Discover Santo Domingo’s Zona Colonial, the first European city in the Americas, designed under the Law of the Indies—a 1500s Spanish rulebook that shaped cities across Latin America. From perfect grids and central plazas to the modern-day energy of music, art, and street life, this urban plan was built for control but evolved into something vibrant. Walk the historic streets, feel the past come alive, and check out my curated Google Map for the best design spots in the city!

I’m an architectural interior designer who loves visiting great restaurants, hotels, and monuments during my travels worldwide. I also love understanding what makes people in these countries tick. I own and operate a small design firm called ASIG Design based in Minneapolis, MN, USA, and Shanghai, China. We focus on small to medium-sized hospitality projects around the world.
