Callaghan Horiuchi

Most Innovative Architectural Practice - New York, 2026

Callaghan Horiuchi partners with owners, developers, and institutions to shape projects from vision to realization. We believe the greatest value architecture provides often comes before design begins, helping clients define strategy, test ideas, and make informed decisions that improve long-term project outcomes. We combine research, behavioral insight, and design expertise to create environments that respond to how people work, learn, gather, and experience space. By aligning business objectives with the human experience, we help clients create places that are both meaningful and enduring. As a highly experienced boutique practice, we offer the agility of a small studio with the capability to deliver projects ranging from workplace and mixed-use developments to cultural institutions and campus environments. Every project is led directly by our principals, ensuring close collaboration, thoughtful execution, and design solutions that balance creativity with business objectives.
