### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Larry Linton, April 2022**

> I chose to work with Mark and the DSDG team after they were recommended by a potential contractor as someone who would "get the job done".
> I commissioned Mark and team to design a very custom design- modern glass/concrete waterfront home.
> DSDG took some areal views to determine my best view and designed the house to optimize the view while meeting my must haves & desires. The house looks great, very one of a kind, and more importantly, is "what I wanted" and am the person most impressed.
> I am amazed at the complements I receive on the house.
> Mark submitted a proposal, came up with a concept, and then detailed the final product. There were no surprises, or unexpected charges.
> I would not hesitate to recommend Mark and the DSDG team for a home project.

**★★★★★ — Chas, April 2022**

> Mark Sultana is a highly creative, and professional architect with a great sense od space, materials and aesthetic.  He has a wonderful team providing design and beginning to end support when needed.
> I couldn't be happier.

**★★★★★ — Ronald Edmonds, April 2022**

> Mark From DSDG did a wonderful job of taking our thoughts and concepts and putting them into reality.  He was easy to work with and the final product was exactly what we wanted - every detail.  Could not be happier with our home.  Thanks to Mark and the rest of the DSDG team.

**★★★★★ — James Lees, April 2022**

> Mark Sultana custom-designed a beautiful modern home to fit perfectly on our water-front property on Casey Key here in Osprey FL.  Mark was super-easy to work with and produced a home which was stunning and exceeded our wildest expectations.  DSDG produced all the architecture and engineering work needed so that a builder of my choice was able to go build our dream home.  Mark even recommended several builders of luxury water-front homes and arranged interviews for us with each builder.  The home, completed in November of 2021, is simply exquisite from top to bottom, with glass everywhere in the home providing unending views of the water.  I would highly recommend Mark Sultana and DSDG to anyone interested in designing a building a beautiful luxury home.

**★★★★★ — HU-743234622, April 2022**

> I came to Sarasota December 2015 and I needed an architect to plan my 1st house ( Mark got a lot of awards with that house) in USA ! When I met Mark in his office, I knew from the beginning : He is the right one - the energy was great! Now I finished the second house with him and starting the next! He is always in time, is doing the best, has always lot of wonderful ideas and for everything we find a solution ! Everybody can feel his passion! And his team is great too!

**★★★★★ — Trinity Custom Homes, Jan. 2019**

> I have had the pleasure of working with Mark Sultana on two sides of the construction Industry.   As a carpenter I have worked on a number of homes that Mark has designed and  as a builder I have also had the pleasure of building homes Mark has designed.   The reason I am writing this, is because I know first hand how smoothly a job can go when the plans are thorough and well done.   Mark's plans leave very little to the imagination and are very easy to build from.  This is crucial in being able to not only build a home, but also in developing budgets and clearly conveying ideas and details to sub contractors.  Mark and his team are easy to work with and bring incredible value and experience to each of their projects.  If you're looking to build, start your project off right with DSDG.

**★★★★★ — shelley rubin, April 2018**

> Mark went above and beyond to help us create a home that is simple yet stunning while being mindful of our budget. He’s a true artist, responsive and easy to work with

**★★★★★ — Caryl Kaplan, Dec. 2017**

> DSDG is an amazing firm especially due to Mark Sultana and his creative team.  They created a perfect home for my husband and me and understood exactly what we desired for our lifestyle ...I would recommend them to design your dream home.

**★★★★★ — Bruce & Lisa Beckstein, June 2017**

> Mark Sultana designed a beautiful modern home to our specifications on time and on budget. He was flexible to make changes we wanted during the design process but always balanced our requests with the design aesthetic. This resulted in a house that was both beautiful and functional to our requirements. Mark has always been easy to work with from design through construction administration including collaboration with our builder. As a result the construction phase is running smoothly and in budget. I would definitely recommend Mark.

**★★★★★ — dipinto9999999, Sept. 2016**

> I recently completed a new home designed by DSDG. The construction of the house over the last 10 months went very much according to plan. The house was built on time and within our original budget. The original architectural plan was extremely  thorough and detailed helping us avoid expensive change orders while building. I would highly recommend DSDG for a new custom residence.

**★★★★★ — West Coast Paint, LLC, Feb. 2015**

> We have worked personally with Mark Sultana, and his staff at DSDG for several years on many projects. Having had experience with various Architectural firms throughout our companys inception, We believe DSDG has raised the bar in innovating their designs into reality for the discerning clientele,and fully meeting expectations beyond other firms in the industry.
