It takes focus, discipline and a deep understanding of architecture to complete the six-part Architect Registration Examination (ARE) – a rigorous process that, on average, takes nearly three years to finish. Devon Brogan, Hutton Design+Build team member, completed his in just five months. From September to February, Devon committed himself fully to studying, balancing intense preparation with his day-to-day responsibilities at Hutton. His ability to absorb complex material quickly and apply it with confidence speaks to both his technical skill and determination. His expertise and drive continue to make a meaningful impact on the Hutton Design+Build team, contributing to thoughtful design solutions and efficient project delivery. We’re excited to keep seeing his growth in action and the value he brings to our projects and clients.

To improve efficiency, we used Ironridge tilt legs to increase the panel angle by 15 degrees, maximizing solar production.
