One Domino Square in Williamsburg is Annabelle Selldorf's first residential skyscraper. With its launch, the New York-based architect (and principal of her eponymous studio) applies the pared-down elegance and blend of minimalism and sophistication that are signatures of her work, spanning art galleries such as Hauser & Wirth’s 22nd Street, residential buildings such as 42 Crosby Street in SoHo, and the high rise housing typology.
Commissioned by Two Trees Management, a Brooklyn-based, family-owned real-estate development firm, One Domino Square is located right on the Williamsburg waterfront, on the site of the former Domino Sugar Factory, and offers breathtaking views of Williamsburg Bridge. The new building is immediately recognisable thanks to its iridescent, porcelain-clad façades, designed to interact with natural light to assume a dynamic and ever-changing presence on the city’s skyline.
