WHO WE ARE
Abel Design Group, Ltd. is respected as a progressive and client-driven boutique design firm.  The company was founded in 2001 by University of Texas School of Architecture graduate Jeffrey Abel, who as Principal is an active member of the ADG team.  ADG began as a company specializing in tenant improvement design, and has since expanded to a full-service Architectural firm with expertise including Master Planning, Architecture, Interior Architecture, and Consulting.

As a boutique design firm, Abel Design Group offers many advantages not available in larger firms, including extensive Principal and senior level manager involvement.  Its designers work together and learn from each other’s experience in architecture, space planning, interior design, furniture coordination, project consultation, and construction administration. Their combined experience helps ADG offer clients a high quality product that exceeds their expectations while staying within budget.

ADG has two design studios: Architecture and Interior Architecture. Each studio is firmly committed to thoughtful and creative solutions, executed with efficiency and professionalism.

 

PHILOSOPHY
ADG was founded with the goal of being one of the best design firms in Houston, not one of the biggest.  The company has a strong history of meeting deadlines and budgets, as well as providing a finished product that the client will utilize and enjoy for many years.  ADG guides clients to help them with decisions that will affect them initially and throughout the life of their project. ADG listens to its clients and works closely with them while coordinating the consulting team and the general contractor. ADG's ultimate goal is to give its clients a space that meets their needs and exceeds their vision.

ADG team members are professional and proactive. Their knowledge and experience allows them to offer clients innovative and economical ideas that are tailored to meet individual needs. ADG works efficiently and effectively while maintaining a personal connection with its clients.

ADG's design approach is client focused.  Team members interview key individuals to determine programming, functional, and aesthetic requirements.  ADG's goal is to design a project that reflects the client’s business approach, the overall culture, and addresses the image that the client would like the outside world to see.  ADG designs to its clients’ needs, not the designers' desires.

ADG prides itself on its ability to satisfy a wide range of clients.  The company has extensive experience in Building Standard design, where efficiency and cost effectiveness are critical, in addition to experience in high-end design for clients who are interested in custom solutions.  ADG works to create a work environment of the highest quality that meets all of the client’s design and economic parameters, regardless of the client’s budget.
