Tsoi/Kobus & Assoc. awarded 4 projects

Cambridge-based Tsoi/Kobus & Associates (TK&A) has been awarded four new commissions. TK&A has been selected by Boston College to design its new Stokes Hall, intended to be a "home base" for the humanities on the Chestnut Hill campus. In addition to housing humanities departments the 160,000 s/f building will contain 36 classrooms and gathering space for formal and informal activities. The project is part of BC's institutional master plan and will extend the English Collegiate Gothic style that characterizes the school's Middle Campus. Oklahoma City University School of Law has selected TK&A to design its new law school in downtown Oklahoma City. The project will involve the historic rehabilitation of a 170,000 s/f former manufacturing building into new academic and administrative space. TK&A is partnered with Frankfurt Short Bruza of Oklahoma City for the project. For Suffolk University in Boston, TK&A is designing a student café and lounge. Set to open soon, the space is intended to become a social hub for students on the urban campus. TK&A also is designing a new four-story, 46,000 s/f corporate headquarters for All Care VNA & Hospice in Lynn.
