Atelier Cho Thompson

Thank you Interior Design magazine for recognizing our work on The Kinkaid School as a Best of Year Finalist for Early Education. Together with StudioRED, we set out to create a timeless campus that fosters wellness, excellence, and entrepreneurship. Drawing on our expertise in hospitality and innovative workplaces, we elevated the educational experience to enhance engagement and prepare students for a world beyond the school. Our design of the lobby, student centers, alumni center, library, corridors, boardroom, administration, and café offers multiple modes of learning and gathering through adaptable furnishings. These spaces support a wide range of programs for the entire community, allowing the architecture itself to cultivate the creativity, adaptability, and agility essential for the next generation of leaders.

At the Arc70 office, unique design elements - a sculptural conference room, integrated planting, adaptable coworking zones, and curated art - create more than just an office. They compose an environment that embodies comfort, creativity, and connection. Every detail is intended to spark inspiration while offering a sense of ease, reminding employees and visitors alike that the workplace can be both a place of productivity and renewal.

We were honored to partner with The Kinkaid School—Houston’s oldest independent coed school—and StudioRED Architects on its transformative new 250,000-sf high school and athletics project. Together, we designed a timeless campus that inspires wellness, innovation, and entrepreneurship.

Our practice includes graphics, interiors, and architecture, and project signage crosses between these disciplines. Here are a few of our favorite recent signage projects, from hand-painted lettering to lasercut wood to translucent resin.
