HJA DESIGN STUDIO ,LLC
PALM CITY, FLORIDA

HJA Design Studio, LLC is a Florida-based design firm located at 50 East Ocean Blvd. Suite 101, Stuart, FL 34994. Founded on March 28, 2010, and incorporated under Florida company status with the filed number L10000034774, HJA specializes in creating sustainable solutions for public infrastructure projects. The firm gained recognition through its successful engagement with Martin County to redesign its historic 36-hole golf course, originally built in 1925. The project was a collaborative effort with Sanford Golf Design, Stephen Boruff Architects, Bowman Consulting, and the National Golf Foundation, where HJA outperformed six other competing teams. The firm's initiative, supported by Parks and Recreation Director Kevin Abatte, aims to develop a long-range master plan ensuring the golf facility's sustainability while offering quality experiences at an affordable price for both residents and visitors. Community involvement was significant, with visioning workshops conducted to evaluate alternative scenarios for the course’s development. As a testament to its innovative designs, HJA also played a pivotal role in facilitating Okeechobee County Commissioners' approval of the Sundance Trails Eco-Resort—an 850-acre planned Resort Activity Center (RESAC), emphasizing community engagement and eco-friendly use of native pine flatwoods. HJA Design Studio is under the management of Craig M. Houston and continues to expand its portfolio in sustainable design, as evident from their projects and business model. The company maintains an active online presence with further details available on their website, hjadesignstudio.com.
