HHCP Architects

What HHCP Architects does

HHCP Architects, operating under the master brand Grace Design Studios, is a multidisciplinary architecture, planning, and consulting firm founded in 1975 and headquartered in Orlando, Florida. The firm delivers integrated design and program management services across 14 practice areas, including healthcare, K-12 and higher education, defense and security, justice, senior living, hospitality, themed entertainment, sports and recreation, industrial, workplace, civic, worship, and mixed-use urban development. Its client portfolio spans marquee enterprise and government engagements such as the Ascension Parish Courthouse, Ochsner Health facilities, Texas Christian University, Saint Louis University, the Cyberspace Test Group Facility, Fairmont The Palm, and Walt Disney World's Tron Lightcycle/Run attraction.

The firm operates through 11 service modules — architecture, program management, mechanical engineering, forensic consulting, sustainability, inspection and resilience consulting, interior design, planning, specialized healthcare planning and design, creative services, and 3D visualization — delivered across 25 offices in 13 U.S. states. Three wholly owned sub-brands (Grace Design International, CASE, and Grace Design Healthcare Studios) extend the platform into global, AEC, and dedicated healthcare markets. The underlying technology is primarily design and visualization tooling (3D/VR), with no disclosed AI, API, or platform product. Revenue is generated through project-based professional services fees, with pricing quoted on a project-by-project basis depending on scope, complexity, and sector requirements, and contracts typically running on multi-year cadences.

The go-to-market is a B2B professional services model targeting enterprise and government clients through direct engagement, RFP processes, and long-term relationship building. The firm markets itself through a website portfolio, industry insights/blog content, and firm news, with a multilingual (English, Spanish, Arabic) web presence signaling international aspirations. Operating geographies are formally United States, though projects such as the Jeddah Township KFNB Redevelopment and the dedicated Grace Design International sub-brand indicate pursuit of cross-border work. The firm is privately held as a limited liability company, with no disclosed parent, investors, or funding events.
