studio | line design architecture, dallas
line design is a principal-led architecture firm founded in dallas by adam jones and taylor cell. we approach every project as stewards of place, of history, and of the communities we build within. our team works across architecture, interior design, urban design, and strategic planning, with deep expertise in historic preservation, adaptive reuse, hospitality, and mixed-use development. we are small by design. every project is led by a founding principal from concept through completion, which means our clients work directly with the people making the decisions that shape their building. it's a model that lets us move quickly, hold a higher design standard, and stay accountable to the work in a way larger firms structurally cannot. rooted in dallas and active across texas, we partner with developers, hospitality operators, and institutions on projects where design quality, financial feasibility, and historic and regulatory complexity all need to be solved at once. it's the work we love most, and the work we've built our practice around.

our mission
Design begins with a deep respect for people, place, and purpose.
crafting places that honor history and inspire the future, designing environments that resonate with the spirit of place, embracing timelessness and innovation to elevate the human experience and enrich communities
This ethos fuels every move we make. Architecture is more than structures. It's about experiences, connection, and lasting impact.
innovation
At the crossroads of history and innovation lies our firm, a creative collective dedicated to designing spaces that honor the past while inspiring the future, guided by our motto,
innovate the past, shape the future
We approach every project with respect for what has come before and ambition to reimagine.
power of place
We believe in the power of place. historic buildings and neighborhoods hold narratives that echo through time.
We are stewards of these stories. Through our commitment to legacy and preservation, we breathe new life into spaces without erasing their origins.
We explore the craftsmanship, materials, and culture that define these places, weaving them into designs that honor their integrity, tranforming them for relevance today and tomorrow.
