HH Architecture PA

HH Architecture is a full-service design and architecture firm that has been committed to creating lasting and meaningful impacts on communities through conscientious and responsible design since its founding in 2005. Our foundation is built upon the belief that design should be an agent for positive change, enhancing the well-being of people and organizations while striving to make good design accessible to all. We proudly serve both public and private sector clients, collaborating with them to bring their visions to life.

Our expertise spans a wide range of project types, encompassing master planning, renovations, and new construction. We approach each venture as a shared investment, working closely with owners, designers, and builders to ensure the successful completion of projects that will continue to benefit the community and individuals long after construction is complete.

Our Collaborative Approach

HH Architecture is distinguished by its collaborative and partnership-style approach to design. Our team of four partners-Kristen M. Hess, CEO; David Carey, Technical Director; Siler Ransmeier, Director of Design; and Jenessa Van Deen, Director of Operations-bring a wealth of experience and diverse perspectives to every project. Supported by a talented roster of ten registered architects and a dedicated design and production staff, we leverage our combined expertise to tailor solutions that meet the unique needs and goals of each client.
