Hoffman Grayson Architects

What Hoffman Grayson Architects does

Hoffman Grayson Architects, operating legally as Hoffman Grayson Loizides Vandrei + Vandrei Architects LLP (HGLV), is a Long Island-based architectural firm founded in 1981 in Huntington Village, New York, by Neal Hoffman and Glen Grayson. The firm provides architectural and interior design services across both commercial and residential sectors, with a portfolio spanning hospitality venues (hotels, country clubs, restaurants, inns), theaters and performing arts venues, healthcare facilities, municipal and park buildings, retail spaces, religious facilities, and high-end custom homes. Service capabilities include new construction, renovations, historic preservation and restoration, mixed-use development design, and interior design, with LEED-accredited professionals on staff supporting sustainability-oriented work.

The firm operates on a partner-led service model in which the three current partners—Nicholas D. Loizides, Michael Vandrei, and Catherine Vandrei—personally engage with clients throughout the project lifecycle from concept through completion. The practice is staffed with registered architects, LEED-accredited professionals, interior designers, recent graduates, and an office administrator, with no proprietary technology platform, AI capabilities, or software integrations disclosed. Service delivery is project-based, with each engagement led directly by a partner in a high-touch, relationship-driven go-to-market approach.

Revenue is generated through professional services fees on commercial and residential design projects. The firm operates from a single headquarters at 90 High Street in Huntington, NY, and relies on portfolio-based marketing via the company website and referral-driven reputation rather than outbound sales channels. Geographic scope is concentrated on Long Island and adjacent areas, spanning from White Plains to the eastern tip of Long Island. The firm has accumulated multiple AIA and regional awards between 2009 and 2024, with no public funding history, no external ownership, and no disclosed pricing structure.
