Design concepts
Adams is known for a developing interior design concepts, with a focus on concepts which blend European standards of technological minimalist design, American principles of functionality, and qualities of Oriental culture, which he trademarked as FusionDesign. The concept of FusionDesign was implemented in 2000 as a commissioned project for a villa in Ubud, Bali, using natural materials such as basalt, lava stone, bamboo, cork flooring and stainless steel. FusionDesign focuses on open space concepts as well as hidden compartment and hideaway areas to increase both the actual and apparent size of the spaces used.

FusionDesign is a contemporary style built upon respect for nature, inspired by Asian and Pacific Rim cultures. After designing spaces in Guam, Bali and Saipan, Adams created and trademarked the concept.

Another design concept implemented by Adams has been labeled as the "kitchen within a kitchen" concept. This concept is not necessarily new, and was first implemented in the 1960s. The concept entails an 'entertainment kitchen' that faces the main living area, combined with a professional-style kitchen hidden behind closed doors for food preparation and cleanup. This concept is inspired by traditional Japanese kitchen design.

Other design concepts are used by Adams such as integrated fronts and hydraulic lift, kitchen island storage, in order to hide appliances and create a minimalist visual aesthetic while maintaining all the practical functionality of a high end, modern home.

Adams is currently developing his own real estate projects under the Troy Adams Brand.
