The One Academy is a private institution of art and design with international accreditation and state awards. The founders of the academy, Tatsun Hoi and Veronika Ho, decided to open a university due to the lack of people with creative thinking: for the first 5 years, the academy was the most famous art university in Asia.

Graduates of The One Academy achieve great heights: among them are the creators of special effects for the films Avatar, The Incredible Hulk and other successful specialists in the field of design and graphics.
