JDD Studio (formerly James Dayton Design) is an award-winning architecture, planning, and interior design firm based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Focusing on contemporary design solutions our work includes projects in arts, education, commercial, hospitality, worship, and residential contexts.

For 26 years we have practiced in the spirit of thoughtful collaboration and hands-on design work. Central to our design approach is an authenticity of time and place, and a belief that environments should be unique expressions of their users regardless of design style or building type. The design process for each of our projects is as individualized as the resulting spaces with the common thread being an iterative path of collaboration with our clients. We believe that good partnerships make good architecture, and are committed to providing creative and considered design solutions while never losing sight of the people at the heart of the process.
