Our signature process
At Katie Rainey Design, we believe that a home should feel effortless, functional, and beautiful. Our process is designed to guide you from idea to reality with clarity, creativity, and care. Here’s how we bring your vision to life in 7 simple steps:
- We begin with a conversation—about your home, your lifestyle, and how you want to feel in the space. This is our chance to learn what matters most to you and determine if your project is the right fit for our team. Once we align, we create a tailored scope of work and officially kick things off.
- Here’s where the fun begins! We translate your personality, inspirations, and daily rhythms into a clear design direction. Mood boards, material studies, and layout ideas start to bring your vision to life.
- We take measurements, review plans, and assess opportunities and constraints. Early collaboration with your builder, architect, or trades ensures your design is feasible, functional, and ready to move forward smoothly.
