INTRODUCTION
Holsman Architecture + Design is a focused architectural practice working with clients who value clear thinking and well-considered decisions.
The work spans tenant improvements, small commercial projects, and custom residential architecture, with an emphasis on understanding constraints early and aligning purpose, feasibility, and long-term performance before form.
The practice intentionally limits the number of projects undertaken each year to maintain focus, responsiveness, and continuity from early planning through construction.
APPROACH
Every project begins with purpose.
Early decisions—around feasibility, scope, budget, and code—have the greatest impact on outcomes. By addressing these questions first, the work avoids unnecessary complexity and supports durable, appropriate solutions.
Not every project requires full documentation. Services are tailored to what is actually needed, allowing time and resources to be focused where they add the most value.

experience
While Holsman Architecture is a small practice, its work is informed by extensive professional experience on tenant improvement and commercial projects completed at larger firms. This background shapes a pragmatic, measured approach to both commercial and residential work today.
