Design Philosophy

Architects Design Group has had the opportunity to be involved in the programming, master planning, and design of public safety and municipal facilities throughout the United States. As a result, we pride ourselves on our team's creativity through collaboration with our clients and local partners. With that same concept in mind, on each project we search for design excellence and we challenge ourselves, each other, and our clients to reach new achievements in civic and public safety design. Therefore, our diverse team of experts is committed to the science of building technology, creative problem solving, and the art of architecture.

Above all, our team understands the unique requirements of public safety and municipal facilities, the necessary components to ensure safe and efficient daily operations, and how to incorporate these components into the facility to provide long-term value to the community. Additionally, natural day lighting, solar shading, and energy efficient design strategies are at the foundation of our philosophy. As national experts in public safety design, Architects Design Group promotes the principles of authentic, contemporary architecture and directs its practice to achieve the highest standards of design quality. Most importantly, we are committed to helping our clients reach their project goals.

Additionally, their willingness to meet with officials, community members, and police department staff in order to ensure the overall design and quality was vital in gaining support and authorization for this project.
