At Hamilton + Aitken Architects, we believe that architecture has the power to transform lives and communities. Our team of dedicated professionals is passionate about creating innovative, sustainable, and functional designs that enhance the human experience. With a focus on education and public spaces, we have had the privilege of working on a wide range of projects, from retrofits of existing buildings to the complete planning and design of new campuses and public spaces.

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy is centered around the idea that design is about creating positive change. Whether it's a new way of working, a new approach to learning, or a new way of making a community a better place, we believe that design can be a powerful catalyst for change. We also believe that sustainable design is essential for creating buildings that not only serve their purpose but also respect the environment. Our commitment to sustainable design is reflected in our certification as a San Francisco Green Business, and we strive to incorporate eco-friendly practices into every aspect of our work.
