Janeen A. Harrell

Janeen has always enjoyed the arts and math and realized at a young age that architecture and interiors seemed the perfect marriage of her scientific and creative sides. Over the years, she has made it a priority to balance academia and creative expression. Janeen's work in the community seeks to encourage diversity and exposure within the design professions, as well as performance arts.

As both an architect and interior designer, Janeen approaches her work with a unique and thorough perspective. She is responsible for the design, management, and successful completion of a broad range of projects including: high profile corporate renovations in Chicago skyscrapers such as the Willis Tower, the Illinois Center, the Franklin Building, and the Hancock Building; residential projects ranging from affordable developments with the Chicago Housing Authority to high end single and multifamily homes and towers; classroom and student services buildings at HBCUs and community colleges; and hotels and cultural heritage museums.

Janeen has extensive experience in varied phases of projects and consistently delivers thoughtful, contextual, well-crafted design solutions to the built environment, while maintaining excellent client and consultant relationships.

Janeen is a native of Durham, North Carolina and has enjoyed living and practicing in Chicago, Illinois since 2007.
