Buffalo, New York · Est. 2022
From historic restoration to bold contemporary new builds, our architectural team brings precision, scholarship, and creative vision to every project — classic or modern, renovation or new construction.
Our landscape team designs and builds outdoor environments that extend the architecture into the natural world — formal gardens, sculptural plantings, lit terraces, and grounds that endure through every season.
Plattform's in-house team of master carpenters and specialty tradespeople is what sets us apart. We don't hand off to a general contractor — our own hands are on every project, from the first framed wall to the finest finished detail. This is the difference between a house built and a home crafted.
Our Philosophy
Two disciplines, one vision. Architecture and landscape are not separate conversations — they are a single act of making.
Jeff grew up in Buffalo — shaped by its extraordinary architectural heritage and the ambition of a city with one of the greatest Olmsted parks in the world. He studied at Cornell University's College of Architecture, Art and Planning, earning his Master of Architecture, then spent a decade practicing in New York City. In 2022 he returned home to found Plattform: a multidisciplinary design-build practice built on the belief that architecture, landscape, and craft belong together under one roof.
We take on a carefully selected number of projects each year. If you have a vision for your home, we'd like to hear it.
