ABOUT HTK: HTK Architects has successfully provided its clients with comprehensive architectural services since the firm was founded in 1958. Now into our sixth decade with offices in Topeka and Overland Park, HTK has continued to evolve, adding key associates and keeping an eye to the future-completing new design, addition and renovation projects throughout the region. HTK’s success is founded on providing creative vision, innovative designs, and timeless satisfaction. We do not believe in shortcuts, understanding there is no substitution for hard work and outstanding service. We want to ensure our basic tenants are met: discipline, professionalism, consistency, timeless design, and earning the trust of those we work for. PHILOSOPHY: We are dedicated to providing comprehensive design services of the highest knowledge and quality. Good design is the result of effective communication, creative reasoning that is sensitive to individual client needs and a responsible control of the building process. We successfully address our client needs by designing buildings that meet budgets, time and performance criteria. The simple fact that many clients retain HTK for additional work stands testament to our innovative solutions that meet client needs. COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE: A key to HTK’s continued success is the dedication of our professional staff and principals. We measure the worth of our firm by the quality of our architects. One principal is routinely assigned to each project and remains directly responsible to the owner from project inception to completion. HTK’s principals and staff work together as a team, applying their combined professional experience throughout the design, construction document and construction administration phases.
