Meet Amy

Kartheiser

founder & Principal designer

ounder and Principal Designer Amy Kartheiser is more than a design expert—she’s  a  tastemaker,  voracious  reader,  philanthropist,  jet-set traveler, and

F

traveler, and trusted partner to top architects, builders, and luxury realtors. Her globally influenced interiors have earned recognition in The Wall Street Journal, ELLE Decor, and Veranda. 

Amy’s work is always client-specific, site-driven, and architecturally influenced, combining decades of experience with an unshakable devotion to craftsmanship for each project. 

When Amy’s not exploring Chicago’s newest tasting menu or finishing her fourth book of the month, she’s likely training for her next endurance challenge, having already summited Mt. Kilimanjaro. A devoted mother of two young adult children and a passionate global traveler (50+ countries and counting), Amy brings a rare life perspective to every room she enters.

Her weekends are often spent with her family, planning their next travel adventure, or leading Under the Same Sky, the philanthropy she founded in memory of her brother.

A natural connector and collector of beauty, Amy’s just as at home in a remote mountain village as she is in a candlelit corner booth downtown.
