The Power of Collaboration at Catalyst Interiors: Bringing Vision to Life

Great design isn’t a solo endeavor — it’s the product of collective creativity, diverse expertise, and seamless collaboration. At Catalyst Interiors, we understand that the most impactful spaces are born from teamwork, where every voice is heard, and every idea is valued. It’s through this collaborative approach that we transform commercial environments into spaces that not only look stunning but also function effortlessly for their users.

Every project we take on is a shared vision, where each team member contributes their unique skills and perspectives. From the first concept sketch to the final reveal, our team works together to turn ideas into tangible, beautiful spaces that serve their intended purpose.

A Team of Diverse Expertise

The success of our collaborative process lies in the expertise each of our team members brings to the table. Led by Katherine McCravey, the owner and principal designer, we have a diverse team that balances creativity with practical problem-solving to meet our clients' needs.

Jessica Budge, our Senior Designer, is known for her ability to blend aesthetics with functionality, specializing in multifamily, retail, and fitness spaces. Her design approach is rooted in years of experience and a deep understanding of how spaces influence the people who use them.

Kristen Chapman, our Technical Designer, ensures that all creative ideas are transformed into feasible, precise designs. With over 15 years of expertise in CAD and drafting, Kristen’s attention to detail ensures that everything from the initial concept to the final installation is executed flawlessly.

Our Designers, Hailey Nesimi and Brooke Scott, bring fresh perspectives to the team. Hailey’s expertise in hospitality design helps us create spaces that are as functional as they are engaging, while Brooke’s recent entry into the commercial design world keeps us ahead of trends and new technologies.

How We Collaborate to Bring Ideas to Life

From the very beginning of each project, we work closely with our clients to understand their vision, needs, and goals. Our process is built around open communication, allowing every team member to contribute their expertise at each stage of the design process.

Katherine may start with the overarching design concept, guiding the project’s vision. Jessica adds her creativity by suggesting materials and layouts that will not only elevate the space but also create the right atmosphere. Kristen ensures that every detail is technically sound, while Hailey and Brooke contribute their insights on how to make the design both fresh and functional for the end users.

This continuous exchange of ideas ensures that no detail is overlooked, and every aspect of the design is approached with the collective wisdom of the team. Whether we’re optimizing a space’s layout, choosing the perfect materials, or finalizing the color palette, our team works in tandem to create a space that aligns with the client’s vision and needs.

The Result: Spaces That Work

The beauty of our collaborative approach is that it results in spaces that are not only beautiful but functional. We design with intention, ensuring that each space serves its purpose and enhances the experience of those who use it. Whether it’s a productive office environment, a welcoming retail space, or a dynamic hospitality area, we create designs that work just as well as they look.

Each member of our team brings a unique perspective, and together, we craft environments that go beyond aesthetics. We create spaces that are optimized for the people who will live, work, or interact within them, ensuring that both form and function are always balanced.

Collaboration for Every Project

Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do. It’s the foundation of our design philosophy and the driving force behind every successful project. By combining our diverse skills, experiences, and perspectives, we’re able to create spaces that exceed expectations and stand the test of time.

If you’re looking for a design team that thrives on collaboration, creativity, and a commitment to excellence, we’d love to work with you. Together, we’ll transform your space into something truly extraordinary.
