In their words
Sheehan Nagle Hartray Architects (SNHA) is an award-winning practice founded in 1966, with studios in Chicago and London. The firm offers architectural design, interior design and pre-design services including site selection, programme definition and feasibility studies, and now operates as part of Woolpert.
SNHA designs educational, workplace, living, cultural and recreation environments for institutions, businesses and governments. The practice pairs design breadth with technical depth to guide clients through complex architectural challenges, and is well known for its work on mission critical and data centre typologies.
The studio is also a product designer, creating and manufacturing building systems for emerging design and technology challenges. It offers a creative and diverse studio environment and a commitment to developing the next generation of architects.
Benjamin Champion joined the SNHA London studio as a newly qualified architect. You can hear his conversation with Stephen Drew on the Architecture Social Podcast in the linked CPD lesson.
Lightbox in Gresham, Oregon, demonstrates SNHA’s approach to advanced manufacturing: production, offices and visitor spaces are organised within a building designed for technical performance and future expansion.

Culture
The London studio of around 15 people works in a collaborative environment, with everyone in the firm actively involved in the design details and in the day-to-day planning and execution of each project. The team relishes the detail inherent in the work and constantly seeks to refine both its design solutions and the tools used to communicate them.
