About David T. Darling, AIA, IIDA, ASLA
David Darling is a founding principal of Aidlin Darling Design, formed with Joshua Aidlin in 1997, with a shared interest in exploring design across a wide range of scales, programs, and disciplines including institutional, commercial and residential architecture, as well as furniture, landscape and interior design. Mr. Darling has cultivated his interest in the connection between art, food, wine, and place through his involvement in Slow Food USA, the James Beard Foundation, and through his firm’s work on a wide range of projects, including a LEED Platinum restaurant in San Francisco, a contemplative art chapel at Stanford University, a 160,000 square foot LEED Gold destination production brewery in San Leandro, and four wineries in California that push the boundaries of sustainability in agriculture and building.
His firm’s work explores a closely held conviction that design can enlighten the human spirit by engaging all of the senses. This notion was most recently on display at his firm’s installation “Site & Senses” at the Sonoma Valley Museum of Art. The firm’s exploration has included projects as far away as Doha Qatar and Hong Kong, and as diverse as product development for Herman Miller Inc., a high school in Santa Rosa, and a Cultural Arts Center in San Francisco.
His firm has garnered over 90 regional, national, and international awards including the 2013 National Design Award-by the Smithsonian’s Cooper- Hewitt Nation Design Museum for their complete body of work, a James Beard Award for restaurant design, a National AIA “COTE” award and “COTE Top 10 Plus” award for excellence in sustainable design, three American Architecture Awards from the Chicago Athenaeum, an International Civic Trust Award, and several local, state and national awards from the AIA, IIDA, and ASLA.
