Attentive, Personal Service

At Architectural Design Associates, we never forget that “this is your project.” Your needs, goals and preferences will guide all our design solutions, throughout the entire design process. We take an interactive approach to the client relationship, featuring clear and continuous communication and respect for everyone on the project team. While we do bring years of architectural experience to the table, we do not bring preconceived ideas about what is right for your facility.

Our first priority is to get to know you and establish a strong, comfortable working relationship. We ask lots of questions, listen very carefully to your responses, and collectively establish goals and priorities for the project. Only then do we begin the work of creating design solutions. As the project continues, we keep the conversation going to discuss any changing needs and offer design alternatives. During the entire design and construction process, we will serve as your representative to contractors, city and state code officials, and other consultants.

The ease with which we work with our clients keeps them coming back. We take great pride in the fact that the majority of our projects come from repeat clients, including:

Strong, Creative Solutions

Once a client’s specific goals, time schedule and budget requirements are established, Architectural Design Associates begins the process of creating strong design solutions. Every project is led by one of our principals, either Dick Bergt or Jay Vallicott, giving you the advantage of decades of architectural experience with similar project types. Their leadership, combined with the talents of our entire staff, enables ADA to produce creative architectural designs that most effectively meet all client requirements.  

Architectural Design Associates believes quality is built on details. That’s why our building designs include sharp, aesthetically pleasing details that are also practical and cost-effective to build. This attention to detail continues in the drawings themselves, which are consistently of a high level of precision and accuracy. Contractors appreciate our detailed drawings because they allow jobs to flow more smoothly with fewer on-site problems and changes. Clients, too, appreciate the efficiency our commitment to detail provides.
