Our Design Team

Experience and Expertise

National Restaurant Design, Lead Designer, Frank Stocco Our design team is led by designer, Frank Stocco, who has been in the industry for 45 years, starting his career as a dishwasher, cook, Culinary Institute of America graduate (1975), chef, restaurant owner, and currently consultant/designer. The experience of the team is invaluable to understand our clients’ food service concept and vision and then translate that into a great design. With that experience, comes a responsibility to our clients’ needs and of course, budget. We are not the “final word” on design. Our process is truly collaborative — a really fun process.
