Koko Architecture + Design

KOKO Architecture + Design is a creative partnership established in 2000 by the husband and wife team of Adam Weintraub and Mishi Hosono. The world of KOKO encompasses architecture and interior design, as well as furniture, textile, and industrial design. In additional to their substantial portfolio in residential and commercial architecture and interiors, KOKO specializes in the design of early childhood education and children’s spaces and interiors. KOKO’s overall design philosophy is rooted in the essential idea of “PLAY”. Their design investigations into the world of children informs all of the projects in KOKO’s studio. As Mishi Hosono states, “The freedom we find in children’s artwork is a constant inspiration. By questioning our work with this innocent perspective, we expand our boundaries and discover new approaches toward architecture and design.” KOKO’s children’s portfolio includes interactive museum spaces, playgrounds, libraries, toy and furniture design, early childhood learning centers, and STEM and music educational facilities. KOKO believes strongly in sharing with the community, and lectures and leads workshops both in Manhattan and internationally, including notable presentations for the Cooper Hewitt Museum, the Scandinavia House, the New York Institute of Technology, and the Japan Society.
