Our Philosophy
HPA designs around your needs
Our staff begins by gathering information to create a programmatic document with the goals, specific spaces, sizes, relationships, atmosphere, and functional requirements. We collaborate with the client to achieve what they need.
HPA believes every project is a team effort
HPA uses a hands-on approach to project planning. Each project is assigned a Principal Architect and Project Manager. As the project moves toward construction, the team at HPA does not change.
HPA understands there are boundaries
In architecture, HPA understands there are standards and regulations. We design within these boundaries.
HPA believes every project is unique
We approach each project as a unique opportunity to provide a functional and economical solution to meet a client’s needs.
