Working with Cooper, Robertson over the years has been a very positive professional experience for me and I hope to continue the relationship. Alex Cooper is an erudite planner and urbanist. He's the best at what he does. His partner Jaque Robertson is a great resource in his knowledge of history and the development of cities and the architectural possibilities of cities.

Frank Gehry is not alone in his praise and admiration for the work of Cooper, Robertson & Partners. The firm'simpressive body of work since its establishment in 1979 has resulted in an admirable array of design awards; in fact,the firm was the first to receive National AIA Honor Awards in both architecture and urban design in the same year.Cooper, Robertson & Partners was founded on the bold premise that it could best serve its clients and, at the same time, meet its own professional goals by pursuing excellence in the two closely related fields of architecture and urban design. The underlying and unifying theme of the firm's work is the belief that architecture, planning,landscape, and urban design are interconnected disciplines that must be taken together if lasting quality and value are to be achieved.

This first major monograph of the work of Cooper,Robertson & Partners vividly demonstrates the success of this design philosophy.

Cooper, Robertson's award-winning architectural work encompasses a wide array of corporate, commercial,academic, retail, resort, mixed-use, and residential facilities.An impressive selection of the firm's urban design work is also presented here and includes everything from designing entire towns, new communities, and campuses from scratch to re-imagining existing cities, waterfronts, campuses, and public open spaces.
