Residential
Successful residential environments demand both innovative de-
sign and careful consideration of context, amenities, landscaping
and cultural or regional influences. From towering high-rise housing
developments to elaborately planned communities, thoughtfully de-
signed townhomes to elegant contemporary villas, loft-style urban
apartments to dramatic waterfront residences, and country cottages
to luxury condominiums, DDG creates exceptional living spaces that
resonate with a sense of community, comfort, security and style.
