In 1976, after graduating from Seattle University and studying in London and Rome, he opened the Steven Holl Architects studio in New York.
In his important essay Anchoring (1989), Holl defines the "dialectical relationships" between buildings and places. As an essayist and theorist, Holl has written several books, including Parallax (2000), Urbanisms, working with doubt (2009), and Scale (2012). In 2014 he received the prestigious Praemium Imperiale in the architecture category.
His projects in the United States include the Pool House in Scarsdale (1981), apartment in the MoMa tower in New York (1986), showroom for the Page Collection (1986), Stretto House in Dallas (1992), offices of FROM Shaw & Co (1992), the high-impact façade for Storefront for Art and Architecture (1993), St. Ignatius Chapel in Seattle (1997), New York University Department of Philosophy (2004-2007), Museum of Nelson-Atkins Art of Kansas City (2007) and the expansion of the John F.

In Asia, the single-family and community dwellings in Japan are noteworthy: the Void Space in Fukuoka (1991) or the Makuhari Bay New Town housing complex in Chiba (1996). In Beijing, Holl created the Linked Hybrid residential complex (2009), consisting of apartments distributed in eight towers connected by covered and suspended bridges. In Shenzhen, I designed a horizontal skyscraper: a multifunctional and "floating" structure equal in length to the height of the Empire State Building and surrounded by a garden inspired by the designs of the Brazilian landscaper Roberto Burle Marx.
