What Makes RAMSA Special

Classical Revival

RAMSA leads the classical revival in contemporary architecture. While modernism dominated the late 20th century, Stern championed traditional forms — columns, pediments, proportion, and symmetry — proving that classical architecture remains relevant and desirable in the 21st century.

Luxury Residential Towers

RAMSA's residential towers define the skylines of Manhattan, Miami, and beyond. 15 Central Park West set records as the most expensive building in New York history. 220 Central Park South surpassed it. These buildings combine classical aesthetics with modern amenities and floor plans.

Academic & Cultural Work

Beyond residential, RAMSA has designed libraries, museums, and academic buildings for Yale, Dartmouth, the University of Virginia, and the George W. Bush Presidential Center. Each project reflects the institution's identity while elevating its architectural presence.

Dean of Yale Architecture

Robert A.M. Stern served as Dean of the Yale School of Architecture from 1998 to 2016, shaping a generation of architects. His tenure emphasized the importance of drawing, history, and context — values that permeate every RAMSA project.

"Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness."
— Frank Gehry (but RAMSA agrees)
