Joao is superbly professional. He understands the intricacies of a project both from a guest and efficiency perspective. He is able to meet impossible deadlines with a positive outlook. He would be my first choice as a designer because he comprehends both the detail and the overall product.
JRD Studio transformed our lodge into a destination of distinction, revamping 27 suites, public areas and conference facility with reverence to the landscape and local culture. By upscaling existing pieces and commissioning local artisans, they delivered a curated design with precision and authenticity, empowering the community, delivering on time and within budget.
I think that the team was able to put our vision into reality. We particularly liked Joao’s practical and functional approach to design which married well with the other design elements brought in by the team. Like any big project carried out overseas it had its difficulties but the team was able to find solutions, work through them and deliver! We would definitely recommend!
Your work on the Ghana Residential Complex, and your two lake side lodges at Funda, Angola were of the highest standard. I highly recommend your company.
Smudge Technologies approached JRD Studio to review our existing office space and propose potential design improvements. The recommendations they provided were perfectly aligned with our culture, brand, and the image we wanted to project. Through thoughtful design changes and subtle renovations, JRD transformed our outdated offices into an open, modern, and professional environment.
Each area now carries its own distinct personality — from the welcoming entrances to the collaborative workspaces and the boardroom for meetings. Their ability to capture the essence of who we are as a company and translate that into our physical space has been truly impressive.
I was blown away with the work performed by Joao. He worked with me to find creative solutions to meet my expectations and budget. Joao’s passion for his work, his commitment to meeting client expectations and open and honest approach resulted in a masterpiece. I’m so proud of my beautiful home and happy with the results. I would definitely work with Joao again. I would highly recommend him and his team.
Very efficient and stuck to the brief within the budget and on time.
A home renovation is very personal, and you hope to get a product that you would be happy to live with for a long time. The design philosophy of JRD respects this. They were able to incorporate the many ideas that I had into a home that is functional, sophisticated, aesthetically pleasing yet hospitable with a timeless charm. The project delivery was very professional, delivered within the allowable timeframe, budget changes were well communicated in advance and agreed to by both parties. They were able to offer alternative solutions to achieving the same look and feel without compromising quality and durability. They have great respect for what was, what is here and what is to come; without the vulgarity of fast fashion. I would certainly do another project with them should an opportunity present itself.
We were extremely pleased with the result of the project. JRD Studio’s professionalism is to be commended. They left no stone unturned in achieving the end result and completed the project within the expected time frame. The quality of the finishes was exceptional.
The level of communication was exemplary, and we received constant feedback and updates, including continued attention to value-adds. All our questions and queries, no matter how big or small, were dealt with immediately, with responses to calls / messages given within the hour. Nothing was too much, and we were kept informed of progress throughout. The customer service was truly excellent.
