Background
Kathryn Ballance is an interior decorator living in Raleigh, North Carolina. She was born-and-raised in the state, and attended UNC Chapel Hill where she earned both her undergraduate degree and Doctorate of Pharmacy. She and her husband live in their lovely 1950’s home a few minutes from downtown with their three cats. When she isn’t working with a client, she can be found hunting for antiques at estate sales, working on upholstery projects, or reading a book on the back porch.
Experience
After leading a fulfilling career as a pharmacist at hospitals for over a decade, Kathryn decided to finally shift her focus full-time to interior decoration, her true passion. As a fervent reader and hands-on learner, Kathryn is self-taught through her own studies and real-life experience over the years.
Kathryn has a unique passion for balancing colors and textures in a room, making tasteful combinations that envelop and comfort those in the space. She also has a unique passion for working with fabrics, completing various re-upholstery projects in her spare time (curtains, chairs, etc.) to establish a firm appreciation for the process which she then brings to each of her projects.
Kathryn officially started Kathryn Ballance Interiors, LLC in 2023 and began taking on clients with custom decoration needs. Since KBI’s inception, her goal in each project has been to make a client’s space both as inviting and as functional as possible, ensuring each space meets the unique lifestyle of a client and their family.
