HMR ARCHITECTS is a firm committed to providing clients with the highest quality architectural services for projects that range from civic and institutional buildings to custom homes. Originally founded in 1965 as Holt & Morgan Architects, HMR is based in Princeton, New Jersey. Architectural and planning projects for institutions, museums, libraries, and residences make up a large part of HMR's practice. Additionally, the firm's notable expertise in historic preservation has garnered a wide-ranging reputation for excellence in preservation and rehabilitation of historic structures and landscapes.

A kitchen renovation for an active family offered the opportunity to expand the room into the back yard with the addition of an exterior porch. An eating area with glass on three sides connects the kitchen to the pool and patio areas beyond. An over-sized island in the center of the kitchen provides a place for food preparation, casual eating, and kid's homework.

Built on an in-town lot in Princeton, this new modern house is designed to provide single level living, with guest rooms on the second floor. The open plan living/dining area features an expansive wall of glass with a monumental sliding door opening to an enclosed rear yard. Clean, modern interior spaces are enhanced by a carefully selected palette of materials and colors. Durable, maintenance-free exterior materials include stucco and thermally-modified ash wood siding. A hydronic radiant floor heating system provides comfortable heat throughout the first floor.

HMR's architectural portfolio offers a wide range of contextual new building designs, adaptive re-use of existing buildings, and historic preservation projects. Architectural services include programming and space planning, building design, master plans, conditions surveys, site design, construction administration, feasibility studies, and green design / sustainability.
