Method
At Katch Design Collective, we treat design as both a science and an art. Guided by four principles, we create interiors that foster balance, functionality, and wellbeing, thoughtfully shaping every detail to enrich the lives of those who inhabit them.
BIOPHILIC DESIGN
Biophilia reflects our innate connection to creation — the natural world that surrounds and sustains us. Our senses are attuned to nature’s patterns, colors, sounds, and scents, and when we encounter them, our minds and bodies instinctively relax. Even brief moments outdoors have measurable effects on wellbeing, whether through practices like forest bathing or the timeless use of natural materials in architecture and design.
BEAUTY
The very profession of Interior Design answers this call, to marry the desire for beauty with the need for shelter. We all want to live and work in beautiful spaces. While it may seem obvious to consider beauty when creating interiors, we rarely stop to ask why it matters so profoundly.
INTUITIVE DESIGN + NEUROAESTHETICS
Design shapes how we feel, think, and live. Neuroaesthetics, the study of how the brain responds to beauty and design, explains why colors, textures, lighting, and spatial arrangements profoundly affect our emotions, cognition, and overall wellbeing.
RITUALIZING ROUTING
Many of us move too quickly through life, often wearing our busyness as a badge of worthiness. We have more modern conveniences than ever before, yet somehow, less time. It seems any time saved has been usurped by a never-ending to-do list, or the technology that has saved us time has now stolen it back (plus interest).
