"As a nonprofit organization renovating an entire building, Bryson’s appreciation of our mission, his community involvement, intelligence and experience, and his professionalism and ability to think ahead and manage costs/value engineer is nothing short of remarkable. And he is sincerely a “good guy” making our entire construction experience a thoroughly enjoyable one."

CARLOS SERRA

"Construction and real estate inherently carries many risks. After collaborating with Bryson and his team for over 10 years, I quickly learned to appreciate their no-nonsense and transparent approach to project delivery and risk management. I think it is generally accepted that there will very likely be issues on any construction project. The true test of any consultant is how they respond to a challenging situation. His team takes a meticulous, proactive and solutions driven approach which is critical in ensuring the success of any project."

“Construction is extremely complex and Bryson’s gift to the industry is his ability to work with a holistic approach. He views through multiple lenses and he takes that into creative in problem solving. This type of leadership is passed down to all his select staff. Bryson is knowledgeable but also insightful and someone with passion and commitment.”

“Collaborating with Bryson over the course of many years, we have enjoyed a high level of thinking and care for the details that promote problem solving while achieving the design vision of a project.”

JIM DUNN

“Modular construction is distributive. Not necessarily the outcome, but rather the process. To work with The Cooperative LA, who understood the nuances and differences of modular design, preconstruction and implementation - was a breath of fresh air. Quite honestly, The Cooperative’s ability to navigate the disruptive nature of modular construction is what the modular industry and LA housing market has been needing for years.”

JIM DUNN
PRESIDENT, STACK MODULAR
HOWARD KOZLOFF

“I’ve worked with Bryson and his team on multiple projects over several years. They consistently meet budgets and timelines, and are highly responsive and communicative when the inevitable questions pop up along the way. They are clearly knowledgeable and relish problem solving, which make them ideal partners for our projects. I trust them and I am always confident that they are seeking ideal solutions and will follow through on work as promised.”

LARRY KORMAN

“I have worked with Bryson and The Cooperative LA team for over the past decade in transforming our two AKA properties in Beverly Hills and West Hollywood. Bryson and his team are both competent and compassionate, understanding the need to both meet budget and schedule while at the same time the desire to create high design and style! I highly recommend working with this team as they are collaborative and bring in the best vendors to do the best job!”

LARRY KORMAN
PRESIDENT, AKA HOTELS & HOTEL RESIDENCES
GREG SALMERI

“We met Bryson six years ago through a referral from our architecture firm RKA. We had a large and rather difficult project ahead of us and struggled with how to make it through the process while keeping our existing businesses running and unaffected. Our task was to turn a DTLA scrapyard into a flagship showroom, nursery and events center. Needless to say, Bryson and his amazing team made the process painless and delivered an incredibly well constructed and beautiful, building on time and without the anticipated angst. We still get remarkable reviews on this project to this day!”

GREG SALMERI

DERICK STACE NAUGHTON

“Sean inherited several very challenging construction projects underway: delayed, no budgets, unqualified contractors, no specs. At the time, we didn’t even understand what a difficult job it was: fixing ongoing projects, launching new projects effectively, and still hitting quite aggressive timeline targets. Sean made an immediate impact and built a capital-efficient, super-fast development capability that became a competitive advantage for the company. Even with bad news or missteps, I learned I was always getting a straight story with Sean. I trust him immensely and would go well out of my way to work with Sean again.”
