Leading the architectural team is founding principal Hans Hoffman. His experience uniquely qualifies him to lead the architecture process. Hans has been responsible for a wide range of project types, with a focus on Sports, Resorts and Housing projects. Hans has experience in both public and the private sector. Project types include ballparks, multiple projects at the Greater Salt Lake Area Homeless Shelter, elementary schools, telecommunication utility buildings, office buildings, healthcare projects, sport, resort, housing projects and private residences. These project types have allowed Hans the opportunity to establish a reputation for thorough, thoughtful, and deliberate designs while providing clients with a functional and enlightened end product.

Project execution and a project delivery method are tools Hans has refined to address process and building owner’s goals. Hans has also created a project team organizational structure to improve the quality of the design process and creation of construction documents of a project. Information Services are vital to the firms operation. Web based project communication and BIM modeling function as key elements to the operation of the firm.
