Corgan hosts presentations by vendors for different interiors and construction materials and systems, giving staff the opportunity to stay up-to-date on the latest materials and processes and earn continuing education credit.
Forum
This all-staff design presentation gives the architects and designers an opportunity to present their work and receive design critique from team members who are not directly involved with the project. Other design presentations are made by outside guests or by key figures in the firm, focusing on design philosophy and methodology.
Hugo
Elevating design research around the human experience, Hugo is an innovation incubator where new ideas can be imagined and brought to the world.
Create
Like an individual version of Hugo, the Create program allows employees to test and develop their own new ideas. We’re curious by nature and Create provides an opportunity to explore.
Explore
As a firm passionate about the human experience, we know that travel and immersion into new cities, cultures, and locations outside of our own experience can not only inspire, but also provide a shift in perspective. Explore is a travel study stipend awarded to one Corganite for individual study of architectural or interior design subjects.
Practice Technology Group
This team focuses on developing best-practice workflows using cutting-edge design software, including Revit, Rhino, and computational scripting tools through organized firmwide training efforts.

In-house storytellers who utilize animation, visual effects, and architectural visualization to celebrate Corgan’s work, people, and beliefs.
