Hi, I’m Kateryna—the designer behind Kate’s Design Therapy.
I create spaces that feel calm, grounded, and deeply personal. Spaces that are not only beautiful, but thoughtfully designed around the way you actually live.
MY APPROACH
I believe our surroundings influence how we feel and function every day.
When a home is cluttered, poorly organized, difficult to navigate, or simply no longer reflects the person living there, even ordinary routines can become frustrating. When the layout flows, things have a place, the light feels right, and the environment reflects who you are, home becomes somewhere you can truly recharge.
For me, design isn't simply decoration.
It is understanding the relationship between people, space, function, and feeling.
That is why every project begins with one simple question:
“How do you want this space to make you feel?”
From there, we look at how you live, what isn't working, what you already have, and what genuinely needs to change. Those answers guide the layout, colour, lighting, materials, furniture, organization, and details.
My work brings together:
◦ Interior design & space planning
◦ Colour, materials & furniture
◦ Functional organization
◦ Mindful living principles
◦ Renovation & restoration
◦ Custom design & technical development

Sometimes you need a fresh pair of eyes and a few thoughtful changes.
Sometimes you need a complete roadmap.
And sometimes you need to take the whole house apart and put it back together.
There is a service for each.

Restore & Renew Renovation Package™
Interior design and renovation planning with respect for what is already there.
This service is particularly suited to older and character homes, where renovation requires balancing contemporary living with the qualities that make the house worth preserving.
Rather than replacing everything, we first ask:
What should stay? What can be restored? And what genuinely needs to change?
