Purpose
The core philosophy of RDG’s practice is to create meaning together. Creation is a result of every interaction with our clients and those they serve. Ultimately, we help create lasting relationships between people and the places they live in and love. We find meaning in relationships and the deep connections people have to their environments. When we find meaning, we achieve a deeper understanding of how to create the very best spaces to work, live and play. Anything we achieve, we achieve as a collective. Our shared resolve compels us to create inclusive and meaningful environments that serve our clients and communities well.
Vision
Our people are truly what take RDG from good to great. We emphasize a culture focused on rewarding work that supports a greater purpose. By creating a work atmosphere where employees feel nurtured and supported, we empower them to challenge the status quo and continuously push our organization to do and be better.
Mission
To create meaningful projects, places and experiences together, with our teams, our clients and our communities.
