She launched Cat French Design LLC to be a creative partner to her clients throughout the entire process, taking on the big design challenges and thinking outside the box to create something completely unique for each and every space.

She leads a diversely talented team of professionals that work with your inspirations and guide you until the very last detail is placed. Cat was an artist before pursuing her graduate work in design. She draws on her studio art background to bring big design projects to life using the building blocks of color, pattern, texture, and form. Cat believes that beauty and function can weave together seamlessly to make stunning, timeless, and incredibly comfortable spaces that are the perfect fit for you.
Cat is the only North Carolina Designer to be routinely showcased as a Featured Designer on The Design Network. Her work has been featured in Chapel Hill Magazine, Home & Decor, Houzz, Chairish, and many other local and national platforms.
