During his nearly four-decade-long career in architecture, Andy Cohen has left an indelible imprint on the industry and at his firm, Gensler. He joined Gensler 36 years ago as a designer focused on sustainability. Since taking on the role of collaborative co-CEO in 2005, along with Diane Hoskins, Cohen has helped grow the firm into a global powerhouse racking up almost $1.2 billion in revenue in 2015.
“With Andy’s guidance, Gensler has been recognized as not only the largest, but also the most admired design firm in the U.S.,” says Rob Jernigan, Gensler’s co-regional managing principal for the Southwest. “Over the course of his career at Gensler, Andy has accelerated our culture of design excellence and innovation.”
