Home Modifications That Support Your Life

Your home should feel safe, functional, and supportive — not stressful or limiting.

At CW Design, I help you adapt your home so it works better for your daily life — whether you are navigating changing mobility, caring for a loved one, or planning ahead for the future.

As a Minnesota Accessibility Specialist, I take the time to understand your specific needs and how you live in your home.

Because when your home supports your daily life, it reduces stress and allows you to focus on what truly matters — your health, your comfort, and your time with the people you love.

How CW Design ™ Helps

  • Design & Advice

    I create practical, thoughtful solutions tailored to your home, your needs, and your daily routines.

    This includes exploring layout options, improving how your space functions day-to-day, and helping you understand what changes will have the greatest impact.

    My goal is to make the process feel clear and manageable — so you can move forward with confidence rather than feeling overwhelmed.

  • Home Assessment

    I evaluate your space to identify safety concerns and opportunities to improve access and function.

    During the assessment, I look at how you move through your home, what feels challenging, and how your space could better support your daily life.

    You will receive clear recommendations to help you understand what’s possible and what steps to take next.

  • Project Guidance

    I help you move forward with clarity —whether that includes defining scope, working with contractors, or supporting decisions along the way.

    Together, we make sure the right decisions are made and that everything stays aligned with your needs, your home, and your daily life.

    I stay involved as needed to answer questions, navigate decisions, and help reduce the stress that can come with managing a project.

“Would work with Catherine again! I found her randomly and felt like I Was talking to someone who understood me. She was great at bringing ideas but didn't overwhelm with lots of options. Saw the project through to the end and I love the result!”

Maureen B., Google Review ★★★★★

“We are loving our kitchen and especially now in the full tilt of holiday entertaining it’s proven to be so useful. Thanks for being part of our lives and our transformation!”

Bloomington Kitchen Remodel, Thank-you card

“Catherine was amazing and saved the day! She took the thousands of choices and narrowed it down to three. She explained in a knowledgeable, concise manner why she was choosing the three she did and used a picture board to summarize the options. She was very patient and answered all my questions. She didn't overwhelm me with too much information, but she gave me enough to be able to make a well-informed decision. She communicated clearly and was very organized. She far exceeded my expectations! I must admit before hiring Catherine, I didn't realize how valuable a certified interior designer would be. I am quite pleased with my decision to hire her and I would highly recommend her!”
