To say that GRADE is a full-service architect/design firm doesn't quite get across the enormity of the company's wide range of talents. The partners at GRADE, Thomas Hickey and Edward Yedid, have proven themselves experts in most areas of architectural and interior design, creating townhouses, homes, restaurants, buildings, apartments, lofts, studios, retail spaces, and even furniture. In all cases, Edward and Thomas take a deeply attuned approach when working with clients in order to successfully express collaborative aesthetic ideas. As Thomas said recently, “Design is more than the arrangement of formal elements, it’s the recognition of a uniquely articulated experience, informed by practice and innovated by nature.”
In my recent interview for JustLuxe, Thomas and Edward discussed their mission and vision of pushing conventional boundaries by infusing a more human approach to their projects. Their focus is to have their work tell a story about the client’s lifestyle, thereby creating personal inspirational experiences through their designs.
