From a young age, Kate was drawn to design. Growing up in the dynamic environment of New York City, she developed a strong interest in art and architecture.
After earning her Studio Arts Degree, Kate moved to Minneapolis and founded her decorative painting company, Wanda, Inc. After more than fifteen years in that role, she shifted her focus to Kitchen and Bath Design. This transition allowed her to leverage her extensive experience in interior design, leading to the establishment of Kate Roos Design in 2015.
Her work has received recognition both locally and nationally, appearing in various respected publications.

As a kid, Leah was a careful observer, always arranging things, sketching, and redesigning her surroundings in her head. It was years before this natural inclination developed into a practical, professional skill.
After graduating from the College of St. Benedict in 2009 with an English and Art degree, she spent several years working in the Event Industry, catering and designing event décor. Later, still looking for the right fit, she went back to school for Kitchen and Bath Design, finally putting her eye for detail and love for design to work. Specializing in cabinetry design and CAD, she has been in the industry since 2016. Leah loves the challenge of finding innovative, personalized design solutions for each client, and has a particular love of older homes and historic details.
When she’s not designing, you can find her in the kitchen reading a cookbook, working in her garden, or at the cabin with her husband and three kids.

laura@kateroosdesign.com
Laura’s interest in design began at the age of 10, observing as her parents planned and built their family home in the farmlands of southeastern Minnesota. It was a hands-on experience that left an indelible impression. Laura earned an Interior Design degree from the University of Wisconsin-Stout in 2006.
After a decade of experience in the retail design industry and a brief detour into technology and healthcare operations, creative pursuits were calling, and Laura went back to school for Kitchen and Bath Design.
Drawing inspiration from her Midwestern roots and love of architectural history, Laura’s approach to design is guided by the era of the home and a commitment to balancing beauty with sensibility. Laura resides in Saint Paul with her husband, and when not designing you can find her enjoying a backyard table tennis match, expanding her Indian culinary repertoire, or planning the next improvement project for their 1917 Craftsman home.
