Welcome. I’m Kate, and I work with clients navigating renovations, downsizing and new stages of life, bringing thoughtful design, experienced guidance and personal care to every project. The aim is always to create a home that feels timeless, considered and genuinely suited to the way you live.

RESIDENTIAL INTERIOR DESIGN IN NORTH SYDNEY AND SURROUNDS

Considered interior design for homes that support the way you live.

Whether you’re renovating a long-held home, moving into an apartment or rethinking how your space supports the way you live now, I’ll help you bring the practical and aesthetic decisions together with purpose.

The result is a home that feels resolved, beautiful and genuinely suited to your life.

Interior design support shaped around your home and the way you live.

From spatial planning and joinery through to furniture, finishes and procurement, I offer considered design support for individual rooms, renovations and complete homes.

Every project begins with understanding your needs, priorities and the level of guidance that will make the process feel clear and manageable.

MEET KATE

A considered approach shaped by life and professional experience.

My appreciation for homes, colour and craftsmanship began long before I became an interior designer. It was later strengthened by decades in senior leadership, where accountability, preparation and sound decision-making were part of my everyday work.

Today, I bring those experiences together in a design practice that is thoughtful, organised and personally led.

A thoughtful balance of design and real life.

Every decision needs to work aesthetically, practically and within the broader context of your home.

    —Michelle | Collaroy, NSW

  • "Kate provided great advice as we downsized to an inner-city apartment. She researched and sourced items suitable to our new smaller home, and provided us with considerable savings on items perfect for our apartment. Kate was in touch on a regular basis via zoom and phone. We are looking forward to continuing our work with Kate Kerin Interiors to finalise our new home."
