HOUSTON, TX — Abel Design Group Principal Ken Harry began the transition from the role of Abel Design Group Principal to Advisor and Consultant. Moving forward, Harry will strategically serve select Abel Design Group clients and pursue other interests. A practicing Architect for 48 years, Harry spent 43 years as Founder and President of Ken R. Harry and Associates, followed by five years as a Principal at Abel Design Group. Ken R. Harry Associates was acquired by Abel Design Group in 2015.
“Ken Harry is the gold standard of architects in the Houston area and beyond. Abel Design Group was fortunate enough to learn from him, grow with him, and even teach him a couple things over the half decade he spent with us. We are so proud to have called him a mentor and our teammate,” said Jeffrey Abel, Abel Design Group Managing Principal. “We look forward to our continued collaboration in Ken’s new role as Advisor and Consultant.”
In his tenure at Abel Design Group, Harry has led several notable projects for clients including Hines, First Service Credit Union, Chamberlain Hrdlicka, Brittmark Ventures, and WEDGE Group.
“I had the privilege of designing facilities for a wide diversity of discriminating clientele under the firm name of Ken R. Associates for over 40 years and subsequently five-plus additional years with Abel Design Group. I truly believe that being an Architect is a calling, and I feel honored to have been able to serve so many wonderful and trusting clients. In addition, I hold the highest regard and say thanks to the many dedicated craftsmen that made my job easy,” Harry said. “My agreement with Jeffrey was based on a three-year transition. However, I have enjoyed working at Abel Design Group so much that three years have turned into five and I will continue as a consultant. Thanks to Abel Design Group for allowing me the freedom to do what I love.”
