After receiving her MArch from Columbia University, Lindy Roy worked for 18 different architecture firms over the following 10 years. Finally in 2000 she founded ROY Co. in Manhattan's meatpacking district. Recognized by critics and museum curators for its research-driven architecture, the studio applies its innovative design approach to commercial, residential, and hotel projects. Roy's major projects have included the headquarters for Vitra USA, L'Oreal's Living Labs, an extreme heli-ski hotel in Alaska, the Okavango Delta Spa in Botswana, and the High Line 519, an 11-story condo building in Chelsea, New York, that is currently under construction.
