this may sound like a joke, but i heard it stands for Reiser. Rumor is, Jessie Reiser's mother designs traditional homes in the hamptons. Can anyone verify this?

yuk yuk yuk LB.

i figured when they first started the firm they were trying to appeal to a younger teenie bopper crowd as "dA' Office" but then once they got some more serious clients they reversed it.
