Kohn Shnier architects was started in 1990 as a modest non-specialization-focused firm. The work is distinguished by its pragmatism laced with inventiveness and often humor. The press has regarded the work as neither too formal nor fashionable due to a balance between tradition and originality.
The practice has received several accolades, including nominations for the renowned International Chrysler Design Award and the Emerging Practice Award from the New York Architectural League. The permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York includes their work. Source: Kohn Shnier Architects
