This year, Cuningham Group Architecture Inc. celebrates 50 years of architecture and interior design practice. The firm has focused significantly over the past 27 years on gaming and entertainment. Its world-class portfolio covers the spectrum from small, delicate spaces to complex, expansive projects that advance the art of entertainment design—including casinos, hotels, convention centers, restaurants, retail venues and support facilities completed for resort destinations throughout the U.S. and around the world.

The firm is known for a client-centered, collaborative approach they call “Every Building Tells a Story,” emphasizing one-of-a-kind solutions reflecting the vision of clients and the character of each property and site. This approach is especially prevalent in the contemporary designs created for Native American clients.

Successful tribal gaming projects evolve from a combination of culturally relevant design and a keen awareness of the central issues involved in the development of resort projects. Backed by this understanding, Cuningham Group is aligning its own Native-led design expertise with Full Circle Indigenous Planning LLC, a Native American-owned, research-based planning and visioning design firm.

Cuningham Group and Full Circle have created a long-term working relationship built on a shared goal of advancing the economic and cultural health of tribal communities through design and master planning. They have collaborated on numerous tribal gaming and master-plan projects that have helped communities create beautiful and functional facilities that are rich in culture as well as profitable and welcoming to guests. The planning skills of Full Circle dovetail with Cuningham Group’s full-service design offerings, and, as a team, their combined expertise brings a wealth of cultural knowledge, experience and innovation to projects.
