At Helicon Works Architects we've been practicing green architecture and natural building since 1989. Each project is a unique exploration, seeking the most ecologically conscious response to both client and place. We can help you design and build your new home, add onto or remodel your existing home. Led by Bill Hutchins, Principal Architect and founder of HWA, our knowledgeable team and group of collaborators will engage with you in a thoughtful exploration and co-creative process to evolve a design solution that merges your needs and the site's attributes.
Our team is made up of Bill Hutchins, Principal Architect, and a group of collaborators who are experts in their fields. We form flexible design and construction teams uniquely suited to each project based on project scope and client needs. It is this customized approach and collaborative process that becomes one of our greatest assets as all aspects of the project are thoughtfully considered with a multidisciplinary team. As a client, you can choose amongst our collaborators or are welcome to bring in other professionals of your choice.
Helicon Works Architects offers a full range of services from Design & Documentation through to Construction. We provide the expertise necessary to design an ecologically sensitive home with renewable energy systems, efficient lighting, storm water and regenerative landscapes, and green interiors. Whether you are looking to create a home to Passivhaus, LEED or Living Building Challenge standards, or go through the certification process, our collaborative will help you through every step of the process.
