Cooper Joseph

Prior to setting up in New York in 2008, Chris Cooper was at SOM, while Wendy Evans Joseph was with Pei Cobb Freed. Many of the firm's projects exist at the intersection of architecture and art, such as Starlight, an installation of floating LED chips. The Writer's Studio in upstate NY is a sublime piece of functional sculpture, while the Webb Chapel Park Pavilion in Texas resonates with a rich yellow interior.
