Our Story
Over a decade chasing what
architectural decorative
glass can be.
ADG – Architectural Decorative Glass is an independent design studio built on a single conviction: that decorative glass belongs in the conversation as a custom hard-surface material, not parked at the edge of a project as an afterthought. We're a young company with a long runway behind us. Our founder got into decorative glass in 2013 and has spent the past decade-plus chasing one idea of what it could be and ADG is where it finally comes together, with the relationships, products, and point of view to deliver it.
Why ADG Exists
The studio the design world has been missing.
There's no shortage of brilliant interior designers and architects. What's been missing is an independent studio devoted entirely to architectural decorative glass, a partner who already knows the material, the methods, and the manufacturers. Until now, turning a custom glass idea into reality meant knowing exactly what you wanted and finding a printer or fabricator willing to make it. We've done that legwork. We have the manufacturing relationships to get it made, the Creative Resins products to make it genuinely one-of-a-kind, and a clear perspective on what this material really is: a custom-designed hard surface which can be used with full transparency, as completely opaque glass wall covering, or anything in between. Whatever the vision, we can get it made.
From the Founder
Why not take a chance on us?
I was introduced to decorative glass in 2013, and I've spent a lot of time focused on one idea of what it's full potential really is. For a long time I was waiting for someone who saw it the way I do and I have now found that in Creative Resins. It's their outstanding products that make what we present as possible actually possible. With ADG, Creative Resins, and our skilled manufacturing partners, I can finally bring this to the people who make design decisions in a way they've never been approached before. It's new. It's beautiful. It's attainable. Even more important, it's customizable, so a designer can put their own aesthetic stamp on it all while opening a whole new revenue stream for fabricators.
So why not take a chance on someone who's put this much thought and work into conceptualizing it? You won't find this by shopping around, it doesn't exist anywhere else. ADG is your guide into a world most of the design community hasn't fully discovered yet, and we'll walk you through every step. It's one thing to look at a finished thing and say "I already know that." It takes time and talent to make something genuinely complex look easy and that's the work we've taken on, so you don't have to.

Just the Beginning
Decorative glass is about to take flight.
That same belief is built into the ADG Designer and Visualizer: pick the glass, the pattern, the color, and the finish, render it into your room, price it, and share it – no meeting or call or waiting required. These tools are in their infancy, and they'll only get better. As more homeowners, designers, architects, and builders use them, trading ideas, collaborating on projects, and pushing what's possible – decorative glass will finally move into the mainstream of great design. We'd like you to be part of that journey with us.
