Peter Eric Arnell (born April 22, 1958) is an American designer and branding executive, author, photographer, and founder of Arnell Group. He is known for creating products, brands and campaigns for companies including Chrysler, PepsiCo., Reebok, Fontainebleau Resorts, Donna Karan and Unilever, and he has written extensively on architectural theory and art history.




Early life and education


Arnell was born in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn. His father, who changed the family name from Abraben to Arnell, was a mechanical engineer. His grandfather, a Russian immigrant, was a fishmonger; as a child, Arnell sometimes accompanied him to work at the Fulton Fish Market.
Arnell studied architecture at Brooklyn Technical High School. He graduated in 1976.




Career


Arnell started his career as an intern working for Michael Graves. There he met Ted Bickford, and the two collaborated on a series of books about artists and architects before forming Arnell-Bickford in the early 1980s.
Bergdorf Goodman fashion director Dawn Mello hired Arnell-Bickford to create ads for Bergdorf, and they later worked on in-store designs and promotions for Donna Karan's new clothing line. During his work for Donna Karan, Arnell created DKNY and its signature style, first with a black-and-white photograph of the Brooklyn Bridge, and later with DKNY's logo featuring the Statue of Liberty and the Manhattan skyline.
By 1985, the agency's income reached $4.4 million per year, with clients including Anne Klein, Bank of America, Chanel, Condé Nast, Consolidated Edison, Ray-Ban, Rockport and Tommy Hilfiger.
In 1993, Bickford left the company and Arnell renamed it Arnell Group.
Arnell partnered with architect Frank Gehry on projects such as the Barclays Center and the Sentosa resort and aquarium between 2006 and 2010.
In early 2000, Arnell sold a 55% stake in Arnell Group to Draft Worldwide, and the firm became AG Worldwide. Shortly after in 2001, Arnell bought back his shares from Draft and sold the entire firm to Omnicom Group (NYSE:OMC). In 2008, AG was hired to redesign the logo for Pepsi and Tropicana. For both companies, Arnell wanted to "evolve [it] to a more modern state" but the rebrand for Tropicana was scrapped after being poorly received by consumers.
He remained chairman and Chief Creative Officer until 2011, when he left Omnicom amidst disputes with the company which were then settled in 2012.
Arnell founded Intellectual Capital Investments (ICI) in New York City in 2011. In 2013, Arnell worked with former Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra to create ThaiWorks for SMEs (small and medium enterprises), artisans and OTOP's of Thailand. He has also worked with GNC, Digicel, Fontainebleau Resorts and Lowe's Home Improvement.
In 2014, Arnell's photography was showcased in Milk Gallery in New York City.
Arnell, in his role as chief brand and design officer for Fontainebleau Development, designed the animation for the Times Square Ball for New Years' celebrations of 2024. The 'bow tie' design Arnell used connected the New Years event with the 70th anniversary of the opening of the Fontainebleau Miami Beach and the inaugural opening of the Fontainebleau Las Vegas hotels.
He also was responsible for the architecture and design of the "Hall of Excellence," a museum housed in the Fontainebleau Las Vegas featuring sports memorabilia from the collections of Tom Brady and Jim Gray, which opened in early 2024.
