About
DSK has 4 decades of experience designing buildings and spaces throughout New England. Beautiful, sustainable, and balanced, we are committed to unique designs that reflect our clients as individuals. Through every step of the process, we invite our client’s involvement, creating spaces that are livable and attractive, where every detail is carefully considered.
We are problem-solvers who enjoy finding solutions. We listen to our clients’ ideas and needs, finding innovative ways to incorporate them into the original design. As issues arise during the building phase, we work with contractors and our clients to adapt the design and keep the process moving.
From the first discussion to the structure’s completion, we are there to support, advise, and guide our clients as much as they wish, ensuring that the process is as enjoyable as the result.
