“We contacted D+Z when we wanted to create an interior for our new offices. We still feel really positive about the process. The way we were involved as part of a joint collaboration was fantastic. Collaborating with D+Z equals a continuous and constructive dialogue. Projects are a team effort. That’s something we learned.’’
