HOK believes that great architecture and interiors shape 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. Clients come to
HOK for extraordinary work developed through a highly collaborative
process. The product is tailor-made for each client’s unique vision and
framework of needs.
HOK’s fully resourced offices are staffed with the expertise of some
of the world’s top individual specialists by discipline and by sector. Our
ability to integrate all of our services and sector specialists as a unified
creative force aligns with both our clients’ expectations and what
today’s world needs from design. Offering broad services and sector
expertise in-house also contributes to better projects by streamlining
team communication and quality control.
HOK recently ranked as the world’s fourth-largest architecture
practice in the 2009 edition of the BD World Architecture 100, the
annual benchmark survey of the architectural industry. Additionally,
Interior Design’s “Top 100 Design Giants” survey of January 2008
ranks HOK as the second-largest interior design firm in the country
and the fastest growing; and in Engineering News Record’s 2008 “Top
Green Design Firms” issue, HOK ranks as number one.
Most of HOK’s regional offices provide full services, and individual
projects are managed by senior members of the firm. Each office
may draw, as required, upon the firm’s central resources, where
highly specialized staff professionals are available to lend particular
expertise. This system assures effective services at the local level
while providing access to a network of in-house specialists in a variety
of technical disciplines, a valuable resource support not available in
smaller building design firms.
