TRIBUNE TOWER RESIDENCES

The iconic Tribune Tower, the longtime home of the Chicago Tribune, is a symbol of Chicago’s history—and an architectural masterwork on the Magnificent Mile. In the 1920s, the building was sculpted upon the ambitious plans of an international design competition winner, resulting in the Neo-Gothic masterpiece. Nearly one hundred years later, The Gettys Group had the honour of helping to transform the building to its new purpose: a collection of distinct, elegantly contemporary luxury residences, with 56 distinct floor plans—ranging from $900,000 to over $7 million in value.

COURTYARD ERIE BAYFRONT

It’s cooler by the lake—that’s especially true now, with the opening of the Courtyard Erie Bayfront Hotel, a new Marriott property on the coast of Lake Erie.

Collaborating closely with the Courtyard by Marriott brand team, The Gettys Group ONE designed the guestrooms, the lobby inclusive of a feature bar, along with the front desk pods and media walls that are signatures of the Courtyard brand.

TEMPO BY HILTON

The Gettys Group Interiors team played an integral part in the development of interior brand standards for the latest brand to join the Hilton Hotels & Resorts portfolio.

HAMPTON INN CHICAGO DOWNTOWN MOTOR CLUB

The Gettys Group ONE was honoured to be a part of the renovation of one of Chicago’s finest Art Deco skyscrapers—a historical landmark that was originally designed to house the Chicago Motor Club. Since the building’s completion in 1928, the interior and exterior of this landmark have been changed very little. Restorers have worked to keep as many original details as possible, including the grand lobby’s 33-by-29 foot mural of a map of the United States, featuring the most popular driving destinations in the country at the time of its creation. The Gettys Group ONE team sought to enhance the building’s Art Deco features, staying true to the spirit of the era, while introducing clean, contemporary elements that connect with the Hampton Inn guest.

Upon entering the lobby, guests are met by a colourful mural of the Chicago skyline. Other design moments of this Chicago hotel renovation include local artwork throughout the public areas and a muted colour palette that is inspired by the area’s naval history.
