Nelligan White Architects

Nelligan White Architects PLLC is a New York City firm recognized for pioneering work in energy-conscious & sustainable design. This comprehensive practice of architecture includes new construction, master planning, and the reconstruction & adaptive re-use of historic structures. The firm’s projects range from the design of individual pieces of furniture to institutional projects over 1.2 million square feet. Over the last ten years, Nelligan White has designed and administered construction for projects totaling over a half billion dollars in value. Most of this work has been for educational, institutional and commercial clients. The collaboration of Principals Bruce G. Nelligan, T. Michael White and Jake LaChapelle is based on the shared belief that good architecture should enhance the quality of life for the individuals and communities involved. Integral to this belief is the architect’s responsibility to incorporate environmentally sustainable solutions into every aspect of the design process. Educated as modernists, they believe independent research and an in-depth understanding of both modern and traditional building technologies can beneficially inform the contemporary architectural practice.
