Our History

Industry surveys consistently rank HOK among the leading firms in numerous building types, specialties and regions, and we have earned many awards and honors for our projects, people and practice.

Our ability to connect across markets and disciplines in every part of the world allows us to see the "big picture" and, because we approach design from so many different perspectives, gives us an unparalleled ability to innovate.

Our Vision

We Create.

We Care.

We care deeply about the human experience. Our people understand that HOK's work has a profound influence on the world. We use design to protect our natural environment and enrich lives.

Buildings should serve a higher purpose. We believe great architecture shapes the human experience, improves the quality of the built environment and helps conserve the earth's resources.

Our goal always is to cut through the complexity to make life easier and better for people.

Our work inspires people while shaping the future. HOK projects transcend their initial purposes to express timeless cultural, organizational and personal values.
