JRS Architect receives recognition from Interior Design magazine

JRS Architect, P.C., with offices in Mineola, N.Y., New York City, and Princeton, N.J., has again achieved national recognition, garnering a spot on Interior Design magazine's Top 100 Giants for the fourth consecutive year. The firm also ranked among the top 40 U. S. interior design firms for healthcare, the third time that the firm has accomplished this. "We appreciate the recognition that Interior Design magazine has provided us," said John Sorrenti, F.A.I.A., founder and president of JRS. "Our continued rankings among the giants of our industry are indicative of the growth that we have experienced and anticipate continuing to experience." The magazine calculated its rankings based on interior design fees, including all types of interiors work, including commercial and residential; all aspects of a firm's interior design practice, from strategic planning and programming to design and project management, and fees paid to a firm for work performed by employees and independent contractors who are "full-time staff equivalent." JRS ranked No. 77 on the magazine's list with 45 interior design professionals on staff for the reporting period. Last year, JRS was No. 95 with a staff of 28. JRS' interior design clients include some of the New York area's leading financial institutions, law firms, commercial building owners and healthcare providers. Meanwhile, JRS again ranked in the Top 40 of all U. S. interior design firms in the magazine's third annual listing of firms in healthcare interior design.
