JEFFREY I. SHERMAN
Jeff is the founding principal of Sherman Architects, where his compositional acumen, intellectual rigor, and deep understanding of structure set the creative direction of the firm. His meticulous attention to detail and hands-on involvement throughout construction are among the chief reasons the firm consistently wins industry awards.
Prior to establishing Sherman Architects, Jeff was a co-founder and principal of Delson or Sherman Architects, P.C. Before that, he was a project manager for retail design at Pompei AD. For several years, he taught office and restaurant design studios at NY School of Interior Design. And he has written multiple articles for the magazines Metropolis, Vogue, In Style, and Feed.
Jeff earned a Master of Architecture from Yale University’s School of Architecture and a Bachelor of Arts from Brown University. He is an accredited LEED professional and a registered architect licensed in both New York and New Jersey.
Jeff’s volunteer work has included chairing the Design/Buildout Committee for the Greene Hill Food Coop through completion of construction. He has served for years as a Brown alumnus interviewer and annual fund volunteer. He was a board member of the Prospect Heights CSA. And he managed a successful campaign for safer crosswalks and bike lanes along Washington Avenue: initiating a traffic-calming design with the Department of Transportation, petitioning city officials, garnering press coverage, and seeing the project through completion.
