Chris has not only a sharp and creative eye for design, but given his background, he is also astute at structural design. He counseled us every step on the way to build the shower of our dreams. In fact, every person that helped build our shower...from the plumber to the electrician and from the general contractor to the tile guys...they all said - WOW! I have never seen anything like this -- this shower could easily drop into the multi-million dollar homes that I have worked on. For a million dollar design -- and the space of your dreams -- Chris is the one to work with. He just "knows his stuff".

The morning of Tuesday August 29, 2017 we awoke to find 3 feet of water from the San Jacinto River in our home. In fact, our entire community and much of the greater Houston area were equally impacted by Hurricane Harvey. It was heartbreaking as our home was a little over 1 year old and as we were being taken out by boat; thinking about rebuilding was furthest from our minds. Our first order of business was clean up and second was to find a trustworthy and highly qualified firm to help us rebuild. The cleanup part was easy thanks to friends and family. But finding someone we could trust to help us rebuild was difficult given the widespread devastation and demand on such services.

We found Chris Hinton and Studio H + H Architects and convinced him to take on our project, even though his plate was already full will numerous flood related projects. But that overwhelming workload didn’t compromise the attention he paid to us and our project. From our first meeting I knew we had found the right guy. As we walked the project site and he was taking notes and pictures it became clear he really cared about helping us get our lives back together. The questions he asked were meaningful and his recommendations were thoughtful and valuable as we went through the rebuilding process. His team of tradesmen and craftsmen were top notch; they were always pleasant, cleaned up after themselves every day and charged reasonable market prices that were not inflated given the circumstances.

Chris’s experience and guidance was invaluable and the end product far exceeded our expectations. The schedule Chris outlined was spot on and his team delivered exactly what they committed to and at the time and price they promised. We could not be happier with the work performed; we would recommend Chris for any project, large or small.

Chris provided my wife and me with knowledgeable suggestions about our rebuild from
the flood. He was compassionate about the struggles we were experiencing and expedited
the work crews to "calm us down". The carpentry crew was outstanding and gives Chris the edge against other architects. Chris became a friend not only a business associate. We highly recommend Chris to others needing his skills.

Chris Hinton is the epitome of a truly talented and professional architect, plus he is just a genuinely nice person and joy to work with. Chris was a God send to my family after our home took in over 4 feet of water during the Hurricane Harvey flooding. Our home was a blank slate and Chris came up with some beautiful, creative and functional designs to put our house back together far superior than it was before. His attention to detail and managing all of the moving components of an entire first floor renovation, all while competing for limited resources due to the flood, was nothing short of amazing. The craftsmanship of all the trades Chris uses is impeccable. They were respectful and left my home picked up and clean at the end of each day which I appreciated. I highly recommend Studio H+H and will use Chris for any remodeling projects we do in the future.

Chris and his team were fantastic. I live in a north suburb of Houston and my project was slated to start the week after Hurricane Harvey hit. Because everything was ordered and paid for, we decided to get started. Even in the post storm chaos, the remodel went more smoothly than I could have expected. Chris had subs there one after another with hardly any lag time. The work is beautiful. Any small issues we did have, Chris handled it all. The new kitchen and wood flooring on the main floor make it seem like I built an entirely new house. I could not be more pleased or recommend Chris more highly.

We met Chris 3 years ago knowing we wanted to remodel our entire downstairs. He came up with a vision which we loved however we put on hold until we knew we were completely ready for the remodel (having 3 kids and finding the perfect time). We thought we were going to be ready in Spring of 2018 however God had a different plan when Hurricane Harvey came through. Being flooded we knew we didn't want to put Sheetrock where Sheetrock was going to be in our dream plan so we contacted Chris to see if he was available. From the bat, he was honest knowing he had other clients who flooded and had to take care of first so we came up with a game plan knowing we had to wait a little. Waiting for his expertise was the best decision we made! Throughout the process he was there, from picking out tile, to giving advise on flooring, counter-tops, fixtures, paints, working with the different trade specialists and even going downtown with me to pull the permits for our remodel since the city of Houston was giving us a hard time and the list can go on. Listen, I'm a man and I leave the decisions about the house to my wife (good or bad) but I will tell you Chris' knowledge and what he gives advise on is more than opinions but a true taste on what you're trying to accomplish. As I look back on this I can tell you the worst thing was that we flooded from Hurricane Harvey however the best thing was having studio H+H architects remodel our house. We went from throwing everything away downstairs to coming home to the dream home we always wanted. Again, remember this is from a man's point of view.

Studio H&H Architects and Chris Hinton did an outstanding job renovating our home after flood damage from Harvey. Under Chris’s guidance we took the opportunity to raise floors to a common level and to do major structural changes to enlarge rooms and change the floor plan including rebuilding fireplaces. Chris’s eye for design and his architectural skill led to an amazing outcome where the entire home flows consistently throughout – and is just stunningly beautiful now. The engineering, framing, cement, electrical, carpentry, plumbing, tile installation, brick mason, glass/mirror, and painting contractors were excellent in every way. Throughout the process Chris listened to our ideas and helped us make the best design decisions. His extensive knowledge of the many available accessories (lighting, hardware, shelving, tile, countertops, etc.) allowed us to consider many options and confidently land on great choices. Above all Chris is just a very nice person and a pleasure to work with. He was able to turn a terrifying unexpected disaster into a blessing for our home and our family.

I cannot say enough good things about Studio H + H Architects. From the very start, Chris’s knowledge and professionalism was outstanding. His ideas for our master bath remodel and kitchen update were better than anything we could have come up with on our own. He walked us through every part of the process and made sure everything ran smoothly. He even helped out when Hurricane Harvey hit with our roof and ceiling damage. He kept the project on schedule and on budget. His pricing was exact and there were zero surprises. Our new master bath is stunning and our kitchen update looks great too. I will definitely be using Chris for all our remodeling in the future.

I've never had a remodel go as smoothly as it did with H + H. The crews were consistently on time, they did beautiful work on our kitchen, and the finished product was remarkable. Chris made sure every detail was taken care of. My husband and I were extremely pleased and we would recommend them to anyone.

In 2016 we purchased a house in The Woodlands, Tx in need of major remodeling. In the very early stages of our remodel we recognized we needed a firm that was familiar with the unique requirements of The Woodlands and it's Township committees. Having only worked with Houston based architects we turned to Houzz for recommendations for architects based in The Woodlands. Houzz came to the rescue pointing us towards Chris Hinton of Studio H + H architects and what a wonderful choice Chris Hinton has been. From concept to final drawings to implementation Chris has been with us and our contractor all the way, step by step. Chris took the time to listen to our wants and needs and put them and his ideas altogether in drawings. He truly has great vision, he is very creative and very detailed. He has gone over and above the call of duty, whether it comes to determining the elevation of a faucet or virtually placing furniture in a room or locating excellent local trades. Chris has always obliged, always cooperated, never complained and always has great expert advice. We could not have done it without him and we wholeheartedly recommend him to anybody taking on residential construction/remodeling of any size. Chris takes the scare out of the nightmares many have experienced when undertaking a remodel!

We used Studio H + H architects, Chris Hinton, Principal, to renew our master bathroom.
We are very happy and satisfied with the results. Our bathroom looks elegant, modern and impeccable. Thanks to the professionalism and hard work from architect Hinton, our master bathroom is now beautiful exceeding all expectations.
Mr. Hinton followed up with attention to detail thru the whole process and helped us to look for the best choices for our bathroom. He took the time to go with us in person to see the variety of samples and colors, using topnotch materials and craftsmanship, simply he is the best architect in town, we recommend him highly, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Chris and your team for your fantastic job, well done!

Studio H+H completed a remodel job for a house we bought in The Woodlands. Chris did a great job of taking our ideas, adding his own, putting it on paper and then overseeing the job from start to finish. We couldn't be happier with the result and look forward to working with him on "phase 2."

We hired Chris to help us update our 80's vintage kitchen into something more open and useful for a family of 6. Chris was absolutely amazing during the whole process, working closely with me to provide what I had in my mind I wanted this project to turn out like, while giving me additional ideas that I would not have considered or thought of on my own. He was able to understand my style and color schemes I liked and strived to help me attain consistency in my choices so I didn't go wild and pick some crazy stuff. All of his coordination was done well with his choice contractors for plumbing, electricity, air, carpentry, painting, etc. which made my life much easier, though he was open to me picking one of my choosing should I desire. Chris was the best at keeping in touch, I probably talked to him more than I did my own husband for a few months there which tells you how devoted he is to doing the job right. We absolutely love the end result and can hardly believe we have such a beautiful upscale kitchen area to enjoy. People have asked, if I could do anything different, what would I do? My response is, absolutely nothing. I love all of it.

Studio H+H was outstanding!!!! We purchased a house in Montgomery for the footprint. I knew Chris and his firm would be able to come in and turn the house into what my wife and I dreamed of. We met with Chris and gave him our wish list. Chris turned our wishes to reality. He was exceptional! We gutted the house and then installed flooring, cabinetry, lighting,electrical, plumbing, counter tops, entertainment center and appliances. We wanted modern with clean lines. Chris and crew provided us with everything we asked for and more. If you ever need and expert that can turn your wishes to reality call Chris. He's very professional and has a vast knowledge of the industry. We love our new home. Btw we will be using him again for more renovations and exterior updates. Thanks Chris!!

Studio H&H was my "go-to" choice when selecting an architect for a major renovation to our family home. We wanted to add a large game room above a pre-existing 4 car garage. We needed the design to be highly functional and safe for growing boys but also to have a beautiful design aesthetic. Chris achieved what we had envisioned. He always listened to our wants and needs. He was flexible and adaptable. He is a perfectionist and always made sure that things were done properly. He considered the project and the result "his" and went above and beyond his role ensuring things were perfect. Highly recommend.

H+H is one of the most professional and committed companies we've ever hired for work in the home. Chris Hinton is dedicated, meticulous and runs the business with the highest integrity. He provided so many design ideas that we would have never been able to come up with in designin our new room (attic space conversion). We are extremely happy with the job! We highly recommend H+H.

I have worked with Chris on a few projects as a window and door supplier. I have been very impressed with his attention to each detail of the project. From concept to completion, he has his finger on every detail along the way. (Not from his office, he's on the job sites overseeing each component).

I have worked with many architects and can strongly recommend Chris and his team to anyone looking for a successful end to their project.

His in depth knowledge of arichiture, design, and products made sure our project was finished on time and under budget.

I had been wanting to make several unique changes to our kitchen and create a fantastic media room upstairs, but I had no idea who could help me make it ALL happen. My neighbor referred me to Chris Hinton with H&H Architects. From my very first consultation with Chris, I knew I was in great hands! Chris managed the process from start to finish. He checked in on the craftsman each day to ensure every detail was executed and on schedule. Chris and I collaborated to make my design vision come to life. With his recommendations, the project turned out perfect...even better than we ever imagined! Thank you Chris!

Mr. Hinton helped us design and update a large utility room (14 X 20). His innovative ideas helped to utilize all available space while creating a beautiful and inviting room. He helped us create a butler's pantry which I have always wanted. I now have a place for everything. Mr. Hinton was always available to answer any questions or concerns. If we had used Chris as the project manager we would have finished this project much sooner. However, any concerns that our contractor had were addressed by Chris in a timely manner.

We were excited to realize the unique designs Chris Hinton of Studio H + H Architects had in mind for our newly purchased, but older, one story patio home and now truly enjoy the results he envisioned and accomplished. Chris's consistent oversight from start to finish was encouraging and reassuring as he patiently worked with us. We could not be more pleased with our new improvements Chris instinctively felt were needed. Converting our study into an exciting walk in closet adjoining our master bedroom provided the year round storage I had always dreamed of enjoying. Then, redesigning our formal dining into a more efficient use as a home office with a beautiful wall of efficient and richly stained built in cabinetry for my husband to enjoy is now a room we both enjoy. By enhancing the foyer with more depth and redesigning the built ins flanking the living room fireplace, we enjoy our home even more.
We are always happy to recommend Chris to our friends and clients and are delighted to realize the exciting and refreshing designs he is gifting to our community! Chris truly is one of the best!

I hired H+H Architects after meeting with Chris Hinton to discuss remodel ideas and seeing one of his completed projects. Chris assisted on many levels including design concepts both inside and outside along with the architectural drawings required for permitting and construction. Once the project scope was set, Chris transitioned to a project manager. He found talented and reliable subcontractors and then oversaw the work to ensure the highest quality of workmanship.

Chris saved us from making several bad decisions and I believe we got the biggest bang for the buck due to his efforts. I'm thrilled with the results and would recommend H+H to anyone that is considering making improvements to a home, you will not be disappointed.

We could not be more pleased by the excellent remodeling job done this summer by Chris Hinton, studio H & H architects. His team of tradesmen were not only courteous, they were meticulous, punctual, very professional, and did an outstanding job. They took care to protect our carpeting and house furnishings, and even asked to use our vacuum cleaner so they could leave our home as clean as it was when they arrived! Chris Hinton not only met our expectations as an architect, he also became a valued friend. His consideration for our schedule was extremely impressive. If we could give Chris 10 STARS, we would do it!

Wonderful experience! Chris came out to the house and spent time reviewing different ideas with us. We didn't feel pressured or rushed. Ultimately, we decided to wait on the project, but when we are ready, I'll use him. I've shared his information with others who have used him and been very pleased.

He has a sharp attention to detail and a passion that exudes him. He is professional and innovative and goes the extra mile to make sure his finished product is everything you dreamed it would be. There is no doubt that we will use him in the future when we decide to add an addition to our beautiful home.
