About Hagan Architects
Thoughtful. Detailed. Solutions.
Hagan Architects, Inc. is a creative and innovative architectural firm in Atlanta, Georgia, established in 2006. We specialize in providing thoughtful and detailed solutions to the complex architectural challenges of all types of building projects. Our broad experience gives us the ability to provide effective design and construction guidance on a wide range of project types and styles, from traditional to contemporary, from those with very small budgets to those with very generous ones, from very large buildings to intimately detailed furniture pieces.
The firm’s founder, Timothy Hagan, AIA, has spent over 30 years cultivating a unique understanding of design and the processes of building through a dual-course of intensive work both as Architect and Project Manager in award winning Architectural firms in Atlanta and Houston, Texas, and also as an Artist and Craftsman, designing and building custom furniture in a wide variety of materials and styles for discerning individual, religious and corporate clients.
This extensive hands-on study of the fundamental blending of design and craftsmanship gives Hagan Architects, Inc. the unique, instinctive ability to provide creative and innovative design solutions to the needs of our clients with the first-hand knowledge and experience essential to the effective implementation of those solutions during the construction process.
While our work is varied in type, style and scale, the important common thread through all of our projects is that we put the needs and goals of our clients first. We listen. We really pay attention. We make your goals our own, and we strive to always meet those goals with integrity and efficiency.
We invite you to see how Hagan Architects, Inc. can help you achieve your goals on your next project.
In the course of designing any building, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of questions that have to be answered. Some will determine how the building will look and function, or how it will use energy efficiently. Some will ensure the safety of the people inside. Some determine qualities you can see and feel, while many others involve things that will be hidden in the final building. The answers to these questions create the design of a building and have to be understood before the building can be finished.
As Architects, we provide our expertise to imagine and design the right solutions to all of these questions and help people make important decisions about their buildings. We work with owners, engineers and contractors to make sure the designs and decisions made stay on budget, meet Building and Zoning Codes and will result in a good, safe building for everyone.
Then, we make drawings and communicate all of these decisions to the many different people who will be involved in the construction of the building in a way that they can use to build their parts correctly.
All of this work, of course, takes time. We charge our fees based on the amount of time our part of the work on your design should take. What is needed is different for every project, determined by the nature of the problem we are trying to solve, and we will work with you at the very beginning to define how we can most efficiently and effectively help you get the design you hope for built the way you need it to be.
At Hagan Architects, we know through experience what it takes to get buildings built well – whether they are very big or very small, in-town or far away, with small budgets or with very generous ones. Our knowledge allows us to give you beautiful and effective solutions through reliable services that are honest and affordable.
We at Hagan Architects want to help you make the spaces you want feel special and tailored to your specific needs, and we believe that the best way to do that is by working closely with you in collaboration throughout the design and construction process.
Working together, we will be able to make your project better than either of us could make it working alone. It’s also a lot more fun.
Our first step in this collaboration is to imagine the future that you wish for and how we can begin to make a building that can provide a home for it. We’ll ask a lot of questions. We want to listen to you and understand what about your life is most important to you, and how we can work with you to make spaces for it that meet all of your needs and help you to thrive.
We’ll help you to think about what you need and want and how to make them fit together into a place that feels right to you. For us, designing and building that “just right” feeling is our goal for every project, no matter the size, type, style, or budget the project might have. Once we determine together what is “just right” for you, we’ll use that to measure the success of each of the hundreds of decisions that we will make in the course of our work together.
In every project there will be a balance of design and budget that needs to be met and kept, and we’ll help you do that. Sometimes, maintaining that balance can be complicated, and we’ll help you understand the questions before you, what your options are, and what effect they will have on the project and its costs, so that you can be confident that the decisions you make and the spaces they will create are the right ones for you.
When you are ready to see what a true design collaboration can do for you, contact us. We’re looking forward to the chance to work with you.
At Hagan Architects, the most rewarding aspect of our collaborations is knowing that our work not only solves the challenges of a project, but that the people we work with are happy with the way in which we helped our clients achieve their results. Sometimes, they even say nice things about us.
