Rico del Moral
Partner Emeritus
As Senior Designer, Rico was responsible for leading the design of all architecture projects. He approached each project with a desire to explore a range of directions and bring fresh thinking free of preconceived notions. Rico believes that architecture is appreciated both from a distance and up close, which is why he led the design team through a hands-on approach from beginning to end, with an unwavering focus on carrying the vision through to the smallest details.
A true creative, Rico cultivates design thinking and pursues artistic endeavors inside and outside the office. At DES, he was the driving force behind the DES Sketchers club and an active participant in the photography group, Hot Shots. Rico spends his free time painting and woodworking, often finding inspiration in these crafts.
