Benjamin Noriega-Ortiz
Principal Designer

Benjamin is recognized as one of the most stylish and influential of today's interior designers. The aesthetic range of his work travels from traditional to modern. His sensuous, glamorous, and ethereal work marries architecture, interior design, and decoration, so seamlessly, it produces dramatic interiors that are reductive and seductive.

He has completed his master's degree in Architecture at the University of Puerto Rico in 1982 and a master's degree in Architecture and Urban Design from Columbia University. He started his career at the world-renowned interior and product design studio of John F. Saladino, Inc., where he spent six of nine years as head interior designer.

Establishing his own firm in 1992, Benjamin has produced projects for such clients as rock star, Lenny Kravitz, best-selling Mexican author, Laura Esquivel, celebrity portrait photographer, Mark Seliger, media mogul, Michael Fuchs, and entertainment and media genius, Sean "Diddy" Combs. In recent years, he has started to focus on hotels. Morgans Hotel Group commissioned Benjamin with the remodeling of Mondrian Scottsdale, which opened in February 2007. With such success, he was asked to remodel the Mondrian Los Angeles, scheduled to be finished in Fall 2008, and Mondrian SoHo, scheduled to open in 2009. Throughout the years, he has highly developed his product design skills and has been collaborating with many companies as a featured designer. His first book, Emotional Rooms, The Sensual Interiors of Benjamin Noriega-Ortiz, was published by Simon and Schuster's Atria Books division in 2007.
