A.GRUPPO Architects - Dallas

My wife and I hired A. Gruppo Architects based on viewing their creative past projects. We could never be happier with the decision. We are a little over mid-way into our remodel/addition and the entire process has been smooth. We' re working more closely with Andrew Nance,AIA, one of the partners, and he has kept us informed at every step. He has been extremely dilgent in keeping within our budget and making creative suggestions for ideas. From our first meeting to discuss our plan, to the building of a detailed model, to making sure we understood the contract, to explaining what the workers were doing on site, to materials selections, to making sure that trees were not damaged, we are very pleased and look forward to the finishes, cabinet details, trim and finally move-in. Andrew and Thad have had excellent experience and are meeting deadlines and are a pleasure to work with. We are looking forward to posting a photo of the finished design soon.

AGruppo renovated a 1958 urban townhome in the Oak Lawn area of Dallas. Total sq footage was 1,150. The project (3615 Gillespie F) turned out flawless. The overall project went smoothly and the design ideas and execution made the project. AGruppo (Thad Reeves) has confidence in his decisions and ideas and understands what it takes to get things built right the first time. I will work with AGruppo again and again. They have great design minds but are also willing to roll up their sleeves to make it right. Terry Kafka Owner

We hired Agruppo to design this addition for our home. They listened, engaged us in dialogue and pushed us to imagine the best design and usage for our needs. We could not be happier with the entire process and, of course, the final product- our amazing sleeping house! We came in with ideas and Andrew and Thad added their magic and turned our dreams into a fantastic reality. Agruppo designed the entire project and also oversaw the construction phase. What we appreciated most was their honesty and attention to detail. Just as impressive was Andrew's directness during construction when things (as is the norm during construction) didn't always go as planned and the fact that he kept us within our budget. We would recommend Andrew and Thad to any family expecting a first class design plan from a firm who is honest, loyal and ready and able to put in the hard work and time needed to complete a project that exceeds expectations. -Celina & Bernhard Bley

I hired Thad and his amazing team after meeting with 3 other architects that a) didn't seem too interested in the project or b) wanted to implement all of their ideas and not take into account any of my preferences. Throughout the entire process, I could not have asked for a more patient, attentive, communicative, detail oriented, and respectful team. I came in with a style and direction of my own and they gladly included me in every step of the design and materials selection. The end result is a home that I LOVE. Along the many hurdles (2 not so great contractors, and a seemingly non-existent timetable)....Thad went above and beyond and provided a level of service that transcended from that of a business transaction to one of a friendship. I would have been lost, taken advantage of, and broke if it was not for these guys. Thad's attention to detail, project management skills, record keeping, and commitment to seeing the project through produced a product and an experience that I could not be happier with. I look forward to working with him again in the future on future projects. I cannot say enough praise for A.Gruppo. Highly recommend! -Erik Bohdan
