Founded in 2012 by Elena Hale and Daniel Stone, in a former printing shop in Denver.
Hale & Stone started with two architects, one borrowed table and a belief that buildings should be shaped by their land, not the other way around.
Today we are nine people working in timber, stone and daylight. We stay small on purpose: every project has a partner from the first site walk to the day you move in.
OUR BELIEF
The greenest building is often the one already standing. When we do build new, we build to last a hundred years.Thegreenestbuildingisoftentheonealreadystanding.Whenwedobuildnew,webuildtolastahundredyears.
