In 2010, Gal and Tania Adir, aged 23 and 24, respectively, began renovating high-value apartments in central London.
Today, they are known as The Adir Group and have about £50m in development under way .
But more than just a developer, the group has grown to become “the parent company of a quickly expanding collection of complementary brands bound together by a desire to enhance people’s lifestyle through quality and beauty.”
In addition to G&T (their residential development arm), they also founded Net.Works (a co-working space) and Nuper (a co-op living scheme). This last focus isn’t up on their website yet, but I read about it on Michael Mortensen’s blog . The goal of Nuper is to create affordable living solutions for young talent in London.
I wanted to profile The Adir Group because I think it’s incredible how young they were when they got started (I was just starting graduate school at 23) and because I like their approach of creating a collection of complementary companies.
I am excited to see where the next generation of developers (myself included) take this business. Already we are seeing some new approaches emerge.
