About Us

Who we are

Our Story .

Architecture is where art & science merge.

As a result, our design philosophy is one of exploring and evaluating the variables that are part of every project, combining them to ultimately arrive at a unique and appropriate solution.

GSR Andrade Architects is a Dallas-based, Hispanic-owned architectural firm founded in 2001 by a group of passionate, driven individuals. We provide responsive, innovative architectural services to the local community and beyond. Our mission is to re-imagine spaces that are functional yet inspiring, and we stop at nothing to find creative solutions to each puzzle. GSR Andrade believes every person deserves to be reflected and known by their surroundings, and our approach always begins with humanity.

We are a client-focused firm, committed to building and maintaining relationships with our clients, our employees, our consultants, and the community. It is our pledge to deliver quality work and workmanship, implement the best and most appropriate technologies available, and incorporate sustainable planning into our work.

We are certified as a Minority Business Entity by the North Central Texas Regional Certification Agency, South Central Texas Regional Certification Agency, DFW National Minority Supplier Development Council, and the State of Texas as a Historically Underutilized Business.

Excellent Design

Everything is designed. Few things are designed well. We take pride in our meticulous search for solutions to better the built environment.

Carefully Planned

We create spaces for people, which is both instinctive and thought-provoking. It requires a thorough plan and anticipation of obstacles. That’s what we do best.

Smartly Executed

From concept to reality, we know the best course of action for our projects. We work with high-quality contractors and consultants to ensure our design comes to life.
