The partnership of Klaus Reuter and Martin Henchion began in Leipzig in 1994, with offices established in Berlin in 1998 and in Dublin in 1999.

The HRA office sustains the broadest spectrum of design interests and will engage with the physical world at the scale of machine, building or landscape, that is; wherever architectural consideration can give meaningful form to new ideas.

The practice portfolio is consequently diverse in scale, programme and architectural intensity, ranging from one-off private houses to cultural and community buildings, hotels and housing projects, bridges, biomes and landscapes.
