About the Firm

Morris Adjmi Architects (MA) is an award-winning multidisciplinary design firm offering a comprehensive approach to planning, architecture, interior design, and art. Guided by a passion for placemaking, we’ve designed over 27 million square feet of built space in more than 25 cities throughout the U.S. and abroad. Our portfolio spans residential, hospitality, commercial, arts & culture, and institutional markets, with expertise in adaptive reuse, new construction, entitlement and zoning support, urban planning, interiors, and art services.

Our Architecture practice is shaped by MA’s Conversation-Driven Design Ethos, rooted in dialogue and collaboration. We believe the most meaningful designs emerge through an exploration of context, balanced composition, and creative vision. This ethos drives us to create projects that are timeless yet contemporary, layered with materials and details that enrich the client experience. By blending architectural rigor with artistry, we craft environments that inspire, endure, and tell a story.

  • Participate in project meetings and design reviews as part of active project teams.
  • Observe coordination with consultants and multidisciplinary teams.
  • Gain exposure to the relationship between design intent and technical execution.
  • Support updates to drawings and models based on team redlines and feedback.

Firm Culture & Benefits

At MA, co-op students are integrated into the life of the office and encouraged to participate fully in our collaborative culture. We host weekly team lunches, firm-wide On-the-Boards presentations, a Beautiful Spaces offsite design inspiration series, and in-house art exhibitions. Co-op students are paired with mentors, supported in their professional development, and exposed to all aspects of practice.

This is a paid, full-time Winter 2027 co-op position.

Qualifications
  • Currently enrolled in a professional Bachelor of Architecture or Master of Architecture program.
  • Strong design sensibility and curiosity about the built environment.
  • Proficiency in design and visualization software, including Revit, AutoCAD, Rhino, SketchUp, and Adobe Creative Suite.
