Hickok Cole Architects is a 100-person collective of architects, project managers, interior designers, graphic/media designers, strategists and researchers, each contributing to our broad based design practice. Led by Sr. Principals Michael E. Hickok, FAIA and Yolanda Cole, AIA, IIDA, LEED AP, It is also one of the most successful architectural firms in the Washington, DC region, experiencing steady growth over a period of twenty-eight years. They form a design-centric culture balanced by project management and propelled by research.
Hickok Cole Architects has designed over 60 million square feet of corporate office buildings, multi-family housing and interiors in the years since its founding. Our portfolio demonstrates a commitment to context over style. As designers, we respond to each region, city and neighborhood’s unique characteristics and distinct opportunities. No two problems are the same and so no two solutions are alike. We consistently seek design strategies that are authentic and in resonance with our project’s time and place. Our inquisitive nature pervades each of our cross-collaborative project teams, formed from our core practice groups: commercial office, housing, commercial interior design, Lifestyle interiors, and our full-service branding and ad agency, Hickok Cole Creative.
