We had the good fortune of connecting with Kateryna Wolf and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kateryna, what was your thought process behind starting your own business?
I started my own business many years ago because I felt a strong need to implement my own vision for the interior design process. While I gained valuable experience working under others, I often found myself limited by someone else’s guidelines and creative direction. I wanted the freedom to explore ideas that felt more personal, more intentional — and more reflective of how I believe good design should function and feel.

Starting my own firm allowed me to build a process rooted in collaboration, cultural sensitivity, and attention to detail — one where every decision supports the client’s lifestyle, values, and long-term goals. It’s been a journey of creative independence and growth, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
When I started my business, I had one clear principle in mind: always begin with a 3D rendering. I believe that visual clarity is the foundation of a successful design — not just for me as a designer, but for the client. When clients can see their future space, it builds trust, excitement, and collaboration from the very beginning.

What makes my process stand out is the level of detail and technical precision I bring to each project. I provide full drawing sets — including electrical layouts, flooring plans, elevations, and material selections — and work closely with both clients and builders to ensure everything is coordinated and clearly communicated.

One of the unexpected challenges I faced when launching my business in the U.S. was adapting from the metric system to the imperial system. It may sound simple, but when you’ve spent your entire education and early career working in millimeters and meters, suddenly thinking in feet and inches can be a real adjustment — especially when precision matters! But it’s one of those things you push through, and now it’s second nature.

I’ve only been in the U.S. for about 3.5 years, but I’m proud of how far I’ve come in a short time. I’ve built strong relationships, earned the trust of repeat clients, and grown through referrals — which tells me that the work speaks for itself. Starting a business in a new country isn’t easy, but the combination of passion, resilience, and a clear design process helped me find my place.

What I want people to know about my brand is that it’s built on intention. It’s not just about aesthetics — it’s about creating spaces that feel personal, functional, and beautifully resolved. I see design as storytelling through space, and I’m honored to help bring those stories to life.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
If my best friend were visiting Georgia, I’d take them on a little tour of all my favorite places — a mix of nature, culture, design, and good food. We’d start with a stroll through Ponce City Market, check out the High Museum of Art, and spend some quiet time at the Atlanta Botanical Garden. A visit to the Georgia Aquarium is always a must, no matter how many times you’ve been.

I’d definitely plan a day trip to Blue Ridge — such a peaceful, charming town — and we’d explore Downtown Roswell and Downtown Duluth, which both have amazing restaurants, boutiques, and a great local vibe. One of my favorite spots for dinner is Fish Tales, a cozy restaurant right on the lake.

And of course, I’d take them to see one of my ongoing projects — a lake house on Lake Lanier. It’s always special to share a little piece of my work and vision in a setting that inspires me so much.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Without a doubt, my biggest shoutout goes to my mom.
She was the one who first recognized my creative potential and gently pushed me toward interior design when I was 18 and choosing my university path. At the time, I wasn’t entirely sure what direction I wanted to take — but she saw something in me that I hadn’t yet seen in myself. Her belief in my eye for aesthetics, my attention to detail, and the way I approached space gave me the courage to pursue this field seriously.

Looking back now, I realize how pivotal that moment was. Her encouragement set the foundation for everything I’ve built since — and I’m endlessly grateful for her guidance, love, and vision.
