We have your back.

We've done this successfully for over 20 years and we have the highest percentage of projects developed in the industry.

In an industry where typically only 2 out of 10 projects designed get built, we get 7 out of 10 built.  This is because we provide a lot more than design.


Our Clients



What they say about us


  • ★★★★★

    “Cristina more than met our expectations for our limited space in our NYC Apt. at 1600 Broadway. She was able to accommodate our growing family within a defined & reasonable budget. We gave her our goals & objectives, while allowing her absolute design discretion. Her unique solutions maximized our spaces & many in the condominium consider it to be the most ingenious renovation to date. We continue to enjoy our apartment year after year. Her solutions have proven to be both timeless & flexible.”

    — Ruben Jordan, Owner of 1600 Broadway

  • ★★★★★

    “The AD&V Team created a thoughtful design & understood what we wanted to achieve with our project. They did an excellent job, we’re grateful for everything that they did!”

    — Richard Baron, Co-Founder & Chairman of McCormack Baron Salazar

  • ★★★★★

    “On the LEB III project located in St. Croix USVI, AD&V provided design development for the interior furnishings for the community center, management offices, pavilion, & outdoor community space. AD&V's design ideas were great. They were lively and fit in nicely with the modern island feel that we were seeking for this newly constructed affordable housing community. The scope wasn't large, but they brought the same kind of commitment & attention to the project as if it was a multi-million dollar effort. Cristina & Mariana were always accessible, attentive & professional. I look forward to working with them again on another project in the future.”

    — Sandra Seals, Project Management Senior Vice President of McCormack Baron Salazar
