Vanessa Till Hooper is an architectural designer and installation artist who creates immersive, site-specific experiences that bring meaning, connection, and beauty to public spaces. Her work traverses the overlapping disciplines of art and design. With a masters degree in architecture and a bachelors degree in art, Vanessa approaches each project as an opportunity to engage with a deeper understanding of site, the feeling of the space, the objects and materials within the built environment, the layered history of the region, but also community context, and the zeitgeist of the current era. “All of these elements are considered site in my process.”

In early 2018, she founded Studio HHH, and together with her small team of doers and makers, she has executed a wide range of projects; a three story digital art canvas on the facade of the Puma building in Somerville, an interactive wall the length of a football stadium in Fort Lauderdale, a projection installation in downtown Boston for people to experience art from inside their cars during the pandemic. She in now working on a proposal for the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles and renovating her own home in North Adams, MA.
