Hello.

We’re GDS – a nimble team of seasoned architects, interior designers, and brand experts who bring projects to life with care, intention, and creativity.

We don’t just design beautiful spaces – we create meaningful experiences.

From vibrant restaurants to dynamic workplaces; from pool-side bungalows to custom large-scale residences; every environment we shape is thoughtfully designed to connect with the people who live, work, and gather within it.

"We hired GDS to help Design our new restaurant because we had a good experience working with them on the bar at our flagship location. They did an outstanding Job on both projects. They provided innovative ideas that helped improve the concept we were going for and kept the project on schedule and on budget. Highly Recommend GDS"

"I use GDS to design the third location of my restaurant Atlantic Poké. Alex And his team were very professional and offered some great Insight to help me bring my new space to life. I will definitely choose them for future projects."

— Michael Tomaiolo
"Alex & his team are an exceptional and professional business. We reached out to GDS needing a design for a last minute emergency project that technically took a turn for the worse due to existing conditions. Alex jumped right on an was able to come up with a design and blue prints relatively quickly considering typical lead times for plans. I will definitely be referring him in the future!"

— Scott Richard
"Alex and Adam were super helpful and responsive throughout the whole process. They helped pull in all the sub-vendors needed to get the job complete. Would highly recommend them."

We are
passionate

We design spaces where people live, work, and gather. And we love shaping brands that people are drawn to — and return to — again and again.

We listen, learn & synthesize

Then we take all those inputs and design and adapt with intent and purpose. Our process is deeply collaborative and supported by people who are quick, experienced, and ready for anything.
