Architectural Design as Cultural Wellness
DSGNX creates spaces rooted in culture, community, and identity — making architecture a form of wellness.
About DSGNX
DSGNX is a design practice built on the idea that true wellness begins with belonging. Our work transforms cultural stories into architectural experiences that feels like home — grounding people in place, memory, and care. Led by Dwayne Smith Alexander, DSGNX draws from real work - including his time as the senior designer for The Brotherhood Sister Sol Center, featured in The New York Times.
