About Us

About Us

Architects Designhaus (ADH) acknowledges the Tasmanian Aboriginal people and their enduring custodianship of lutruwita/Tasmania. We pay our respects to their elders—past, present, and future—and recognise the importance of their cultural heritage and connection to the land.

We are a long-standing, innovative architectural firm based in Hobart, Tasmania, specialising in contemporary design solutions for residential, commercial, institutional, and healthcare projects. Our expertise includes comprehensive contract administration services, ensuring that each project is executed efficiently and to the highest standards

ADH is proudly carbon neutral, adhering to the Climate Active Carbon Neutral Standard for Organisations. As a signatory of Australian Architects Declare Climate & Biodiversity Emergency, we are committed to maintaining our carbon neutrality and promoting sustainable development in alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We have mapped our operations to the SDGs and are continually advancing policy settings to support our sustainability objectives. Since establishing our carbon footprint baseline in 2022, we aim for an annual 7% reduction in our carbon footprint, demonstrating our dedication to environmental responsibility.

As one of Australia’s oldest architecture firms, ADH is committed to creating architecture that is symbolic, respectful, sustainable, and adaptable. This dedication has been recognised through numerous RAIA Commendation Awards over the decades. Our work is designed to endure while evolving with Tasmania’s diverse socio-cultural and natural landscapes. We pay homage to the traditional owners of lutruwita, ensuring that our designs reflect and honour the region’s rich heritage and values.
