The Atlanta Decorative Arts Center (ADAC) is elated to announce the expansion of The Design Studios at ADAC, adding 17 designer and architect offices to the second floor, Southeast corner, of the 550,000-square-foot campus. The new suite of offices spans 12,500 square feet, totaling 50,000 square feet across more than 40 offices created specifically for designers and architects in ADAC and ADAC West. The dedication behind creating these unique spaces is a testament to ADAC’s innovation and forward-thinking as demand for smaller, unique office spaces and curated amenities at ADAC is at an all-time high.
The new suite of offices will live on the second floor near The Hungry Peach café and will include a plethora of natural light, shared conference rooms, unisex bathrooms, a break room with a kitchenette, and a common area to utilize. The estimated completion date for the Design Studios at ADAC is the first quarter of 2025.
“We are beyond thrilled to expand and add an additional suite of studios to our campus. The decision was easy, given the amount of demand for a studio and the interest of many designers in expanding their thumbprint,” said Katie Miner, ADAC General Manager. “This expansion is not just about providing an enhanced space, but also about enriching creativity, fostering collaboration, innovation, and sculpting the future of our environment here at ADAC.”
Previously home to 14 Design Studios that opened over time and throughout the center, ADAC welcomed a suite of 12 more dedicated Design Studios on the 5th Floor in 2015, making 26 campus wide. ADAC, and ADAC West has nearly doubled its available office space to offer designers and architects a highly convenient location in proximity to over 1,400 product lines across its 65 showrooms, common space including ADAC’s Designer’s Lounge and Presentation Room as well as two restaurants on-site, The Hungry Peach and KR Steakbar. With an office at ADAC, designers can live in a built-in ecosystem of product lines, showrooms, restaurants, event space, and more, creating a more convenient environment to source products, host clients, and work on day-to-day projects. Also, tenants have access to about 100 annual events, marketing communications across the Southeast and country, and media partnerships, collaborations, and publicity opportunities.
“The whole Tish Mills Interiors team is thrilled to relocate to the new Design Studios on the 2nd Floor. I love the convenience, inspiration, and overall support that our Studio at ADAC has provided us for more than 18 years,” added Tish Mills Kirk, proprietor of Tish Mills Interiors. “This new chapter and location will continue to allow my team to see the latest in design in our own backyard, allowing the whole building to feel like an extension of our office and team. Can’t wait to get moved in and settled.”
