With a career spanning 25 years, Ginger is instrumental in expanding Corgan’s presence in the aviation industry, designing high profile interior architecture while developing design strategies to create efficient and effective airport operations, ultimately elevating the passenger experience. Truly a creative visionary, Ginger leads her design teams from the macro level of conceptualizing and schematic design phases to the programming, coordination, documentation, and construction phases. Ginger’s brilliance shines through in her innate ability to balance functionality with aesthetics to deliver terminals and luxurious hospitality-forward airport club lounges throughout North America and she has won international design competitions for airports including Shanghai Pudong (PVG) and O’Hara International Airports. “Airport design is about creating an experiential travel destination —immersing passengers in the local culture, traditions, and history through placemaking, hospitality, and entertainment,” says Ginger. Her most notable club clients include Airport Dimensions, Delta Sky Club, American Airlines Admiral Clubs, American Express Centurion Lounges, and most recently, a national rollout for twelve premier Chase Sapphire Lounges for JP Morgan Chase.
