They are fellows of MacDowell and The New York Foundation for the Arts. Ersela and Stephen each hold a Master of Science in Advanced Architectural Design from Columbia University GSAPP.

Their work has been exhibited around the world, including at the Venice Biennale, the Hong KongShenzhen Biennale, the Berlin Biennale, and the Storefront for Art and Architecture, among others.
