Creativity lives in Kirksey.

Our beloved Studio Tour series returns to help our community learn more about our local studios, firms and agencies. Explore Houston’s creative landscape with us through evening tours of local spaces while you listen and learn from studio owners and working professionals.

AIGA and SEGD collaboration at Kirksey Architecture is a unique opportunity for professionals and emerging designers to engage in an inspiring mixer that transcends traditional design boundaries. This event fosters meaningful conversations that encourage the exchange of ideas and innovation by bringing together individuals from signage, experiential graphic design (EGD), wayfinding, and broader design disciplines such as digital, print, and branding. Participants will be able to explore fresh perspectives, build interdisciplinary partnerships, and discover new ways to enhance user experiences through cross-disciplinary collaboration.

About Kirksey

In 1971, a young architectural intern named John Kirksey, just one year out of college, with a single project and an entrepreneurial spirit, set out to create the firm now known as Kirksey Architecture — a leader in the architectural field in Texas. What started out as John and a couple of friends working on an independent project in a makeshift studio set up in his attic, has grown into a multi-specialized practice more than 200 strong, with offices in Houston, Austin and Dallas.

Parking/Access

Parking will be available in the front of the building. Street parking is available on surrounding streets, and rideshare and carpooling are encouraged.
