Planning a commercial space, a custom home, or a residential development in Austin? Architect Builder Group PLLC (AB Group) provides architectural design, interior design, engineering coordination, and permitting support. We work with homeowners, business owners, and developers to turn project goals and property information into a clear design scope.
Residential Architecture
Our residential work includes custom homes, additions, and renovations. We develop layouts and architectural designs around your goals, the property’s conditions, your budget, and how you want to use the space.
Multifamily and Mixed-Use Design
For townhomes, multifamily housing, and mixed-use projects, we help developers explore building layouts, circulation, and the relationship between the proposed building and its site.
Interior Design
AB Group also provides commercial and residential interior design, including space planning, material direction, and finish concepts. Interior decisions can be coordinated with the architectural design as part of the agreed project scope.
Industrial and Warehouse Design
AB Group supports warehouse, logistics, storage, light industrial, and flex commercial projects. We consider circulation, loading, daily operations, code requirements, and future flexibility.
Permitting Support
We prepare and coordinate architectural drawings and design information for permit submission and review. For Austin projects, we also help address design-related review comments within the agreed scope.
Coordinated Engineering Support
AB Group coordinates with appropriately licensed professionals for structural, civil, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineering when required by the project and included in its scope.
From Early Planning to Permit Documents
A project often starts with a practical question: will the property or existing space support what you want to build? AB Group can review available property information and develop an architectural approach before moving into design development and construction documents.
Depending on the project, we coordinate with appropriately licensed engineering professionals and prepare architectural information for permit review. Required reviews vary by property and scope; Austin Development Services addresses zoning, site plans, and building permits through separate processes.
