How to Renovate in NYC

Hi, I’m Lauren Schlesinger. I am a Registered Architect and Interior Designer in New York City and a co-owner of Glickman Schlesinger Architects. For the past 15 years, we have guided our clients through the daunting process of design and construction in New York City, filing over 150 jobs at the Department of Buildings. 

I spend my time designing buildings and interiors, but I have learned over the years that a big part of my enjoyment in my work is bringing peace of mind to my clients. Renovating can be overwhelming. I help my clients get through the process by clarifying the necessary steps of the building process, educating them about timelines, raising awareness about common mistakes, and helping them to make decisions. I wanted to make this information available to people who do not have or want a full-service architect, but would benefit from my twenty years of experience in the design and construction industry.

I offer personalized consulting services to guide you through your own renovations, no matter how small or large the project. Whether you are considering purchasing a home or office, are furnishing a newly renovated space, or are somewhere in between, I can be in your back pocket, answering all your questions and helping you make a plan.
