“Charles Hilton and his team are superlative in every respect. They are a talented group of architects, with great attention to detail, highly professional and superbly organized. Led by Charles, their constant care for pleasing and doing the right thing for clients is always a priority. It is our honor and pleasure to work with them.

Charles and his team were always responsive and communicated accurately and promptly to questions and concerns. An amazingly beautiful project, well designed and adeptly executed.”
“The words I want to use to describe Chuck's talents will sound contrived, but all is true. He is incredibly talented and well versed in the classical language. His work is pristine and the attention to detail is impeccable. Chuck works very hard, and always oversees his designs to completion. Timeless with so much character, Chuck understands his clients and listens to their needs. As we enter into a more modern era, he maintains his use of the classical language creating timeless designs while integrating a more modern style into the interior architecture seamlessly. I admire him, and his work. Chuck has certainly added to the landscape of Fairfield and Westchester counties in a very positive way. ”

Read More“As an Architectural Lighting Designer for nearly 30 years, I have had the opportunity to work with many world known architects and Chuck's (Charles Hilton's) name should be included in that list. His work is elegant and refined. Even the most challenging restraints result in beautifully proportioned and workable designs. His steadfast drive for excellence and realizing his client's dreams is accomplished through highly detailed construction documents (every room elevated and every detail described) and attention to detail. But Chuck can also think fast, resolving design problems with a quick pencil sketch in the filed or at the conference table. He is an excellent leader and has a seemingly endless knowledge of all things architectural. I consider myself fortunate to have worked with Chuck on so many beautiful projects and I feel that working with him has made me a better designer.”

The contractor is then on his own to solve the problems and the coordination of the trades on site. It was very refreshing, and a pleasure to work with Chuck Hilton’s team. They took the time and effort to draw the details and confirm how each trade interfaced, solving the problems of coordination, and controlling the finishes and therefore the final outcome of the project. This kind of service and expertise is rare in the market today, and an absolute joy to be involved in and with.”

A civic-minded firm, its architects have generously shared their knowledge and expertise to foster local education and historic preservation initiatives.

And, to celebrate the Town’s 375th anniversary last year, the firm designed and implemented for the Greenwich Preservation Network of the Greenwich Historical Society the first of what will become a series of eleven local Historic District signs to be mounted throughout the Town. These unique signs, which are beautiful, practical, and informative, include a map, an app, and a brief history of the area’s historical importance for use by both pedestrians and motorists. In each instance, Charles Hilton Architects provided exemplary personal service.”
