CHICAGO, Ill. – KTGY, a Great Places to Work certified design firm focused on architecture, branding, interiors and planning, expands their high rise expertise with the hiring of Sam Luckino as part of the firm’s strategic growth plans. He will partner with Craig Pryde, principal, to lead the studio and grow the firm’s team of high rise designers in Chicago.
Sam brings more than two decades of experience in shaping the built environment to his new role in KTGY’s Chicago architecture studio. After spending 13 years at Arquitectonica, where he served as principal and director of the firm’s New York office, he relocated to Chicago in 2018 with an initiative to expand Goettsch Partners’ domestic portfolio into urban multifamily high rise markets across the country.
As principal at KTGY, Sam brings the highest caliber design and management practices to each new development and guides the team in developing innovative, design-driven solutions that help clients achieve their goals while elevating the role of built spaces in people’s lives.
“We are excited to have Sam on board. Throughout his career, he has shown a dedication to collaborating with clients to shape skylines,” says CEO, Tricia Esser. “Leaning on Sam’s experience and KTGY’s national presence gives us the opportunity to continue leveraging our diverse specialties and local expertise to make a positive impact on urban environments in the Midwest and beyond.”
Sam is a member of the American Institute of Architects, NCARB Certified, is a LEED Accredited Professional, and a member of the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, where he previously served as the City Representative for New York. Sam’s design leadership is reflected in projects across the globe, with his most recent notable works, Coppia in Chicago’s West Loop and Alcove in downtown Nashville, completed during his time at his previous firm.
“I am really excited to build on the incredible history and expertise of KTGY and to be a part of shaping the future of the Chicago studio,” says Sam. “The collaborative energy of the company is truly refreshing, and I look forward to seeing what we can accomplish together.”
