Design / Build

HDS’ visionary, global collective of cross-discipline specialists works with your team to efficiently transform your vision and initial design ideation from paper to an immersive, authentic, and hyper-local reality throughout the design-build process. Whether your needs involve a bespoke one-off or an extension of your established brand, we maintain a collaborative relationship with your principals, we take ownership of project for the duration of the entire design and construction process. Our holistic approach allows us to take responsibility for your outcome without reservation, aligning it to your wishes and needs while creating a cohesive narrative and allowing you to remain focused on your core business while we take care of the rest. We free you from having to manage multiple team members and components during all stages of development – pre-construction, construction, and the close-out phases.

Our strategies and systems ensure a powerfully immersive guest experience grounded in practical and profitable standards. Our streamlined methodology eliminates extra steps, redundancies, and gaps, dramatically reducing design iterations. 

After we’ve ascertained your project requirements, we rapidly assemble a team of real estate, engineering, and renowned architectural professionals – simultaneously we deploy an F&B concepting squad and specialists to specify the fine details – interior design, FF&E procurement, sustainability and LEED features, lighting schemes, soundscapes, etc. 

Our peer-reviewed property visioning process incorporates strenuous, detail-focused spatial programming which leads to a functional program that is maximally efficient and deeply pleasant on an aesthetic level. Space utilization is optimized through our AI-enabled guest mapping and traffic flow analysis software accurately forecasting how your guests will interact with and use your space. Best use is ensured, and revenue maximized, by a fanatical attention to details – whether accessibility considerations, the placement and sizing of furniture and equipment, and a boost to Back-Of-House equipment positioning.

Our finished project will exceed your expectations while meeting your budget and timeframe parameters and ensure the highest quality parameters. You will benefit from extreme cost savings while remaining fully compliant and be able to offer memorable and engaging guest journeys. We will maintain the continuous dialogue that you’ve enjoyed through the building process, following it with full branding support and augmentation, and the offer of full foundational assistance directed towards your operational burden. Our imagination, tethered to a cold, hard pragmatism, knows no bounds.
