Key West & the Florida Keys
Decorative glass for the island's edge.
Architectural decorative glass for the waterfront homes, boutique resorts, historic conch houses, and coastal commercial spaces that define the Florida Keys — salt-resistant finishes, luminous color, textured mirror, and printed artwork built for humidity, UV exposure, and the region's unmistakable island aesthetic.
Why the Keys
A design culture shaped by salt air, sunlight, and a sense of place.
The Keys are unlike any other region in Florida — a chain of islands where historic conch architecture, modern coastal homes, eco-driven design, and resort environments all coexist. From Key West and Stock Island to Marathon, Islamorada, and Key Largo, the region blends:
- Historic conch cottages and Caribbean-influenced homes
- Waterfront modernism with open-air floorplans
- Boutique hotels and luxury resorts
- Marine-grade commercial interiors
- Outdoor kitchens, bars, and entertainment spaces
Designers here work with sunlight, water, and weather — and they need materials that can survive salt, humidity, and UV exposure without losing beauty. Decorative glass is one of the few surfaces that thrives in this environment.
What's possible
What decorative glass makes possible in a Keys interior.
The Keys build differently — open-air living, indoor-outdoor transitions, resort-grade durability, and a design language that blends Caribbean color with coastal minimalism. Decorative glass becomes a performance surface, a design statement, and a weather-resistant upgrade. Here's what that unlocks across the islands:
In a Key West conch home or historic renovation — a textured mirror feature wall that respects historic character; window inserts that add privacy without blocking breezes; printed partitions that modernize without overpowering original architecture.
In Islamorada and Marathon waterfront homes — a salt-resistant outdoor wet-bar backsplash; mirrored shower walls that brighten compact baths; sliding glass doors with subtle gradients; wine room enclosures that become sculptural.
In Key Largo and Upper Keys modern builds — a full powder-room feature wall in seamless printed decorative glass — a dramatic large-scale tropical palm pattern silk-screened onto a warm champagne-silvered base — framed by vertical fluted clear glass panels and crystal-and-brass pendant sconces, above a honed marble pedestal sink with brushed brass fixtures; glass stair railings that keep ocean views uninterrupted; large mural walls printed with custom artwork or coastal imagery.
In boutique resorts and hospitality spaces — digital printed corridor glass, branded signage, bar backs, and spa-grade surfaces that withstand humidity, sunscreen, cleaning cycles, and guest traffic.
In outdoor and semi-outdoor environments — UV-stable, marine-grade glass for patios, lanais, outdoor kitchens, pool bars, and cabanas — surfaces that won't corrode, fade, or peel.
If it's a wall, a partition, a door, a backsplash, a railing, a shower or an idea, ADG can help you to make it with glass.

Durability & code
Built for salt air, humidity, UV exposure, and open-air living.
The Keys are one of the harshest environments in the country for materials. Salt air corrodes metal. Humidity destroys finishes. UV exposure fades color. ADG's decorative glass systems are engineered for exactly this:
- UV-stable
- Low-VOC
- Marine-grade durability
- Compatible with laminated and impact-rated assemblies when required
Bring us the architect's spec — we'll build the decorative glass to it.
