We’re creative and we’re disciplined. It’s one thing to design a great space. It’s another to know the real cost and how to build it.

Interior Design
Stories told. Line by line.
Every space tells a story through the way it welcomes us, moves us, connects us, and makes us feel. At Cline, those stories take shape line by line: in the flow of a floor plan, the character of a material, the warmth of the light, and the details that give a place its own sense of identity.
Our interior designers bring the creative focus and technical expertise of a dedicated interiors studio. Through interior architecture, space planning, visualization, material selection, furnishings, procurement, and installation, we shape spaces from the inside out, creating environments that are expressive, purposeful, and built to perform.
As part of an integrated design firm, our interiors team can also draw on architecture, planning, landscape architecture, and branding to consider not only the space, but the complete experience surrounding it. We can lead the interior design scope, collaborate with an outside architect, or work alongside Cline’s broader disciplines to carry one clear story from the earliest idea through the final detail.
Organic Modernism: Designing Peace Apartments' Spaces
Every line has a purpose. Every detail adds to the story. From the first idea through final installation, we shape interiors that feel considered, connected, and entirely their own.
Our designers pair creative vision with interior architecture, technical knowledge, and insight into the people and markets each space serves. With architecture, planning, landscape architecture, branding, and procurement within reach, we can connect the interior to the complete experience of the place.
Services — From early visioning through final installation, Cline’s Interior Design team brings the creativity, technical expertise, and range of services to guide every phase of the process. Through conceptual thinking, local insight, and close collaboration across disciplines, we create interiors that feel cohesive, distinctive, and fully realized.
Project Vision & Programming
Every strong design begins with understanding.
We listen to the client, study the audience and market, assess project needs, and identify opportunities that can shape the experience from the outset. Together, we establish a vision that is imaginative, purposeful, and grounded in the realities of the project.
Interior Architecture & Space Planning
The experience of a space begins with how it is shaped.
We study circulation, adjacencies, proportion, visibility, function, and flow to create environments that work intuitively and make a strong first impression. Our designers understand where walls should move, how spaces should connect, and how planning decisions influence everything that follows.
Concept Design & Storytelling
A clear concept gives every decision purpose.
Drawing inspiration from the people, place, architecture, brand, and project goals, we develop a distinct narrative that guides the spatial experience, materials, lighting, furnishings, artwork, and details.
Visualization
We make ideas visible before they are built.
Through sketches, 3D modeling, renderings, animations, and immersive visualization, clients can explore the future space, evaluate options, and make informed decisions while there is still time to refine them.
Fixtures, Finishes, & Materials
Materials establish the character, rhythm, and feeling of a place.
We select and specify finishes, fixtures, lighting, and materials that support the design story while responding to durability, availability, maintenance, budget, and long-term performance.
Documentation & Technical Coordination
A strong idea depends on clear execution.
Our designers translate the vision into coordinated drawings, specifications, details, and schedules that provide clarity for pricing and confidence during construction. We work closely with architects, engineers, consultants, contractors, fabricators, and vendors to resolve the details that bring the space together.
Construction Administration
Design does not stop when construction begins.
We remain actively involved throughout the process, reviewing submittals, responding to field questions, evaluating substitutions, and helping the project team solve challenges without losing sight of the original idea.
Furniture, Fixtures, & Equipment
Furnishings give a space scale, comfort, personality, and purpose.
We select furniture, fixtures, and equipment that support the way the space will be used and reinforce the overall design concept—from custom focal points to durable everyday pieces.
Procurement, Warehousing, & Installation
Our procurement team carries the vision from specification through installation.
We can manage pricing, purchasing, vendor coordination, expediting, warehousing, delivery, installation, and final placement, giving clients greater continuity and a single source of accountability throughout the process.
Art & Accessory Curation
The final layer brings the story into focus.
We curate artwork, accessories, objects, and styling elements that create personality, add depth, and make the finished space feel complete.
Brand & Environmental Experience
A strong place and a strong identity should tell the same story.
Working with Cline’s branding team, we can connect naming, visual identity, signage, wayfinding, graphics, and the physical environment to create a more recognizable and cohesive experience.
