They were professional, FUN, easy to work with, communicative, and gave us several layout options, all of which we loved. Our house is a literal dream and I can't recommend a team of WOMEN enough to design the layout of your house. Sorry, boys, but they think of things you never would. ;) **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Thank you, Daytona - we loved working with you and Matt, and seeing your creativity take off with your innate interior design skills! ### All 24 reviews **★★★★★ — Barry Richardson, Nov. 2024** > We have been thrilled to collaborate with HQ Architects on numerous builds through the years. The level of detail they provide in their plans and scopes of work is amongst the most thorough and well thought out that we have worked with. The team atmosphere and collaboration they perpetuate is critical to us as the builder and more importantly to the customer. Not to mention, HQ's designs are some of the best we have had the privilege to execute. Highly recommend their services. **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Team Evoke, thank you for your kind words! It's been a privilege to work with you, Barry! We always know our clients are designs are in great hands with you and your team! **★★★★★ — HouseHome, Oct. 2024** > We are an interior design firm based in Denver, Colorado, and have worked very closely with Anne and Alison. They are EXCEPTIONAL! It was so fun and easy to professionally collaborate, with our design / finishing style working so perfectly with their interior and exterior architectural artistry. We are set to be working on a project together again soon, and cannot wait to see what creation comes to fruition! **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Thank you, Christine and team! We loved working with you, too, and hope we get to again soon!! **★★★★★ — TMD Custom Builders, Oct. 2024** > As a general contractor we have worked with Alison and Anne on a number of projects over the years. Their designs are crisp, well thought out and so much fun to execute in the field. They get the details right in the plans they put together. Working with them has been great! **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Thank you, Cole! You and your team did a beautiful job on all the many phases of the Cherry Hills Village estate. It was so nice to know our clients were in great hands. We look forward to working with you again! **★★★★★ — Rock Springs Development, Oct. 2024** > As a general contractor, we have had the pleasure of working with HQ Architects on numerous projects over the years, and they continue to be our go-to design firm. Their attention to detail, creative vision, and ability to seamlessly integrate modern design elements with the existing architecture make them a standout in the industry. Projects run smoothly thanks to their excellent communication, professionalism, and ability to solve complex design challenges. We highly recommend HQ Architects for any project—whether it's a new build or a remodel—knowing they will elevate the experience and outcome every time. **★★★★★ — HU-21142014, Aug. 2024** > Anne and Alison with HQ were fantastic to work with from start to finish! They were so creative with their design to make our dreams come true with a new kitchen in a 100 year old historic home. They had excellent communication and so much fun to work with. I would highly recommend the team of HQ Architects for any project!! **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Lisa and Brian, you are so kind! We loved working with you both on you gorgeous kitchen and exquisite back yard. Thank you for inviting us to work with you on your beautiful historic home - it really was a delight. Enjoy your lovely patios!! **★★★★★ — Louise Wood, March 2024** > Alison and Anne did a fantastic job helping us design the remodel of our kitchen and surrounding rooms on the first floor. We could not recommend them more. They helped us navigate challenging space and structural limitations, tease out our top priorities, and were instrumental in turning our vision into a reality. They took the time to listen carefully to what we wanted and our concerns, and that showed up in not only the drafting process but also when it came time to solve the many problems that came up along the way. We really loved that they gave us two sets of designs: (1) a design that reflected what we said we initially wanted, and (2) a design that pushed the boundaries of feasibility. The 2nd design really allowed us to see what was possible in the space beyond what was immediately obvious, and we ended up using elements of both in our final design set. We were also so impressed with their knowledge of permitting regulations and design standards and came to rely on them as a way to verify our own assumptions or information from our builder. > > Aside from their talents as architects, we also just loved spending time with Anne and Alison! They were fun, and made us feel at ease in what can otherwise be an overwhelming and stressful process. Thank you so much Alison and Anne! **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Louise, thank you so much for your kind words - we loved working with you and are so happy imagining you and your family (Princess L included!) enjoying that beautiful space!! **★★★★★ — emerywebster, Feb. 2021** > Amazing. Alison & Anne worked closely with us and our contractor to expand our 1930s Denver bungalow and make it our "forever house." They are extremely knowledgeable, professional, and fun to work with. They listened closely to our needs and approached any constraints (whether they came from the city, nature of the space, or our needs) as problem-solving opportunities. We learned a lot and enjoyed each step of the process. A+++ would recommend to anyone considering a home design/development project. **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Webb and Alison - we honestly had a great time working with you as well and can't wait to see your home now that you've moved into it! **★★★★★ — Sarah Stettner, Nov. 2020** > We hired Anne and Alison to design our home in the Crestmoor neighborhood of Denver. They have extensive experience designing in this area and were well-versed in navigating the HOA, an incredibly helpful skill for our project! They have an incredible attention to detail and work very professionally and efficiently. They also assisted very closely with the review and permitting process at the City as we had a few tricky issues arise concerning the lot set up. While our design is fairly traditional (per our preferences), HQ offered many creative and modern solutions to layouts to accommodate the needs of our large family. We would recommend them for your custom home project or renovation and enjoyed working with them as well as the end result! **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Thanks, Sarah! We loved working with you and Andrew. We're very excited to see you and your boys moved into your gorgeous home! **★★★★★ — Mike and Dorie Hoody, Oct. 2018** > We hired Anne and Alison to design a custom urban home in Washington Park to fit our large family of 6. They took care to understand our unique needs, and came up with ideas that made our home run efficiently, particularly in our busy kitchen and laundry areas. You can't beat the uniqueness and style they add to the homes they design. It's important to hire architects that are familiar with building in the city since the rules change all the time and errors in understanding the code will set your project back. They've had plenty of experience building in the Denver metro area, so you would be in good hands! **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Thanks, Dorie and Mike! We loved working with you and are so happy to see you in your beautiful new home! **★★★★★ — A Edmund, July 2018** > Best architects in Denver! We hired Anne and Alison after receiving designs and bids from other architects who struggled with our complicated three phase renovation. They are very talented architects who worked with us throughout the entire renovation process, treating our project as if it was their own home. Both Anne and Alison were professional, reliable and intimately familiar with building codes and permitting for the City of Denver. Most importantly they were able to design a space that included everything on our wish list. **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Thanks for your kind words! We thoroughly enjoyed working with you both, and can't wait to see you and your home again! **★★★★★ — Leslie friedman, April 2018** > Anne and Allison were an absolute pleasure to work with. We hired them to create plans for a master bed/bath extension, and from the very beginning they were professional, they listened and they followed through on exactly what they promised. Highly recommend them! **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Thanks again, Leslie and Devin. It was great working with you. Good luck on your new adventure! **★★★★★ — Kristen Grebenik, March 2018** > We had the opportunity to work with HQA to design our remodel and it was great! They really listened to the things we were looking for, took into account our priorities and were very communicative. Highly recommend! **Comment from HQ Architects:** > Thanks, Kristen and Pat. We'll miss working with you, and wish you the best! **★★★★★ — krischelw, Oct. 2016** > After interviewing many architects for our "forever home" project, we hired HQ Architects and are so glad that we did! We had purchased a 1928 bungalow and took it from 850 sq ft to 5000. Alison & Anne were extremely conscientious and focused on making our vision become a reality. They took their time to clearly understand what was important to us, as well as, made sure we retained the character for that time period. We could not be happier and highly recommend this dream team for your project! **★★★★★ — Eve's Creations, June 2016** > I had the pleasure of working with Anne and Alison recently on a custom home. They worked hard at getting the details correct for our client. As a team, they are both very thorough in their communications with the clients as well as the construction supervisor and myself. Anne and Allison both had a strong respect for the clients budget and time. Their skills really helped make our client’s dream home a reality. **★★★★★ — nankfaust, June 2016** > My husband and I were looking to build a traditional style home with a contemporary layout in the interior: a large open family layout with an open kitchen and dining area. Anne and Alison came up with a great plan that extended the style to the outdoor areas. We were delighted with the final plan. > The HQ team was very easy to work with, they listened to our ideas and concerns and always came up with good solutions. They made home building a pleasure. We enjoyed working with them and would recommend them to our friends and family **★★★★★ — gbs345, May 2016** > My experience with HQ architects was extremely positive. They did the design work and monitored construction process for a major renovation (partial 'poptop') of my home. They took my major ideas and fleshed them out into practical plans the builders followed with very effective interaction with all involved parties throughout the process. The project was finished on time and close to budget. **★★★★★ — carrift5, May 2016** > HQ spent a lot of time with us making sure that our new custom home was exactly the way we wanted it. They were very thorough and responsive. We loved working with them and also were glad they monitored the building process as well. We can't wait to move into our new home! **★★★★★ — CT Design, May 2016** > Anne and Alison truly understand the long term impact their designs will have on their clients' lives, and they respect both their clients' ideas and their budgets while developing top-notch design. Their excellent project management skills and attention to detail ensure projects run smoothly and that their clients enjoy the process. They pride themselves not only on their honesty and integrity, but also on their ability to really listen to their clients to make their vision become a reality. **★★★★★ — giffordewing, May 2016** > HQ Architects provided us with several highly creative, carefully-thought-out and personalized design options for our major home remodel. Receiving their professional input and range of suggestions was the turning point to our realizing that our hoped-for project would be possible. Architect Alison Hagan is a delight; she worked closely with us to understand and assess options for meeting our particular and challenging needs, including providing accessible space for a disabled resident, a separate grandparent apartment, and shared family living space, all within the constraints of a budget and a historic house. HQ Architects are honest, professional and a pleasure to work with; we unreservedly recommend them. **★★★★★ — Ti Ho, May 2016** > HQ has been the firm our company has used for the last few years and we are extremely happy with their work. Anne and Alison are both incredibly professional and enjoyable to be with. They are very involved with the local community and are great stewards of classic architecture in the old neighborhoods we build in. We are happy to call them partners and friends. **★★★★★ — Grayling Concepts, LLC, May 2016** > Anne and Alison are some of my favorite people to work with. When starting a project with them, I always know that the design will be elegant and tasteful, the documents will be thorough and well detailed, and that the client is already in great hands. As an interior designer, working with an architect who is willing to collaborate and focus on the interior as much as the exterior is sometimes hard to come by. When working with Anne and Alison every detail has been considered and all design options have been vetted to assure the best possible outcome. I've referred my own friends to them as I know how hard they work to please the client and create something beautiful every time. **★★★★★ — mhf1, April 2016** > We moved into a 1911 house that needed alot of TCL in Wash Park. We wanted to update the house, keep the size, modernize the layout, and stay true to the original design. Piece of cake! Anne and Alison truly listened to our goals, and worked with us to make the project come together without any hitches. They came up with some seemingly simple yet elegant solutions to our challenges. They were very easy to work with. **★★★★★ — CCM, LLC, June 2015** > Alison and Anna are wonderful ladies to work with. They have a great eye for design and understand how to get the most out of the space you have to work with. Their drawings are detailed which makes it easier for us as builders. Our company CCM, LLC (general contractor) has worked on few project with HQ Architects. Our most recent project was a custom home in Hill Top. We love working with these ladies and can't wait for the next project. ## Selected projects - [1926 Craftsman](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/1926-craftsman-pj-vj~7400635) - Location: Denver, CO - Photos: 51 - Description: This home remodel and addition is born out of the loving care of its homeowners and designers.

Creating a balance between modern necessity and respect for the Arts & Crafts charm, we opened the home up, creating a conversation between the front Living and Dining spaces, and the Kitchen. The contrast between open concept and historic home was softened with the addition of beams and trim work to match the existing character. The original fireplaces were made focal points for each level - the basement on… - [Transitional Elegance in Crestmoor](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/transitional-elegance-in-crestmoor-pj-vj~2170664) - Location: Denver, CO - Photos: 43 - Description: This custom home allowed HQA the chance to work closely with a family, designing for them a beautiful transitional house in the established Crestmoor neighborhood.

Ceramic tile sills, cedar shake and ornate interior trim work recall the craftsmanship of a past age, though the traditionally sized spaces left the homeowners in need of a thoughtful remodel.

In addition to creating more square footage and an open floor plan, the priority for this family was to minimize the impact of the 2nd floor addition to the street. Stepping the second floor back to behind the original gables allow the existing home’s curb appeal to maintain the spotlight. Come inside, though, and the typically undersized bungalow rooms have been… - [Master Bath Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/master-bath-remodel-pj-vj~6021853) - Location: Denver, CO - Photos: 4 - Description: A simple and open floor plan with high quality materials complements this historic home’s streamlined and contemporary tastes.
