Design firm AvroKO has used eclectic furnishings, abstract artworks and mismatched rugs to make Chief's private members' club in Chicago feel more like a home.
Located in the Fulton Market district, the Chicago clubhouse is one of three Chief locations across the US that offer support and networking opportunities for women in executive positions.

AvroKO was brought on board to design the interiors for the club, having already helped in the location scouting process for Chief's New York and Los Angeles outposts.
The design firm wanted the new Chicago branch to have a distinctly cosy, residential feel, much like the company's loft-like New York clubhouse with its expansive windows and airy open-plan rooms. Private phonecall booths are painted bright orange

Otherwise, the room accommodates clusters of seating with a mix of contemporary and vintage furnishings from sapphire-blue sofas to tufted orange stools. Black leather benches are wrapped around the exposed timber structural columns.
