Our Awesome Story
Construction Design Services (CDS) is a Bahamian Architecture and Planning practice that is firmly rooted in the western end of New Providence, and indeed the entire Bahamas. CDS has completed numerous projects in prestigious communities like Lyford Cay, Old Fort Bay, Ocean Club Estates, Albany, Charlotteville and Schooners Bay (Abaco).
With two Licensed Architects, a Senior Designer, an Executive Administrator, and a very accomplished draftspersons, CDS has over 50 years of combined experience in designing high-end custom homes. Complimenting this wealth of experience comes a number of significant accomplishments by CDS’s Design team, namely; Stefan P. Russell (Licensed Architect) graduated Magna Cum Laude, no.1 in his class, from University of Miami School Of Architecture, Miami, Florida, and was awarded the coveted Henry Adams Medal for this achievement; and Alfred Saunders (Licensed Architect) received a Masters in Architecture from the Illinois Institute Of Technology, Chicago, Illinois.
CDS is committed to the belief that a home should not only look good, but it should “live good” as well; once designed and built, the owner’s desired outcome would inevitably be realized. We work very closely with our clients to deliver the best possible home that they want and deserve.
Some specific work in the communities mentioned above would be The Lyford Cay Club Renovations, Old Fort Bay Club House, Canal Beach “Key West” Style Homes (Old Fort Bay), and collaborating on the Albany Ocean View and Beach Front Cottages. In addition to consistently doing work in these communities, CDS is actively involved in other residential projects such as Schooner Bay (a new residential development on Abaco Island, Bahamas), and Over Yonder Cay (in the Exumas, Bahamas). CDS has collaborated with numerous foreign architects and design professionals to help to bring many other projects to life, such as F3 Architects (London, England), SAOTA Architects (Cape Town, South Africa), dlGV Architects (Coral Gables, Florida), Concepts West Architecture (Colorado Springs, Colorado) Terry Irwin Architects (Orlando, Florida), Zinc Design Services, Inc. (West Palm Beach, Florida), GMA Architects (Orlando, Florida), and Sanchez Maddux (Coral Gables).
