In the architecture trade, a firm can moil in anonymity for years, even decades, and then, as though from one day to the next, they seem to be absolutely everywhere. And so, it would appear, the moment has arrived for BKSK Architects, a New York firm that has been in business since 1984.
A few weeks back, visiting 40 Bond St., I noticed a far more interesting, though far less talkedabout, apartment building across the way at 25 Bond St. On inquiring as to the architectural firm that designed it, I first heard the name BKSK Architects. A week later, I went to see the new visitors center at the Queens Botanical Garden, and once again was told that it was by BKSK Architects. Then, this past week, I was walking down 72nd Street, between Columbus and Amsterdam Avenue, when I saw the nearly completed Harsen House, on the south side of the street. It too was by BKSK Architects.
