“[CRS] helped us to refine what we keep in our library to things that we tend to use the most and minimize other materials/catalogs, etc. Her willingness to listen to how it would function best for us really comes through in what she created! The space is now clean and organized, more spaciously laid out, and enjoyable to spend time in. We would highly recommend her!”

Jamie Lewis, VP Interior Design

CRSolutions didn’t just happen—it made sense. 💡 Claire’s background in the A&D industry (from early design work to being a rep) gave her a front-row seat to the same issue over and over again: beautiful libraries… zero systems. Lost samples, wasted time, and way too much energy spent searching/organizing instead of designing. So she fixed it. CRSolutions was built to bring structure, clarity, and systems that actually support the way design teams work. Because creativity flows a whole lot better when things aren’t chaos behind the scenes 🧐What’s one system in your workflow that could run smoother? #SmallBusinessWeek #FounderStory #WomenInBusiness #DesignIndustry #CRSLibrary
May is here! 🌱😍 New month, fresh start, and we’re kicking it off strong with a design library reset at @ked.interiors. Let’s get organized!

Most design libraries don’t struggle because of clutter—they struggle because there’s no system behind them. A functional library isn’t just organized. It’s structured. The most effective firms rely on clear systems for tracking samples, categorizing materials, and maintaining what’s actually relevant. Without that, even the most beautiful spaces become difficult to use. 💡When your systems are strong, your team spends less time searching—and more time creating. That’s where real efficiency begins. Save this for later, you’ll want to come back to it when you’re ready to improve your workflow. ✍️ If your library isn’t working the way it should, let’s fix that.

Your library should be a tool for your designers—not a barrier. Over time, even the most well-built design libraries can become cluttered, outdated, and difficult to navigate. What once inspired creativity can start to slow everything down. A true library overhaul goes beyond tidying—it’s about rebuilding a system that supports how your team works today. If your library feels more like a roadblock than a resource, it may be time for a reset. In her latest article, Claire Mattingly shares what to look for and how to identify what’s no longer serving your space. #CRSLibrary #DesignLibrary #InteriorDesignProcess #WorkspaceOptimization #DesignSystems
A well-thought out library isn’t just about how it looks—it’s about how it functions. 🤌 This transformation wasn’t just a visual upgrade. It created a system that allows the team to move faster, find materials with ease, and stay focused on what matters most: their clients and their designs. When your space is working for you, everything else flows more efficiently. If your current setup feels more frustrating than functional, you’re not alone—and it’s fixable. 💌 Connect with us if you’re ready to create a system that actually supports your workflow. #InteriorDesignBusiness #DesignTransformation #BeforeAndAfter #DesignOperations #WorkflowMatters ChicagoInteriorDesign OrganizedBusiness DesignEfficiency ClientExperience

Happy Earth Day 🌎 This industry is incredible… but the waste that comes with it is hard to ignore. @zer0landfillchicago is changing that—redirecting design materials to artists, teachers, and creatives instead of landfills. With a big influx of donations this round, their team could really use more volunteers to help keep it all moving. Clear out your samples, plan a drop-off, or jump in and help. 💪♻️ check out @zer0landfillchicago for more info. #EarthDay #ZeroLandfillChicago #SustainableDesign #ReduceReuseCreate #ChicagoDesign
A little peak into Claire’s week 👀 Running a business, managing libraries, being a mom— and somehow doing it all at once. It’s Stress Awareness Month, and honestly… it’s fitting. Most design libraries look good, but don’t function the way teams actually need, which adds way more stress than it should. We create systems that make your day easier, not harder. What’s one thing in your workspace that stresses you out? 👇 #stressawarenessmonth #mominbusiness #chicagosmallbusiness #InteriorDesignBusiness #organizingtips
