Educational Environments

Evolving. It’s a core element of our craft that we put into practice every day to push educational design and our company to build better, modern, purposeful learning spaces. Today, we’re evolving in a new way. After 50+ years of our name reflecting our founder, Frank Cooney, we are streamlining our name to Educational Environments, to better reflect our business and the decades-long passion we’ve had for education.

With heavy hearts, we share the news of the passing of our beloved brother and husband, Kevin Cooney, who bravely fought a private battle with cancer.

We cannot thank our community enough for the outpouring of support we have received. Your words mean so much as we work through this difficult time as a family, and family operated business.
