Biographical Info

Studio Gang is an internationally recognized architecture and urban design practice founded and led by MacArthur Fellow Jeanne Gang. Based in Chicago with offices in New York, San Francisco, and Paris, the Studio works as a collective of over 100 architects, designers, and planners that use an iterative, research-based design process to create places that strengthen relationships between people, communities, and the natural world.

Studio Gang’s diverse, award-winning portfolio includes cultural centers, public spaces, and strategic framework plans, across architecture, planning, interiors, and exhibitions. Notable among these are the American Museum of Natural History’s Richard Gilder Center for Science, Education, and Innovation in New York and the reimagined Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts in Little Rock. Studio Gang also develops research, publications, and exhibitions that push design’s ability to create public awareness and give rise to change—a practice the Studio calls “actionable idealism.” Jeanne Gang’s most recent book, “The Art of Architectural Grafting,” provides a new framework for bringing new life to older structures.

The Studio has been honored with numerous awards, including AIA California’s 2025 Firm of the Year, Fast Company’s Most Innovative Company in Architecture, and Architizer’s A+ Firm of the Year Award.
