HGA has a diverse portfolio of work, ranging from educational and healthcare facilities to corporate offices, museums, and performing arts centers. One of the firm's most notable projects is the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA), which was completed in 2016. The project involved a major renovation and expansion of the museum's existing building, adding over 235,000 square feet of new gallery and public space while preserving the historic elements of the original structure.
Another significant project completed by HGA is the University of Michigan Biological Sciences Building, which opened in 2018. The building houses research facilities for multiple departments and features sustainable design elements such as green roofs, a rainwater harvesting system, and a highly efficient mechanical system. The design of the building fosters collaboration and interdisciplinary research, with shared lab spaces and open areas for informal meetings and discussions.
HGA has received numerous awards and accolades for their work, including the American Institute of Architects' Architecture Firm Award in 2013, which recognizes firms that have consistently produced outstanding architecture for at least a decade. The firm has also been recognized for their commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency, with multiple LEED certifications for their projects.
Overall, HGA's approach to architecture and design is driven by a passion for creating innovative and sustainable solutions that enhance the built environment while meeting the needs of their clients and the community.
