CHICAGO - KTGY, an award-winning design firm focused on architecture, interior design, branded environments and urban design, announced today that Craig Pryde, principal in the firm's Chicago office, will retire from his role on June 5, 2026, after 11 years with KTGY, which acquired architecture firm PPK in 2015, where Craig served as an owner and principal.

Throughout his distinguished career, Craig has been dedicated to design excellence, delivering world-class developments including multifamily residential communities, as well as mixed-use and retail environments across the United States that have transformed people's experiences. During his tenure with KTGY, Craig was instrumental in the establishment and growth of the Chicago office, leading teams and partnering with clients to create communities that left a lasting imprint across the region.

Notable KTGY Communities designed under Craig's leadership include:

- Portico and Atavia - Scottsdale, Arizona

- Greendale Development - Greendale, Wisconsin

"Craig's depth of expertise and commitment to client partnerships have been invaluable in broadening KTGY's national presence and growth," said KTGY Principal Chris Texter. "As a people-centric leader, Craig fostered a creative and supportive culture that encouraged the growth of the next generation of architects, enabling KTGY Chicago to position itself for this moment."

Craig has been working alongside KTGY principal Sam Luckino over the last two years as they prepared for this transition. For the last decade, Craig has made it his priority to forge deep connections with his team and his clients. This legacy will live on within the studio and the firm as the next generation of leaders rise.
