FULL-SERVICE INTERIOR DESIGN

Your home should be an experience designed for you.

Kate Grussing Design is a boutique interior design studio creating personal, layered homes for people who are ready for a space that finally feels like them. We work with a select number of clients each year, and we bring our whole selves to every single one.

FULL-SERVICE INTERIOR DESIGN

The best part of a project shouldn't be the end result — it should be the whole journey.

We work with clients on new construction and whole-home remodels, handling every detail from first inspiration to final installation. You’ll enjoy the process so much, you’ll genuinely miss us when it’s complete (and we’ll miss you, too).

“COLLABORATIVE AND RESOURCEFUL”

"I've been fortunate to live in three wonderful homes transformed by Kate Grussing. Her work is stunningly creative. Each home is completely unique and painstakingly designed for the way our family functions in the space. 

Kate's process is collaborative and resourceful. She has an amazing eye for both quality and value, and always operates within our agreed upon investment. The spaces she creates are as comfortable and useful as they are vibrant and memorable."

WHAT MAKES YOUR EXPERIENCE DIFFERENT



We start by really listening.

Before we talk about finishes or furniture, we talk about your life. How do you actually use your living room? Where do you love to sit in the morning? How does your home need to work on a regular Tuesday versus a holiday weekend with twenty people in it?

Your life isn't static, and your home shouldn't be either. We always design with flexibility in mind. We think about your life now, and we always plan for what's coming.

The details make daily life better.

We’ve seen it time and time again: thoughtful design has a way of making daily life feel easier. It makes your mornings smoother, your evenings more restorative, and your home genuinely enjoyable to live in.

We pay close attention to the details that shape your daily experience. It may be storage that simplifies your routine, lighting that shifts the feeling of a room, and the kind of considered touches that make aging in a home feel graceful rather than limiting. You’ll discover details you might not even think to ask for, but that make all the difference once they're there.

A home that looks like no one else's.

We don't have a signature look, and we're not interested in creating one. Every project is approached as its own world — layered with textiles, vintage finds and fabrics, original artwork, made-to-measure pieces, and collected objects.

Some of the most meaningful design decisions involve the pieces you already own: a bed frame reimagined as a bench, an architectural remnant worked into the design, an emotional piece finally given exactly the right home.

We work with a small number of clients each year, and that choice is intentional. It's the only way to give each project — and each person — the full attention, care, love, and creativity they deserve.

This process is meant to be one of the best parts of your year, and we treat it that way.

Because we intentionally take on only a select number of projects each year, each one is approached with care, discretion, and full involvement.
