Since starting the firm in 1981, John di Domenico has directed the design of the firm’s public and private sector projects. His overall approach to leading the design and management process is rooted in practical and academic experience. As Founding Principal, Harvard Design School graduate, Fulbright Scholar, and Professor at the New York Institute of Technology, John has developed a studio-office environment in which principal-led group involvement in architectural and planning projects evolves into project-long development of ideas and management strategies. John currently directs and develops projects focusing on the design and adaptive reuse of memorable spaces for public and private activity. In 2013, he was awarded the Sydney L. Strauss Award from the New York Society of Architects for outstanding achievement for the benefit of the architectural profession.

Process

di Domenico + Partners’ collaborative approach to design fosters a creative studio environment that encourages curiosity and experimentation.

In dD+P’s design process, studio members collaborate with clients and team members to find opportunities at each site to shape memorable spaces that respond to context, legacy, and user needs. The studio’s process is analogous to making a collage—various elements come together through creative orchestration to form a unique work.

dD+P explores design ideas through defining creative approaches to each project. We explore tactile qualities through physical modeling, utilize collaborative software to build consensus, and leverage innovative technology to solve complex problems. Our understanding of materials produces buildings and landscapes that are assembled with thoughtful craftsmanship. Green design is at the core of our practice, with sustainable strategies integrated into each of our projects from their outset.
