Studio
At dC Design we’ve tailored our approach to incorporate thoughtful and carefully chosen materials, finishes and designs to maximize the beauty of the spaces we create. Achieving the highest attention to detail and creativity is our specialty, and our top priority is providing a highly personalized experience for our clientele. It's important to us that we focus on implementing personal details and touches that speak to their taste, and our expertise is striking the right balance of seamless designs that ultimately reflect the personality of the owner.

Philosophies
We design from the inside out.
We begin a design by understanding the spaces most important to our clients and how they need/wish to experience their environment.
We seek originality.
We pursue unique spaces that are a reflection of how our clients live, the styles they are drawn to and the setting in which the building is/will become a part of.
We pursue balance.
Blending built spaces with the natural environment, carefully balancing spaces intended for gathering with those intended for respite, and meticulously merging forms to create harmonious, timeless spaces is always our objective.
No Kitsch.
We don’t imitate a single style but draw inspiration from various sources, and seek comfort, simplicity and confidently composed spaces for living… spaces for one to thrive. Each design naturally evolves while we seek to create homes for modern living.
Details Matter.
Truly unique spaces are grounded in proven principles and thoughtful concepts, and we believe creating an artful & well-composed home takes a constant evaluation of materials and key intersections of present and proposed elements. But, we are confident that every step of the process should be a focus to the finer details of it all--this belief will always be at the foundation of what we design.

Andy Drake
Design Director
Andy always wanted to be an architect. At a young age, his father would bring him along to home appraisals, and he would draw new homes in his free time. Since then, he has worked to better understand the built environment, gaining experience working on local and international projects. Over the course of these projects, Andy gained an appreciation for problem-seeking; the recognition that successful projects are the result of understanding client’s needs, the particulars of the site, and aesthetic preferences. After graduating from the University of Oregon, Andy stayed in Eugene and married his college sweetheart, Samantha. Their two rescue pups occasionally help out in the office, keeping morale high!
