JDR Design•Build projects stand out for their cultivated, creative, and highly functional approach to design. Raised on the tiny island of Faial in the Azores, a group of Islands off the coast of Portugal, Jorge Da Rosa began to draw and create at a very young age. Beginning with a precise but child-like study of lines and angles, he would spend hours sketching out future creations while staring off into the vast blue --- dreaming of what extraordinary inspiration existed in the world beyond. At the age of 18, terrified and thrilled, he embarked on a journey to California and brought his visionary ideals and passion for creation along with him.
