EnvironmentalResponsivenessRKI is dedicated to a position of en-vironmental responsiveness with respect to each stage of its develop-ment projects. In alliance with the Museo Del Hombre in the Dominican Republic, RKI conducted an unprece-dented, pre-ground breaking archae-ological rescue mission to preserve important on-site artifacts at its Rōco Ki project located there. Our master plans utilize appropriate land use and conservation measures. Our in-novative designs create unique living spaces that present a low-impact on the natural surroundings.

Rōco Ki - Master Plan

Innovative DesignRKI’s innovative design ideas are transformed into modern architectural styles that represent local cultures, traditions and the native landscape. Light and open designs allow for the relationship of the natural and man-made environ-ments to coexist in harmony. The promotion of green architectural guidelines furthers the team’s focus on sustainable principles that uphold RKI’s commit-ment to the preservation of the local environment.

Sustainability

RKI creates sustainable develop-ments where partnership with the government, the local investors and, most importantly, the local citizens is a vital component of our projects. Each of our developments is de-signed to create long-term economic opportunity and foster new commu-nities that become destinations in themselves.

Cultural AuthenticityRKI embraces the vitality of the local cultures, making them an inte-gral part of the brand and unique nature of each development. We study the history behind the people and work closely with local artists, museums, and all cultural venues to create vibrant authenticity and unparalleled experiences in living.

Richard Knorr

Richard Knorr is a master planner and developer who has spent the past decade building Richard Knorr International, Ltd. (RKI) into a turn-key master builder organization with the experience and expertise necessary to deliver compre-hensive real estate development services.

Prior to RKI, Richard spent ten years with the prestigious design firm VOA, where as Vice President and Design Prin-cipal, he managed the Special Projects Division and gained invaluable experience in real estate consulting, as well as all aspects of development programming, including design, technical, finance and marketing. As Design Partner at VOA, Richard completed the design for the tallest mixed-use Class A building ever constructed in the Caribbean, the Citibank Tower at the Acropolis Commercial Center located in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

Before the construction of the Acropolis began, Richard decided to pursue his unique business model and formed RKI. RKI was immediately hired to complete the landmark Acropolis, the success of which subsequently led to a num-ber of mixed-use commercial projects both abroad and in the United States.

Nearly ten years later, RKI is now recognized for creative real estate programming, entrepreneurship and design excellence. As a master builder organization, RKI has fo-cused its efforts toward signature mixed-used and commu-nity development.
