David Hitchcock, ASAi Principal, began his career 30 years ago in San Francisco, California. In 1979 he made the move to Calaveras County, California, joining the firm of Lyon & Brown in Arnold, CA. He acquired Lyon & Brown creating a new firm, Aspen Street Architects in 1982.

In 1990 the company expanded and moved into a historically significant Victorian in Angels Camp, CA. By the year 2000 the firm had added School Facilities and Funding Support to it's menu of services and became incorporated. In 2001, Structural Engineering services were added. Civil Engineering joined in 2003.

In September 2002, ASAi moved to their current location which provides room for the growth we have incurred and plan in the future.

ASAi is a dynamic and comprehensive design firm. Integrating the best of each specialization, we are experts at taking each project from funding through all phases of construction.
