HDS Architecture, Inc.

The firm's architects, designers, illustrators and technology specialists are experienced in understanding the vision of each client, and in taking that vision to a better reality.
By infusing the ideas, values and business needs of its clients into a design from project inception, HDS is able to deliver a service that stands apart. Communication is key to this approach: we ask questions about issues of economics, aesthetics, user needs, and desired outcomes. We then present ideas and alternatives to strengthen the original project vision.
HDS is known for providing multiple concepts and choices for its clients, and for delivering service at a pace that reflects the realities of fast moving organizations.
Whether in city, suburban or countryside settings, architecture should enhance one’s visual experience and heighten one’s sense of wonder. We take a humanistic approach to design, a creative process with the owner that strives for harmonious balance between beauty and function.
We seek to influence this human connection through the use of natural light, natural ventilation, access to the outdoors, courtyards, balconies - and the unexpected unique design element - to more fully connect a building to its surroundings and to evoke a response from those who use and enjoy it: residents, students, shoppers, visitors and workers.
Living spaces are where spirits are renewed and relationships with family and friends are rekindled. In urban communities, architecture can help carve out a unique living space within a busy city. With the increasing density of city neighborhoods, the importance of creating scaled, human buildings that reflect the surrounding community is essential to a project’s success.
HDS architecture looks to provide both a private refuge and a visual connection to the outside world. Our living spaces bridge indoor life with the outdoors through the use of transparency, landscaping, connectivity and community space.
