WORKac, founded by Amale Andraos and Dan Wood, was named the #1 design firm in the US by Architect Magazine and Firm of the Year by AIA NYS. WORKac has achieved acclaim for projects such as the DvF Headquarters in New York and the Blaffer Museum of Art in Houston, as well as their contributions to the Chicago Architecture Biennale and for the Museum of Modern Art. Current projects include two community centers in Mexico City, the North Boulder Public Library, and a new space for the Peoples Theater Project.

We work with a shared belief in the power of architecture to engage environmental and social concerns, and in the power of design to create new possibilities for the future. We work throughout the US and around the world with a deep engagement with local cultures, climates and histories. Our focus is on public, cultural and civic projects that re-invent how we live, work and share together. We embrace collaboration to develop intelligent and playful integration between architecture, landscape and ecological systems. 

We believe in fostering social sustainability: creating new typologies, shared infrastructures and new forms of collective experiences that support underrepresented voices in re-imagining what ‘public’ can mean at a time of increased privatization. In these uncertain times, we believe in architecture and design’s capacities to draw resolute realism together with polemical optimism as a means to move beyond the projected and towards the possible.
