OUR MISSION
At Hinge, our mission is to creatively integrate both the functional and the poetic, and to create lasting, timeless places that improve the lives of all those who encounter them
OUR VISION
At Hinge, our vision is a world in which the built environment is made with love. Love is the legacy that not only considers the needs of today but that betters the lives of people and the planet for generations to come .
OUR CORE VALUES
Engagement
To be engaged is to be wholeheartedly connected with each project that comes in our door. We are engaged with our clients and stakeholders as we listen and guide them through the process. We are engaged with the context and revealing the inherent potential of a building or a place. Engagement is a dialogue that continues and grows throughout a project as we work together toward a solution that balances the dreams and the realities (often of budget, code and schedule)-the practical and the poetic.
Curiosity
To us being a great architect is all about curiosity. It’s what makes us constantly ask questions and not give up until we find the best solution. It’s what makes us adaptable and collaborative. Every client, every project, every contractor, every consultant teaches us something new. Curiosity allows us to grow and do our best work.
Generosity
Generosity is about the love and the legacy. Generosity is about sharing our knowledge and expertise and talents with our clients and the greater community. It’s about a built environment that is more than the bare minimum. Generosity can mean paying attention to all the little details in a project, but it can also mean knowing where to spend time and money so that it has the biggest impact for our clients and the overall project.
