OUR STUDIO

Located on one of Shanghai’s most beautiful historical streets, our working space stands as a physical testament to one of Kokaistudios’ core beliefs and areas of practice; namely the requalification of existing spaces and bringing back to life environment in innovative ways.

WORK ENVIRONMENT

As a firm active is many fields of design we have attracted a multi-cultural group of passionate and talented architects and designers who are all “thinking minds” that work together to drive the creation of innovative projects.

With our strategic focus on only taking projects where we can fully apply our design vision to create interesting and important projects we have created a platform for our teams to learn and grow and be at the forefront of the design environment in China while working in a supportive and friendly environment.
