WATG | SOSH
“Casino design is often perceived as focused on the gaming area. While undeniably essential, it serves as the foundation for a broader experience to create an engaging atmosphere. ”
About Us
In September 2024 SOSH was acquired by global hospitality design firm, WATG, making the Atlantic City office the 9th regional office in WATG’s global network. Both companies share a commitment to design excellence, intertwined with a mutual dedication to optimizing operational performance, project delivery, and talent development.
SOSH’s philosophy drives a design process that values exploration, visualization, and the contributions of multiple voices. Our firm delivers the best ideas that are the result of thoughtful collaboration and creative analysis. With headquarters in Atlantic City, NJ, SOSH has worked on a broad array of hospitality, corporate, education, healthcare, retail, dining, and entertainment projects.
We provide master planning, architectural design, interior design, and strong project management. SOSH’s success is based on the passion and purpose we bring to every design opportunity. We challenge convention, explore options, and generate the kind of unexpected solutions that are the hallmark of our practice.
