The new team members bring a wealth of knowledge to the firm, further strengthening Spectorgroup's ability to deliver thoughtful, research-based design strategies to its clients.

Joining the firm are Sefako Ketosugbo as Senior Designer, Olivia Holub as Senior Architect, and Sol Seong as Intermediate Designer. These new hires will play a significant role in driving the firm's continued success, leveraging their expertise and working together to connect people to environments through design.

"We are thrilled to welcome Sefako, Olivia and Sol to our team," says Scott Spector, Principal of Spectorgroup. "Each offers a unique set of skills and experience that will greatly contribute to the work we do at Spectorgroup, allowing us to create authentic spaces that improve the way people connect.”

Sefako has built thoughtful environments for some of the top organization’s in technology and entertainment,  translating a brand's ethos into physical space through design concepts and FF&E selection. As Senior Designer, Sefako will conceptualize creative solutions to design challenges and implement them from design into reality.

A skilled architect, Olivia has experience in all phases of the architectural process, from schematic design to construction administration, working on large-scale projects both locally and internationally. As Senior Architect, she will oversee the creation of construction documents and work closely with project managers to execute the client’s vision through to completion. 

As an interior designer, Sol has worked on various projects in New York and Seoul,  including residential condos, hotels, and corporate designs for major brands like Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein, and Ralph Lauren. As Intermediate Designer, Sol will conceptualize innovative solutions for design challenges and provide drafting support for senior designers and project managers. 

For more than 50 years, the New York-based firm has shaped the built environment for projects that intersect all markets, including commercial, workplace, financial, law, healthcare, and mixed-use for some of the top organizations in the world. The new hires will work alongside Spectorgroup's experienced team of architects, designers, and planners to deliver projects that exceed expectations.
