Karen TenEyck (born 1958) is an American scenic and graphic designer who has worked in theatre, opera, film, and TV. She grew up in Wilmington, Delaware, studied advertising and graphic design at Kutztown University in Pennsylvania, and earned a degree from the Yale School of Drama in 1991. After early work in advertising, she moved to New York City and, by 2013, was living in California.

TenEyck spent about 11 years designing theatre sets. Her style is usually simple and clear, though some productions are more intricate, such as Richard Greenberg’s adaptation of Triumph of Love. She also developed digital projection design techniques with the Mabou Mines company, and used them for Julius Caesar at the Shakespeare Festival LA, earning awards for digital/graphic work.

After theatre, she did graphic work for Anger Management and has since worked on more than 30 films. Her later projects include graphics and branding for Water for Elephants, Captain America: The First Avenger, and Lincoln.
