DOA·S focuses on providing full architectural scope of services for new construction and/or renovation projects of residential, retail, or office use.
We thrive through the early design stage, understanding the project’s fundamental purpose; enjoy the design development and documentation process through collaboration with other professionals, while ensuring efficient delivery; and ultimately aim to see projects completed through construction to ensure the project’s objectives.
With past experience in design and execution of highly detailed tenant spaces, we welcome the complexities of tenant improvement projects in both retail and office uses as an engaging challenge.
We specialize in highly functional spatial planning, prioritizing the importance of circulation and efficient furniture layout while incorporating suitable architectural aesthetics.
We enjoy the constant discovery process or renovations. Having been involved in a number of restorations to vintage buildings of masonry and wood construction, we welcome the challenges associated with upgrades to building envelope, interior upgrades, or additions to projects of residential, retail, or office use.
Interior Design
We love the highly detailed nature of interior projects and welcome the opportunities to inject our creativity and spatial planning expertise. We prioritize the functionality of spaces and how new interventions improve the lives of those who inhabit the space.
Early stages of exploration are an exciting period to discover the wide range of possibilities within a given project site. We excel at iterative design to explore all future development possibilities for any architectural project and our previous experience allows us to provide feasibility study services for a wide range of occupancy, uses, and project scales.
Custom Objects
Our passion for small-scale work enables us to envision projects with a high level of detail. Whether it’s an interior or exterior installation, our creative abilities allow us to design and document the desired object based on contextual parameters. We enjoy the process of making, and thrive through collaboration with the makers and builders who put it all together.
