HOOGLAND ARCHITECTURE is a multidisciplinary architecture and design firm based in Las Vegas, NV, led by Henry CJ Hoogland III, AIA.

Our experience and portfolio encompass works of architecture, interior design, landscaping, and master planning. Our work centers on our clients’ aspirations, the particular project’s context, the potential of a site, the possibilities of materials, the realities of construction, and the relationships between light and space.

Our integrated design approach draws upon the experience of our design team members and the expertise of potential contractors and craftspeople. This approach results in architectural solutions that respond directly to our clients’ program needs, to budgets and timelines, and to the realities of construction processes while providing tangible value to our clients’ projects.

At HOOGLAND ARCHITECTURE, we believe in the positive effect of great architecture in peoples’ lives and it’s ability to heighten the senses, nurture, and inspire. We endeavor to create spaces and places that are original, authentic, and specific. We aspire to create works that are sympathetic to both urban and natural landscapes. We strive to create architecture that is humanly and functionally poetic; that is both forward-thinking and timeless.
