Great lighting is never just about light. ✨

It’s about the materials, the craftsmanship, the finish, the scale — and how every detail works together to transform a space.

At ADG, we believe lighting should feel intentional, complement the architecture, and bring character to the entire design.

Because the right fixture doesn’t just belong in a space. It becomes part of it.

🔥 Architecture Forged in Steel
Most people see a gate.
We see a single forged detail repeated hundreds of times.
Before a single panel was assembled, full-scale mockups were reviewed, forged components were tested against the drawings, and every intersection was refined to achieve the rhythm, depth, and shadow the design demanded.
Beginning with hot-forged steel, each quatrefoil element was shaped, evaluated, and integrated into a larger architectural composition—one detail at a time.
What appears effortless in the finished gate is the result of countless decisions, traditional craftsmanship, and an unwavering commitment to the details.
Not fabricated. Forged.

When you know hanging out is what counts

To the Crusher.... this week we honor the late Cleo Baldon — architect, landscape pioneer, and furniture designer who passed at 87."

"I designed and fabricated this high-top table as a tribute. Cleo once told Gerald Olesker, 'space is space.' That’s how an interior designer could design landscapes. I’ve carried that for 25 years."

"She and Sid Galper built Galper-Baldon Associates in Venice. 3,000 pools. The California lap pool in 1970. The contour spa patent. Iron hardware, refurbished bungalows, one of the first solar homes in Malibu Colony."

"I’m a chair ju**ie. Gerald Olesker said it best: 'A pinnacle was when my wife and I rescued 3 Tara Chairs from the trash crusher with the original rawhide straps and cushions.' Today, that design is one of the most versatile and sought after on 1stDibs."

"Her company Terra became the only option besides Brown Jordan. Her designs live on. Space is space. Goodbye, Cleo."
