Welcome NOMA attendees
HGA is a multidisciplinary design firm: a collective of architects, engineers, interior designers, and researchers fostering insight, innovation, and a positive impact for our clients and communities. Our over 800 professionals nationwide use an integrated approach to design, resulting in a more powerful process and more holistic, sustainable solutions.
While our portfolio includes award-winning designs, our culture is decidedly down to earth. You’ll find leaders known for expertise rather than ego; smart, respectful coworkers who inspire each other; and an equitable culture that makes room for all at the table.

Our responsibility is both inspiring and humbling: to create a positive, lasting impact through design. We value empathy, are fueled by curiosity, and embrace the hard work that leads to innovation. Our goal is to create a company and culture where everyone—employees and clients—can do the best work of their lives.
Our Commitment to Equity
HGA was founded in 1953 on the belief that diverse perspectives—primarily of different disciplines—are integral to great design. As a firm committed to learning and growing, our definition of diversity has evolved, and is inspiring us to build a more equitable and inclusive culture.
Great design requires great minds. We need to attract and hold on to the best talent, not only diverse in discipline but also race, culture, gender identity, physical ability, religion, sexual orientation, and more—a collective that reflects the communities we seek to serve.
We believe great design also requires deep insight into the people and passions that enliven each unique environment. We value empathy and curiosity, and embrace the hard work it takes to make a positive, lasting impact for all who experience our work.
Guided by our beliefs and our responsibility to encourage equity throughout our industry, we are on a path to create:
a truly equitable culture, where policies, practices, and resources are aligned so all people can thrive;
a wholly inclusive environment, in which everyone feels valued and respected; and
a more diverse HGA, where differences are cultivated, appreciated, and reflect the world as it is today.
