Interior design with your well-being in mind. We're where aesthetics meet wellness in perfect harmony.
We passionately believe interiors should do more than just look good; they should invite connection, encourage relaxation, and inspire joy. We don't design unlivable showpieces — we create spaces for living and loving every day.

Full-Service Interior Design Firm Based in Athens, Georgia.
Your home should be more than just a beautiful space — it's the backdrop for your life, after all. It's where you unwind after a long day, where you host friends and family, raise families (and fur babies) and where you create memories that last a lifetime.
Our range of services are tailored to your specific health, lifestyle, and design needs. We offer bespoke design solutions, from full-home makeovers to room-by-room transformations, always with a focus on your health and comfort.
We’d love to hear your story and help you create a space that not only brings your vision to life but also supports your well-being. Reach out to us today and let us be your guide to a one of a kind experience in every room. Because at The Intentional Design Studio, we're not just designing homes—we're designing lifestyles.
Let's start your journey towards a healthier, happier home.

Is your home helping or hurting you?
Interior design for health conscious individuals and families
Unusable spaces. Awkward features. Toxic building materials and furnishings. A kitchen that fights you at every turn and makes cooking a chore. Bedrooms that don't promote deep, healing sleep. Living areas that don't support your families lifestyle.
Sound familiar? Our mission is to help you have a beautiful, healthy home that supports your health and your lifestyle. We create homes that are liveable and enjoyable because they're designed to support you.
We use non-toxic materials, finishes and furnishings, biophilic principals, and approach our designs through both a holistic and a scientific lens.
here's what we do:

“Catherine was the perfect choice! She was extremely organized and ensured we were well taken care of every step of the way. She took the time to really understand what we wanted, how we use every room in our house, and what our health needs were and made our house into a home that worked with us not against us. We can't wait to do another project with her!”

client praise
I don't want someone to have a health crisis before they start making changes to their home.
Our mission is not just about crafting visually stunning spaces; it's about creating sanctuaries for health and happiness. Your peace of mind is at the forefront of our design strategy, ensuring you can enjoy the journey of transformation as much as the final reveal.
Employing our patented IDS method, we streamline your project from conception to completion. Our process is not only about effectiveness — it's steeped in a rich tradition of Southern hospitality and warmth. We don't just design your home; we welcome you into our family.
We passionately believe interiors should do more than just look good; they should invite connection, encourage relaxation, and inspire joy. We don't design showpieces — we create spaces for living and loving every day.
