COOPER CARRY
Since 1960, Cooper Carry has been dedicated to designing spaces that connect people to place. Inspired by our founder, Jerry Cooper, we approach every project with curiosity—asking the right questions to uncover the best solutions for our clients and the communities they serve. Our leadership team consists of both advocates and experts, empowered by decades of experience to shape environments that prioritize placemaking, civic space, and the well-being of communities, tenants, residents, and visitors.
Cooper carry’s Mixed-use ecosystem
Ecosystems bring many diverse contributors together to create something far beyond the capacity of one. They create and capture new and greater value. At Cooper Carry, we approach our work as a collaborative ecosystem. We have multiple studios and services that mix and match daily to provide each project the depth of expertise it needs to meet business objectives. Our breadth of experience goes far beyond broad building types. We offer a deeper level of expertise, engaging in more possibilities and offering more creative solutions. The mixed-use ecosystem allows us to help our clients create the platform on which tenants and target audiences can flourish.
Cooper Carry’s Hospitality Studio
Cooper Carry’s Hospitality Studio is comprised of architects who are industry thought leaders and designers whose sole focus is the design of hospitality projects. Our studio focuses on creating memorable experiences for the leisure, business and convention communities. In addition, we offer Historic Renovation and Adaptation expertise for projects that have historic components or where our clients wish to pursue historic tax credits. In all areas of our specialties our core foundation is to champion innovation, efficient planning and creative solutions. Together, we study the possibilities inherent in the relationships between buildings and their surroundings to best capture the potential of space and a unique sense of place.
