Hall is best known for his residential works on Massachusetts' Cape Cod which were designed to nestle within, rather than overtake, the natural landscape.
Hall and friends, Jack Phillips and Hayden Walling were three self-taught, designer-builders in Wellfleet who created a welcoming environment for European Modernists arriving in the mid-1940s.
In 1956, Hall began working for a succession of New York City architectural firms including Nardin and Radoczy, Tom Lee Ltd., Hughes & Hood, and George Nelson and Company.
In 1959, he spent four months in Moscow helping to assemble an installation titled The Jungle Gym, George Nelson's contribution to the American National Exhibition.
Hall worked with Charles and Ray Eames on a light fixture in 1964 and designed a café table for the Museum of Modern Art's restaurant.
