Some buildings hold secrets. The New Yorker Hotel is one of them.
On Thursday, June 4th, we are gathering inside the New Yorker Hotel itself to launch our newest creation: The New Yorker — Young Architects Kit, a book and hands-on building kit for curious minds from 8 to 80.
The evening celebrates two communities we deeply admire: the winners of the SARA NY Design Award and the New York AI Architecture Award — New York City architects shaping the future of the built environment. The ArkDesign.AI team, including our founder, will be distributing books personally to the New York architectural community.
About the Kit
We believe in experiences. In moments shared with the people we love. In stories told together, and things built together.
The New Yorker Kit is part book, part Lego-like creation. It tells the story of one of New York’s most iconic 1930s Art Deco towers — the building at the corner of 8th Avenue, between 34th and 35th Streets — through original photographs, architectural history, and hands-on building in ArkDesign.AI.
Who Is This For?
Everyone. Read it with your child, your partner, your parent. Explain what architecture is. Learn about history together. Then build it yourselves and discover what it feels like to design a building from the ground up.
