Our Profile

Creative architects providing custom design solutions that are unique.

WHO WE ARE

D.T. Hubbell Architects is a well-established architecture and design firm based in Atlanta. We craft original designs and provide a full scope of design services for high-end residential architecture: custom homes, exclusive estates, vacation properties, and contextual home additions. Acquiring more than 25 years of broad experience in residential and commercial architecture, we thoroughly understand the design and construction process, and strive to make it a rewarding experience for our clients.

Our client-principal architect collaboration is unique throughout design and construction for every project. This personal alliance helps us understand our client’s inspiration and passion, and fulfill our shared values and objectives, often exceeding expectations. We encourage integration of sustainable design principles and green building practices from the start in a way which will most benefit you financially while also protecting and conserving environmental resources. This is achieved through the use of passive building-site orientation, durable natural materials, natural day lighting, water conservation, and energy efficiency techniques, among others.

Our design solutions exhibit a clean simplicity that embrace time-honored principles such as form, scale, proportion, hierarchy, and rhythm while incorporating appropriate levels of detail. We urge best construction practices and techniques in order to fulfill design integrity and authenticate design expression. For D.T. Hubbell Architects, the real success of residential architecture is not just making homes, but it is creating space of enduring value using timeless design principles. A distinctive home nurtured by past beauty and modern sensibility.

“Our design solutions do not duplicate the past, but instead adapt time-honored design principles to modern conditions and lifestyles. An architecture that —simultaneously evokes past and current contextual influences.”

OUR FIRM


Daniel T Hubbell, AIA LEED AP

FOUNDER/ PRINCIPAL

Born on the banks of Bayou St. John in New Orleans, Daniel was captivated by his city’s distinctive vernacular architecture. The fascination of how this unique place was created led him to study the field of architecture where he earned his Master of Architecture from Tulane University.

Shortly after arriving in Atlanta, Daniel had the privilege of co-coordinating the fixtures, furniture, and equipment for the thirty competition venues for the 1996 Atlanta Summer Olympic Games. He then traveled extensively through Europe, absorbing the classical design principles of enduring architecture.

In 2001, Daniel combined his early work experience with his discrete design dialect to found D.T. Hubbell Architects, a new firm designing custom homes. Soon after, he was selected Signature Architect for a custom, Southern-vernacular style neighborhood where he implemented both traditional and contemporary design principles - making each home design, exclusive. Though much of his earlier work was highlighted by large commercial projects, this experience of creating each home as unique and distinct has been a foundation in Daniel’s custom residential architecture over the last 20 years.

“It’s about creating a place that our client can solely call home- that’s tailored to their environment and desires, a place that is comforting and reflects the uniqueness of their lives.”

Daniel has been nurturing client-focused relationships– just as much as creating beautiful custom architecture. These two efforts– client-focused and custom-driven– are personally unique throughout our design and construction process.

Daniel consistently strives to provide new design solutions for his clients. He is regarded as one of Georgia’s leading residential architects due to his ability to create individual solutions with unique composition, which reveal context and place in a meaningful and contemporary way. He is also particularly skilled creating custom additions that carefully stand out while also blending in contextually.
