About DAO
We exist so we can learn to create World Class Architecture.
DAO Architecture was established in Westminster, Colorado in 2009. We pride ourselves on accommodating all of our client’s needs, and creating long term client relationships. Our continued growth is an indicator that our clients appreciate this. The firm has grown from Dan starting the firm in 2009, and now employs 2 full-time Architects, 4 full-time Designers, and 1 administrative staff member.
DAO Architecture approaches every project as an opportunity to:
listen to a unique client; learn the client‘s goals and objectives; formulate concepts which express the essence of the client’s goals and objectives; verify the validity of these concepts with the client; and commit to the uniqueness of this shared vision. We believe it is this commitment that allows for the freedom and the faith required to trust – trust in the relationship with the client, and trust in the process of design.
DAO Architecture has experience working on projects across the country, and holds current licenses in Colorado, California, Missouri, Texas, Utah, and Arizona.
