Biography
Adam D. Tihany is widely regarded today as the world’s preeminent hospitality designer. His sophisticated, often groundbreaking, designs are the result, in part, of his unique global perspective. Upon graduating from the Politecnico di Milano, School of Architecture and Urban Planning, Tihany apprenticed in design firms throughout Europe. In 1976, he moved to New York City, assuming the role of design director for the firm Unigram. Two years later, Tihany established his own multidisciplinary studio that encompassed all aspects of design, offering clients a bespoke experience – from commercial and residential interiors to furniture, products, exhibitions, and graphics.
