Our Team

Kate Marengo
Founder, President and Designer

Kate founded Arranging Order (Interior Chicago's predecessor) in 2009. in 2015 Interior Chicago was rebranded as we shift focus from organizing to orderly design.

 She received her Masters of Arts Management from Columbia College Chicago in 2007, with an emphasis on visual arts.

Inspired by unique spaces that reflect one's personality, she feels most rewarded by helping her clients feel great about their space.  She also has a keen love affair with work by Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis Sullivan.

Kate lives in Chicago with her husband, daughter, dog, and two kitties.
