 CSHQA began in 1889 as a one-man, one-room office when William S. Campbell, a Scotsman educated at the School of Architecture in Edinburgh, moved to Boise to practice architecture.As years passed and more architects joined the firm, the name changed to reflect the additional partners.In 1979, it was known as Cline Smull Hamill Quintieri Associates and in 1985 it was shortened to CSHQA.
