Chicago

Debra Weninger Design is a Chicago-based interior architecture and design practice. I work with homeowners to create spaces that reflect their lives rather than my style or a preconceived idea of the final outcome. We start with a conversation about how you live and the way you’d like your space to flow. We collaborate on design ideas. And when we’ve finalized the plan I set your project up for success through construction to make sure it gets done right the first time. What you end up with is a home that feels like you.

Independent since 2006, I started my studio after nine years as Director of Design at Holly Hunt. I have 20+ years of experience helping homeowners elevate their spaces.

Interior Architecture

Moving walls, vaulting a flat ceiling, opening up a house that was built to be compartmentalized, reworking a floor plan until the rooms work best. This is where most projects start and where the biggest differences are made.
