The firm was recently profiled in Architectural Record's December 2006 Design Vanguard award issue, selected as one of top 10 emerging design firms in the world. In 2007 Bercy Chen Studio LP was part of the Young Americans exhibition at the Deutsche Architektur Museum in Frankfurt, Germany.

Thomas & Calvin have also been invited guest speakers at the National Building Museum in Washington D.C.

Due to this unique approach, the work has received national and international attention. Bercy Chen Studio won the prestigious Emerging Voices prize from the Architectural League of New York in 2006.
