Paperfarm Inc was started in 2012 by architects Jarrett Boor and Daniel Yao as a design intensive practice headquartered in NYC with offices now in North Stonington, CT and Taipei, Taiwan. With a range of work in varied scale, Paperfarm seeks to explore design solutions to complex program and site constraints within urban and non-urban environments. Design is a multi-disciplinary effort and Paperfarm eagerly overlaps rigorous research, materiality, program, form and construction technology to address each client and project individually.
We remain active in exploring design as a process that yields unique constructed environments. We have completed single family residences locally in New York and Connecticut as well as in Taiwan. We currently have mixed-use, multi-family and commercial design in development.
