Dominique Davison, AIA, NOMA, established Davison Architecture + Urban Design (now DRAW) in 2005 to unite design, technology, research, community engagement, and environmental stewardship. Pioneered by Davison, the DRAW team are thought leaders in Positive Impact Design. This ethos includes elevating the urban and site context, going beyond great aesthetics to understand the cultural + socioeconomic dynamics while utilizing DRAW’s radically resourceful process to design with empathy + activism. With a Master of Architecture from Yale University and a Bachelor of Art in Architecture from the University of California, Berkeley, Dominique’s efforts have been celebrated by AIAKC, DRAW as the firm of the year in 2014 and as architect of the year in 2018.
