and at the same time create a new moment — a rebirth — for the old building and at the same time tell a new story of skyscrapers in the city.’
西57街111号的陶土细节设计集功能性和美感于一体。如果没有现代技术就不可能制造出这种元素，但这种手工材料已经为城市的建筑增添了一个多世纪的光彩。
每个面板都是单独铸造，烧制和手工上釉的。这个细致的系统，既重复又多样，由数千块覆盖在塔楼东、西立面的铸板组成，创造出一个光彩夺目的条纹图案，由SHoP设计的26种面板类型组合成一个和谐的整体，诗意地表达成一个和弦音符。
the terra cotta detailing at 111 west 57th street is integrated both for its functionality and its aesthetic beauty. while the fabrication of this element is impossible without the use of modern technology, the artisanal material has graced the city’s buildings for over a century. each panel is individually cast, fired, and hand glazed. the meticulous system, both repetitive and varied, is comprised of thousands of cast panels that clad the east and west facades of the tower, creating a radiantly striated pattern and accommodating subtle openings is glass and bronze. twenty six SHoP-designed panel types combine into an harmonious whole, poetically expressed like notes into a chord.
