Elevating Environments of Health

Great design requires a sense of curiosity—asking constant questions to form deep insight into our clients, their contexts, and the human condition.
HGA is an interdisciplinary design firm committed to making a positive, lasting impact for our clients and communities by leading with curiosity backed by research-based, holistic solutions. As a collective of design professionals working together across diverse backgrounds and disciplines, we seek to understand and optimize all aspects of each unique environment: human experience, cultural significance, technical rigor, systems performance, and resiliency.
THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY IS DYNAMIC AND COMPLEX.
Healthcare clients find that HGA helps to imagine new ways to increase staff efficiency and support patient care. To answer those and other challenging questions, we merge evidence-based design research, ethnographic research, Lean principles, data analytics, and design thinking with architecture, engineering, and planning to design solutions that respond in new and thoughtful ways.
Every healthcare project is an opportunity to deliver creative solutions that increase your operational efficiency, improve clinical outcomes, and elevate human experience—at the lowest possible cost to provide the greatest value to your organization, staff, patients, community, planet, and your bottom line.
We create space that meets the specialized needs of today while being ready for the future.
AN INTEGRATED TEAM | BEST IN CLASS
HGA offers a full complement of architecture, engineering, planning, and research and believe it is simply the most effective and efficient was to design your project. All of these in-house resources are available to be seamlessly integrated into our design process if needed. We are proud of the truly integrated services that we offer and the value it can bring to our clients.
