We hired Adam to create the floor plans/design for our forever home. He asked great questions and ensured he understood our aesthetic before drawing the initial plans. The plans were far more impressive than we could have imagined; our house has a weird, complicated floor plan. Thus, the details and creativity weren't anything we could have anticipated. With this eye for detail, he recommended an excellent engineer who he ensured also presented fully detailed updates to the plans. As we are looking for a contractor, I showed the plans to one of the most respected and lauded contractors in Long Beach. He said the plans were one of the best, most thorough sets he's seen in a very long time. He confirmed our thoughts big time! I would (and will) recommend RAD Designs to anyone who asks.

Being in the construction business for 24 years, It is refreshing to work with a Designer that understands and creates a detailed design and set of plans that is comprehensible to the Customer and the Contractor. Adam is always willing to take that extra step to keep a Customer happy and the project moving forward.

Adam (RAD Designs) is a very competent and gifted designer. His drawings and renderings are always striking, detailed and complete. He is a great asset in that he is always dependable, timely and accommodating. Adam's designs always adhere to our budget guidelines and his understanding of the trades and codes informs his work, which is a great benefit as well. Highly recommended!

I had the pleasure of working with Adam on a complex remodel of a 1950's era home. As the interior designer for the project, my job was to make sure the interior and exterior improvements looked cohesive. I had some general 3D concepts of what I wanted the home to look like. It involved adding multiple exterior structures to the home to improve the curb appeal. I needed a highly skilled architect to be able to bring it to life and to design proportions that would actually work with the roof line of the home. Adam was responsive, fast and accurate, and he is a pleasure to work with. His knowledge of construction helped him be able to produce plan sets that worked for the project and when unexpected challenges arose in the field, he was able to work with the contractor to resolve them quickly. The results were fantastic and the home looks beautiful and we stayed within our budget. Thank you Adam!

RAD Designs (Adam) is amazingly talented and a pleasure to work with. I was given his contact info from a construction company but knew nothing about him or his work. I hired him because when interviewing different companies to design my remodel, Adam was the only person that I felt was really listening to my expectations. He is honest, understanding, hardworking, prompt, and very talented. He turned my vision into a reality and exceeded every expectation. He helped walk me through the process and always weighed the pros and cons of each decision. He is a rare honest professional in his field. Thank you Adam.

Adam has easily been the best part about our remodel project, and I only wish that he was the first person I contacted instead of starting with an interior designer like I did. He's super easy to talk to, he's got excellent design sense, he's very detail oriented and thorough, and he's ultra quick in getting back to you should you have any questions along the way. Oh, and he's funny, too!

Adam is a true professional and he's passionate about his trade. I was planning to build a container home in Riverside County. I found Adam by doing a google search for container homes. I hired him to do a site plan and consult me through the process. Unfortunately, the project fell apart due to excessive grading costs. Adam's advice was sound and helped me save a ton of money. I highly recommend him!

I had another Architect get too busy and walk away from my job last minute. I found Adam Dorn here on this site and he was immediately willing to take-on my project. He was great to work with from start to finish, with his accessibility (email and cell) being a major plus. Adam added value at each step of the process via his design acumen, knowledge of the permit process, and great partnership with top-notch structural engineers. I am very happy I found Adam and won't hesitate to use or refer him going forward. Don't hesitate to hire him, as you will be very satisfied with his work and communication.

I am a general contractor and have been working with Adam for over a year now on several projects. He is very knowledgeable in design and construction. His plans are very comprehensive and creative. He is very easy to work with and responsive to your needs. I appreciate working with him and so do my clients. I highly recommend Adam for all residential and commercial improvements, interior and exterior, small and large projects.

Adam provided remodel plans for a new front entry, window replacements, kitchen makeover and a new master bath. He was very easy to work with and took care to listen to the customer and as a result I ended up with a remodel that was totally functional with excellent aesthetics. He worked the permit approval process with the County Planning Department which was a big help.

Adam Dorn team worked with our designer to modify an existing living space creating an additional small office room and additional full bathroom as well as suggesting and designing an inside laundry room. The design was executed with our wishes to keep the design simple and consistent with the 50's home style and yet upgrading to modern conveniences . He created a floor plan flow that uses every bit of the small house to its advantage. We were very limited by the lot size and he was able to create plans that utilized the maximum square footage but kept the single level home.

As an interior designer with a specialty in construction design, Adam is a great asset in helping me transform my vision into plan form. He assembles the entire team, communicates effectively with the client and works to secure the building permits so that I can do my job of creating beautiful spaces. His clear detailed drawings, 3D renderings and in depth knowledge of building always help me to get the client to understand what I want to do and he is invaluable to what I do as a designer.”
