Chad Marchese has been promoted to creative managing director, hospitality.
Marchese brought his creative experience to the Hospitality studio when he moved from New York in 2006. He quickly became the go-to guy for bigger signage projects and has been deeply involved in international Hampton and Hilton prototypes, and he is also the driving force for the Brewery Heritage trail graphics.
