COOPER CARRY
Since 1960, Cooper Carry has strived to create spaces that connect people to place. Like our founder Jerry Cooper, we do this by being curious and asking questions to determine the best solutions for our clients and the communities they serve.
Cooper Carry’s leaders are advocates and authorities for their specialties, empowered by decades of expertise to make decisions that prioritize placemaking, civic space, and the greater good of communities, tenants, residents, and visitors.
COOPER CARRY’S MIXED-USE ECOSYSTEM MAKES US UNIQUELY QUALIFIED
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.

HIGHER EDUCATION
Curiosity Changes Everything. The Cooper Carry Higher Education Studio loves the poetry of a good problem. Our work is both very specialized and very personal, connecting us directly with the people who will use these buildings at particularly creative and formative parts of their lives: during discovery, throughout innovation, and while transforming themselves from student to professional and the world from a place without their insight to one that benefits from it.
We approach complexity with creativity, process with personality, and everything with an endless loop of energy that flows from our clients’ passion for their work to ours for making it real through brilliant building design.
