SHoP Architects was recognized by Fast Company as the “Most Innovative Architecture Firm in the World”, and is currently designing the new Uber headquarters in San Francisco as well as the Fannie Mae headquarters in downtown DC. ODA helped with the design of the interiors at JBG’s West Half project and is known for its imaginative design for new residential projects around the country. The work of Rafael Viñoly Architects includes 432 Park Avenue, one of the tallest residential buildings in the world.
