ABOUT ME

Architectural designer and marketer Catherine (Victoria University of Wellington, Honours, Architecture) brings a unique perspective to her work. Her architectural background, including international experience in Lausanne, Switzerland, informs her practice as a home stylist and interior designer. A subsequent postgraduate degree in Creative and Strategic Marketing (University of Geneva) further honed her creative skills.

This blend of design and marketing expertise allows Catherine to consult on a wide range of creative projects, from large-scale architectural endeavours to intimate interior design and creative marketing initiatives.

  • "I was hesitant to hire an interior designer at first, but working with Catherine was one of the best decisions I've made for my home. She is incredibly talented and has an eye for detail that's second to none."
