A well-designed home starts with the people living in it.
your home designed for the way you live

At Caitlin Rose Designs, every project begins with one simple belief: the best homes aren't designed around trends—they're designed around the people who live in them.
That's why every project starts with our signature **Life-Lived Questionnaire**. Before we talk about finishes, furniture, or floor plans, we take the time to understand how you and your family move through your home each day. We uncover what's working, what's frustrating, what brings you joy, and how your spaces can better support the life you're already living.
From there, every design decision is made with intention. The result isn't just a beautiful home—it's one that's thoughtfully tailored to your routines, your priorities, and the moments that matter most. Because a well-designed home doesn't just look good. It makes everyday life feel easier, more functional, and more like you.
it's more than just a place you stay
Home is where you can put down all the different “faces” you have to hid behind throughout each day. The space where you can be authentically you. It’s where you spend so much of your life and shape the lives of your loved ones and that’s why I believe your home should be more than just a trending aesthetic. It should embrace and reflect your inner self and bring you peace, because you deserve to put your feet up and just be.
Home is where you create the beautiful memories that make up your life.
let's create home
Hi there, I'm Caitlin!
meet your designer
I'm a firm believer that our homes are the most important spaces in our lives, because so much of life happens there. It's where we return at the end of a hard day. It's where we laugh, mourn, create life, make hard decisions, solve problems, and spend moments of time that are sometimes forgotten, while others last a lifetime.
Life happens at home and so often people that come to me have seen it as a place of clutter, stress, disorganization, or discontentment. I've made it my personal mission to transform spaces not just through beauty, but in a way that maximizes life, alleviates stress, and makes your house the home you truly want to return to.
My husband and I recently bought our first home, and the joy of building a life with someone where we have a place to lay the foundations of our memories together has magnified my view of the home's importance in life. Whether it's small moments like starting my day with a good espresso in our kitchen to the larger moments of beautiful life-planning conversation I have with my husband while we cuddle our cat Moto in the living room... Life happens in our home. Our life.
Your life happens in your home, and it has been my mission through every project since I’ve embarked on this adventure to make your home the most beautiful magnifier of your life possible, so you no longer feel like your home is an added stressor in your day-to-day, rather it becomes a proponent of peace and happy memories made.

She was efficient, creative, friendly, and enjoyable to work with.
Caitlin provided the final touches to our space. She was willing to listen to ideas and not pursh us beyond our limits. She was efficient, creative, friendly, and enjoyable to work with. She added functional space to our home that is beautiful for entertaining and our own pleasure.

She was able to make my new space a home
I can’t thank Caitlin enough for everything she has done for me! I have very little vision and creativity so when I moved into my new place I was overwhelmed thinking about furnishing and decorating it. Caitlin for sure came to my rescue. I simply filled out an easy and fun questionnaire and from that she was able to make my new space a home. She was always available and went above and beyond what I expected. She measured all of my spaces in my home and took the time to pick out items that would work for me to choose from. What a relief that was! I have another project in mind that she will definitely be helping me with and I can’t wait. I highly recommend Caitlin as she is talented, prompt, sweet and so great to work with. Thank you Caitlin!
