Kirk Rose has been appointed president at HMC Architects. A veteran healthcare architect and proven strategic leader, Rose will work alongside CEO Brian Staton to help guide the firm through a period of rapid change and opportunity in the architectural industry.
Rose assumes the role following a decision to separate the positions of CEO and president — previously held by Staton — in order to strengthen the firm’s ability to address emerging trends, technologies and client needs. Staton will remain CEO and continue to focus on firm strategy, design, culture, technology and geographic growth. As president, Rose will concentrate on advancing HMC’s core practice areas, marketing strategy, revenue development and client advisory services.
With over 40 years in architectural practice — including three decades in firm leadership — Rose brings unmatched expertise to his new role. His leadership has been instrumental in delivering landmark master plans and complex projects across healthcare, education and civic sectors.
