Our core philosophy centers on the seamless integration of personal expression, functionality, and sustainability in design.
At CCA, interior design goes well beyond the mere placement of furnishings. It’s the creation of environments that exude depth and intention, reflecting our clients’ lifestyles and dreams with tactile, emotive precision. We skillfully intertwine materiality, texture, and color to craft evocative spaces that effortlessly harmonize artful living with the rigors of daily life.
Meet The Designers
Courtney Nystrom and Sara Schroeder work collaboratively to lead the design of our interior projects. They provide clients with the client-centered, thoughtful service that CCA is known for—with an added level of expertise in livable, functional, highly memorable interiors. Courtney and Sara channel their diverse multidisciplinary experiences and architectural perspective to create responsive spaces that resonate deeply with their inhabitants and natural environments.
The Process
At CCA, creating interiors is a fluid and dynamic process. We tailor our approach to fit our clients’ individual needs, budget, and timeline. Whether we’re designing a new home or renovating an existing one, no project is too small or too large. We offer the flexibility to work either collaboratively with our clients or independently for a more hands-off approach. No matter the size or type of the challenge at hand, the outcome is the same—spaces that embrace the extraordinary, foster serenity, and create a haven for their owners.
Planning + Design
Every project begins with a thorough consultation to get a true understanding of our client’s lifestyle and how they engage with their space. This information becomes the foundation of our work together. We are experts in spatial planning, ensuring the floor plan, room sizes, and volumes are flawless and the stunning views are captured. We guide the selection of every element the new environment will be composed of, from flooring and millwork to textiles and art—while simultaneously working alongside the architectural team to refine the practical details.
Sourcing
Sourcing is the key to a well-curated home with a cohesive feel. We create thoughtful interior presentations to help clients envision their space and streamline the decision-making process. We are adept at collecting elements that are modern, antique, custom-made, artisan-crafted, and deeply personal. While diverse, they share a common thread of timeless style and quality.
Construction + Installation
Once plans are approved and furnishings are in-hand, we turn our shared vision into a tangible reality. We work with the architects, builders, and trades throughout construction to ensure perfect execution. When construction is complete, our team installs each aesthetic detail, guided by our clients’ daily routines and personalities. For a truly turn-key experience, our designers are available to fully furnish homes—down to softgoods, silverware, and scents.
