About Me

Wonder City Studio is led by artist Phil Thompson, with almost a decade of architecture, history, and buildings rendered in pen and ink.

What began in Chicago now continues in historic Lancaster, Pennsylvania, but the focus has never changed: the character of a place and the stories it holds. Wonder City is about a passion for capturing the places and homes worth preserving.

The studio's work has been featured in the Apartment Therapy, Chicago magazine, Business Insider, Block Club Chicago, and many others.

Phil lives in an 1870s rowhouse with his wife, Katie, and dog, Vincent.
