philosophy/profile
A home is the place in which external and internal landscapes meet. Outside may be a rustling aspen grove or a thriving street scene. Inside, a well-designed home offers a range of spaces that both buffer and enliven those within.Distinctive design morphs the landscapes of your site and self into an expression of--and for--your life. Expansive and protective. Boldly spirited and comfortably familiar. A gathering place and a retreat.
Every client, site, initial design concept, and budget presents a unique collection of possible solutions. Through exploring your sensibilities, we can transform your ideas into a home rich in spatial and textural relationships and contrasts.
CF Design, Ltd. was founded in 1998, when the firm's principal, Cheryl Fosdick, opened her own business, now located at 230 E. Superior Street in downtown Duluth, Minnesota. Since that time, the firm has designed and seen through completion more than 100 new homes and remodels. Most of our work is in the upper midwest on sites both rural and urban, and tends to reflect a contemporary aesthetic.
In 2003, Cheryl Fosdick expanded her design offerings to include custom modern cabinetry, wall panels and furniture. The CF Design office is a great resource for exploring interior finish details--cabinet veneers, lighting, fabrics, textures, and colors.
