Designing spaces that inspire connection: The story of AM design group

For AM Design Group, exceptional design begins with a conversation, one that uncovers the essence of a place and the people who bring it to life. Founded by husband-and-wife team Adrian Karapici, Principal Architect, and Migena Gace, Principal Interior Designer, the firm was built on a simple yet profound belief: great architecture and interiors should not only please the eye, but also tell a story, foster connection, and endure the test of time.

Based in Naples, Florida, AM Design Group has become a trusted name in the design of private clubs and gated communities across the Southeast and beyond. Their work redefines what it means to belong, blending luxury and livability in a way that feels both effortless and intentional.

Where Creativity Meets Purpose

Whether it’s a lively restaurant that blurs the line between indoors and outdoors or a serene card room that invites camaraderie, each space is designed to feel both timeless and alive. “We’re not just designing buildings,” Adrian explains….
