Nunzio Marc DeSantis Architects (NMDA) is a firm of designers, innovators and leaders solely focused on the DESIGN OF HOSPITALITY ENVIRONMENTS and the way people engage and experience them. NMDA believes these experiences can and should be enriched by the built environments in which they take place and use architectural design to create meaningful hotels and resorts around the world.

Nunzio’s career started at HKS 36 years ago where he created the HKS Hospitality Group. Nunzio has 36 years of experience and knowledge in the design and delivery of hospitality related structures as large as 4,000 guestrooms and 12 million square feet to small boutique resort of less than 30 rooms.

After leaving HKS, Nunzio, with his partner and son, established NMDA in 2017 as a firm solely dedicated to the design of hotels, resorts, convention center hotels, retreats along with all other hospitality related structures. The firm is equally committed to enrich the client experience by using its hospitality expertise to build long lasting relationships with recognizable brand developers and owners.
