Hughes Cauffman
Francis Cauffman Responds to the Passing of Founding Partner Hughes Cauffman
NEW YORK, NY – The multi-disciplinary architecture firm Francis Cauffman is saddened to announce that firm founder David Hughes Cauffman, AIA, passed away on September 27, 2016. Cauffman, along with fellow University of Pennsylvania alumni James Francis and George Wilkinson, founded Francis, Cauffman & Wilkinson in 1954. Born in 1916, Cauffman was 99 years old, and was the firm’s oldest and last living founder.
“Hughes was a visionary, a mentor and friend to the hundreds of architects who worked with him over his many decades in the profession,” said James Crispino, President of Francis Cauffman. “His exceptional honor, integrity, and commitment to the field of architecture drove the growth and staying power of the firm he founded. Everyone who knew Hughes—clients as well as colleagues—will remember him as an egalitarian leader who shared his expertise with tremendous enthusiasm and warmth.”
After Cauffman joined forces with Francis and Wilkinson, the three ambitious architects built a business known for its knowledge of the field and its strong bonds with clients. In 1955, they merged with an established Philadelphia practice run by another Penn alumnus, Hayward Pepper, becoming Francis Cauffman Wilkinson & Pepper. The firm went through several name changes over the years as new partners arrived, all the while building a reputation based on the founding partners’ conviction that architecture could be a catalyst for well-being.
Cauffman, a native of Philadelphia, received his B.Arch. from Penn in 1940. He founded Francis Cauffman after several years in the field, first as draftsman at Harbeson, Hough, Livingston & Larson (1947-49), then as project architect at Willing, Sims & Talbutt (1951-52), and later chief designer at George M. Ewing (1952-54). Hughes served as Lieutenant Commander in the U.S. Navy from 1941-45. He also participated on the U.S. field hockey team at the 1948 Summer Olympics in London. He served on the Board of Directors of the Philadelphia AIA and was president of the Carpenters’ Company of Philadelphia.
