Understanding of the client's vision is critical to the success of each project. As such, ADG places this understanding as priority one, and tailors services to meet these expectations.

Architects Design Group considers our relationship with each owner a prime commitment toward the team concept. ADG also realizes that client needs are diverse and often require very specific expertise. In those special markets, ADG has developed long-standing relationships with consulting professionals, each expert in their fields. These professionals have a long history of interacting with us and our clients as partners, and bring a good deal of specialized knowledge to the table.

Services and delivery methodology are often as unique as the needs of our clients and their projects. Services are tailored to actual design needs and expected delivery method. Delivery methods may include design-bid-build, construction management associations, design-build, development-lease or construction.

Architects Design Group has been named recipient of numerous awards, including awards from the American Institute of Architects for Design Excellence including the Plant Growth Center at M.S.U., the Thompson House, the Gilmore House and the new campus of Flathead Valley Community College. In addition ADG has received a Community Art Award for the design of the Whitefish Credit Union and a Concrete Excellence Award for the use of concrete in the Missoula County Detention Facility. We are especially proud that the Missoula County Detention Facility will be featured in "Justice Review Magazine".

Projects are usually lead directly by a principal of Architects Design Group, through both design and construction phase services. We believe this is unique to our profession. This continuity of relationships strengthens our philosophy of understanding your vision, building a successful team, and providing an appropriate service approach. These issues in combination with sensitive design and technical expertise, highly increase the probability the project will be a winner from your point of view, as well as ours.
