Envisioning a future where residential and hospitality design inform one another, award-winning residential architecture firm KTGY Architecture + Planning (KTGY) has acquired hospitality-focused interior design and branding firm Simeone Deary Design Group, creating a fully integrated architecture, branding, interiors and planning practice. Together, the firms have set their sights on a bold vision to reshape how people experience space. By integrating interior design and branding capabilities with planning and architectural design, projects can be approached holistically from the outside in and inside out, thus presenting the opportunity to create unique experiential environments that reflect the ever-changing ways in which people desire to use and experience space.
