Engineering that elevates architecture

Daedalus was founded in 2007 by Doug Robertson with a clear vision: to be engineering partners who enable great architecture, not constrain it.

Named after the legendary craftsman of Greek mythology—the architect of the labyrinth and father of Icarus—we embrace the spirit of innovative making. Like our namesake, we believe that technical mastery should serve creative vision.

Today, our team of engineers brings that same ethos to every project. Whether it's a hillside residence, a civic building, or a winery pavilion, we approach each structure as an opportunity to solve problems creatively and enable designs that might otherwise seem impossible.
