"Back to the 2014 AD100 List\n\nOffering a sexy take on modernism, Russell Groves's work is at once sybaritic and meticulous. \"The dynamic tension produces sophisticated, elegant environments infused with warmth and ease,\" says the Manhattan-based architect and designer, whose emphasis on refined materials and innovative finishes owes a debt to the luxe-modern creations of Eileen Gray, Jean-Michel Frank, and Paul Dupre\u0301-Lafon. An alumnus of the studios of Richard Meier and Peter Marino, Groves opened his own firm in 1996, making his mark with high-profile retail spaces like the New York flagship for Coach and a Shanghai outpost for Tiffany &amp;amp; Co. that features a cantilevered blue-box fac\u0327ade. He is currently working on a beach house for Michael Kors, a 200-acre Napa Valley estate, and the 32-story Halcyon apartment tower in Manhattan. As comfortable designing for a suburban family as he is for a global fashion brand, Groves imbues every project with resplendent glamour. srussellgroves.com\n\nMeet the other architects and designers on the 2014 AD100 list."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
