Jessica Pleasants, Director Jessica approaches interior design as both a creative and deeply collaborative process—working closely with Okan from the earliest planning stages to shape homes where architecture, finishes, furnishings, and daily life feel fully integrated. Her perspective has been shaped by a lifelong exposure to quality furnishings, antiques, and collectables, informing a curatorial approach that layers texture, art, vintage pieces, and custom elements to create interiors that feel personal rather than prescribed. She is particularly drawn to the work of local artisans and craftspeople, often pairing contemporary interventions with restored or time-tested furnishings that bring depth, familiarity, and character to a space. Equally important is Jessica’s background in construction project management, which informs a pragmatic understanding of how complex renovations unfold. From prioritizing decisions along the project timeline to coordinating the many moving parts of execution, she brings clarity and momentum to the process—helping clients navigate ambitious renovations with confidence and ease.

A selection of work shaped by different contexts and scales—from New York residences to international architectural and planning efforts. Led by Okan Oncel, AIA, this body of work reflects a consistent approach: a clear design idea carried through with rigor. Resolving complexity—spatially, technically, and materially—is central to the process, whether at the scale of a single room or a much larger environment. That same discipline ultimately serves a simple goal: creating spaces that feel resolved, intuitive, and built to last.

Okan Oncel, Principal and Co-Founder With over two decades of experience spanning supertall towers, institutional work, and high-end residential design, Okan brings both technical rigor and creative clarity to every project. His approach is rooted in a deep understanding of how buildings come together—shaped early on through time spent on job sites and refined through leadership roles at globally recognized firms. Today, that experience is applied with precision to private residences—guiding complex renovations and full-scope projects with a focus on thoughtful planning, refined detailing, and spaces that feel both elevated and deeply livable.

In the primary bath, clarity was the guiding principle. Contemporary detailing is kept deliberately quiet—precise alignments, warm millwork, and stone chosen for depth rather than drama. The result is a space that feels current yet grounded, designed to remain relevant as tastes evolve rather than chase a moment.

Back on the #upperwestside -- this bath looks deceptively simple. In reality, it’s an exercise in discipline. Every tile course and grout line was carefully aligned across planes, openings, and fixtures so the geometry reads as continuous rather than busy. When the detailing disappears, the architecture can do its work—clean, graphic, and quietly exacting.

Honored to be featured in New York Style, a newly released hardcover by @loftpublications celebrating the city’s most compelling architecture and interiors. Two of our projects are included—each shaped by a deep respect for architecture, proportion, and the way people actually live. Grateful to see this work in print, and among such inspiring company. #NewYorkStyle #InteriorDesign #NYInteriors #DesignInPrint #EditorialInteriors

This bedroom emerged from the quirks of combining two apartments — a sliver of space that could have been awkward, but instead became one of the home’s most memorable moments. Rather than hide the irregular beams, we leaned into them, letting the geometry frame a serene nook for reading, working, or simply retreating. Proof that the unexpected corners of a plan often hold the most potential. #InteriorArchitecture #NYCDesign #ApartmentCombination #CreativeConstraints #ArchitectureAndInteriors #FoundSpace #SmartPlanning #DesignDetails #ResidentialDesign #UpperEastSideHomes #NYCLuxuryLiving #doubledrenching #detailsmatter Executed by Renovyt Inc Styled by @macairekristoph Photographed by @reganwoodphoto

A small space elevated through detail. Here, our architecture and interiors work hand-in-hand—the scalloped tile, custom ribbed millwork, and sleek lighting combine to create a powder room that feels refined, warm, and quietly luxurious. Every line and material choice is considered, continuing the home’s holistic design language. #ArchitectureAndInteriors #NYCDesign #ResidentialDesign #LuxuryInteriors #CustomMillwork #Materiality #DesignDetails #NYCLuxuryHomes #UpperEastSideApartment Execution by Renovyt, Inc.

Transitions were designed with the same precision as the rooms themselves — framing views, balancing material warmth, and creating a sense of quiet continuity throughout the home. Every threshold reflects our integrated approach to architecture and interiors, where spatial clarity and refined detailing work in harmony. #ArchitectureAndInteriors #ResidentialDesign #ArchitecturalDetails #IntegratedDesign #DesignExcellence #ModernCraft #CustomMillwork #AwardNominated #LitchfieldMagazine #SpatialDesign #ArchitecturalFraming #UpperWestSide #UWSprewar #NYCapartment #GutReno #DetailsMatter Architecture & Interior Design @poparchitecturedpc Execution @renovyt.inc Styling @macairekristoph Photography @reganwoodphoto

Every line, joint, and reveal was deliberately composed — a study in precision and restraint. The cabinetry aligns seamlessly with the architecture, creating an elegant visual rhythm that feels calm and exacting. We obsessed over the details so that the space itself could feel effortless. Custom white oak cabinetry, blackened steel edgepulls and plank white oak flooring and quartz countertops lend a timeless aesthetic for this classic #UpperWestSide #prewar apartment.

The kitchen is conceived as an integral piece of the architecture — as thoughtfully composed as the rooms it opens onto. Designed as a natural extension of the living and dining spaces, it blends custom millwork, integrated appliances, and warm finishes into a unified composition. Meticulous attention to detail resulted in a kitchen that feels seamless — quiet, inviting, and part of the whole.
