CLASSIC INSPIRATIONS / RESIDENTIAL DESIGNFROM A SINGLE ROOM TO A FRESH START
A room makeover. A home prepared for its next chapter. A retail display that draws people in. Classic Inspirations combines an eye for detail with a practical understanding of your needs, taste, and budget.
WHAT WE DO
Design support for your home,
your business, and your celebrations.
Your home holds your heart. We help shape rooms that reflect your life, from a fresh color palette to a complete interior.
A well-designed space supports your business and the people it serves. Our approach starts with your goals and carries through the details.
Refresh your home for guests, a new look, or a move. We consider the property from curbside to back fence, with ideas for arrangement, color, and presentation.
A “Walk & Talk” consultation identifies practical enhancements inside and out: furniture placement, decluttering, paint palettes, and smart updates. We work with the space and furnishings you have to help it show its best.
Choose pieces that suit your space and how you use it. Scale, construction, fabrics, and finishes all matter.
From a whole room to a single buffet, dresser, or kitchen island, we can help you pull the details together. Our “Accessorize My Area” style-board service uses your photos, measurements, and preferences to create a shopping list and styling guidance.
Give customers a reason to step inside. Memorable window displays and thoughtful retail presentations help bring your merchandise into focus.
Classic Inspirations works with retailers on visual presentations suited to their space and needs, drawing on Kathy’s background in store windows, retail displays, and store design.
Make room for the occasion. We bring the details together so your home feels welcoming for the holidays or a special celebration.
Seasonal styling, entertaining spaces, and decorative touches create a setting for gathering. Thoughtful entrances, table settings, and focal points help you welcome guests with ease.

MEET THE DESIGNER
Kathy Olund
After completing her degree in design, Kathy returned to school to study merchandising. An internship with Marshall Field’s introduced her to the art of retail presentation and the magic of store windows at the State Street store.
She went on to become a Cluster Visual Manager at Sears, overseeing several Chicago-area stores and helping open the new State Street location, before moving into store design at the national headquarters.
Throughout her career, Kathy has remained committed to her residential and commercial design clients. Her approach brings together creative vision, an appreciation for detail, and a personal investment in your space.
