Chicago’s Leading Interior Design Company

Areté The Art of Design was born out of the success of Areté Renovators—our full-service design-build firm founded in Chicago in 2002. Initially rooted in the expert carpentry and craftsmanship of our founders, we quickly recognized the growing demand for specialized home and commercial design services. This realization led us to expand our offerings, focusing on the unique skills of our design team.

Today, our expert designers offer a unique interior design experience: We can provide custom architectural services to be executed by your choice of general contractor. Or, we can keep the entire process in-house, delivering seamless and comprehensive design-build services.

What Our Clients Are Saying

"My condo sold quickly and at ask, and I believe Areté's work helped the sale succeed. I would recommend them to anyone looking to renovate who wants to work with an experienced, professional team!"

Tim F.

Tampa, FL

"We had the privilege of working with the Arete design team on a design for our main floor powder room. The room is an odd shape needing a gut rehab. Ivana and Dulio listened to our concerns, our goals, and budget. The design they recommended is beautiful and meets all of our demands."

Chris D.

Tampa, FL

"The final project is stunningly beautiful, functional, and thoughtfully designed. Given that the master bathroom is a space we use every day, we could not be happier with the final result. We would unreservedly recommend Arete The Art of Design for your next remodel where you are looking for that little extra oomph."
