ABOUT
​
Hi, I’m Catherine Mock Pageau, founder of The Modern Cabin Company. I started this journey with a simple belief—that great design should do more than look beautiful; it should create a feeling, a sense of place you never forget. Every project is a collaboration, shaped by your lifestyle and vision, and crafted to harmonize with its surroundings. I’m personally involved in each step of the process, making sure your space is as unique and inspiring as the people who will live in it.
