Cait Hampshire

Principal Designer, MEDes, BAID, NCIDQ

Cait graduated from Mount Royal University in 2009, where she excelled in the Bachelor of Applied Interior Design program. Over her 14-year career she has worked equally in residential and commercial/ hospitality design (completing over 50 unique projects), and has been behind some of the most defining spaces in Western Canada. In 2016 she returned to school part-time to pursue her masters degree, completing this work in 2018. She holds a Masters of Environmental Design, where her thesis explored the intricate emotional and psychological relationships between people and space.

Cait finds joy in the complex intersection of creativity and organization, a combination which enables her to effectively manage complex projects and an elite design team while delivering beautiful interiors that align with her client’s budgets. Her personal belief is that interior environments should do more than provide shelter and safety; they should engage with us emotionally, creating comprehensive spaces that not only meet our physical needs, but enrich our daily lives.

Cait is a Professional Interior Designer registered with the National Council for Interior Design Qualification (NCIDQ), and works closely with Mount Royal University as a part-time sessional instructor. She values the opportunity to impart her knowledge and expertise onto the next generation of designers and creators.
