STOA Architects is a multidisciplinary and multi award winning design firm led by Principal Architect CC Lee. STOA Architects is considered to be among the leading Architectural and Interior Design Firms of Houston.
Our name and philosophy are inspired by Stoicism—a belief in clarity, purpose, and enduring impact. Just as the ancient Stoa was a place of gathering, thought, and civic life, we design architecture that brings people together and enriches the communities it serves. With a focus on functionality, sustainability, and timeless design, our work spans educational, civic, and commercial spaces that support learning, working, and human connection.
