KTGY Simeone Deary Design Group

KTGY Simeone Deary Design Group was established in 2021 when Simeone Deary Design Group joined forces with national architecture and planning firm KTGY. Originally founded by Lisa Simeone and Gina Deary in 2002, this award-winning interior design studio has a passion for creating boundary-pushing designs that evoke emotion, forge connections, and are as experiential as they are functional. Chicago-based but globally focused, KTGY Simeone Deary Design Group combines worldwide perspectives with its Midwestern values to bring to life spaces and experiences brimming with both possibility and purpose. From conceptual design and interior architecture to graphics and branding, KTGY Simeone Deary Design Group's involvement in creating a unique atmosphere — working in tandem with KTGY's numerous architectural studios — goes well beyond design aesthetics as the team defines what it means to "truly be somewhere." Approaching each interior through the lens of possibility and purpose, this studio creates transformative and highly personalized journeys that shape the guest experience. Since its inception, KTGY Simeone Deary Design Group has amassed a portfolio of hotels and high-end projects including new construction, adaptive reuse, renovation and conversion for a variety of industries from hospitality, restaurants and entertainment venues to spas and residential environments throughout the United States and abroad.
