“We like to say that we don’t just design homes, we bring visions to life,” says Dan Wildeboer, the founder and creative mind behind the firm. Over the course of his career, Dan has contributed to the design of over 16,000 homes in Edmonton and abroad. Prior to forming his own company, he worked as a designer and design manager with several production homebuilders, where he honed and refined his construction knowledge. He founded DRAW Designs from his home office in 2006, after being approached by an industry contact that admired his work and wanted him to design a series of more custom products. In 2009, after the birth of his first child, Dan moved into a stand-alone office. A year later, he hired his first employee, who remains with the business today. Since then, the company has progressed considerably – they have moved into several new premises as they have grown, they have added six architectural technologists to their team, and they have developed a first-rate reputation in their region. According to Dan, the reputation they have developed is for delivering “luxury” to their clients.
