DSH // architecture is a practice founded on the belief that design makes a difference. Our portfolio of national-award-winning residential and educational projects includes tactile, light-infused, and materially rich environments along with skillful transformations that foreground design’s responsibility to communities.

We employ a research-focused, people-oriented design process that blends empathy and logic into a single thread of creative thinking. From concept to execution, we engage clients, understand their needs, and offer elegant, intelligent, meaningful, and affirming solutions.

DSH is centered on the collaboration of its two founders: Eric Haas, FAIA, LEED AP BD+C is Fellow of the American Institute of Architects and an Adjunct Professor at the USC School of Architecture.
