Hi, I'm Kate

I'm a licensed architect and owner of Balanced Architecture that specializes in wellness and sustainable design.  I'm here to make sustainable and healthy design accessible to everyone.

I’ve been obsessively designing sustainable buildings since graduating college in 2007.  

Having lived in many places and worked with hundreds of clients, it’s evident that most homes aren’t designed to help the people that live in them thrive. Often, our homes are actually hindering our health and well-being.

I know what it’s like to live in a poorly performing house that makes daily life more difficult and uncomfortable. As a busy mom to two little kiddos, I crave a home environment that brings ease to my daily life, that keeps my family comfortable and healthy, and that helps protect the planet.

That’s why I specialize in wellness design specifically by teaching families how to create homes that add ease to their daily lives while improving their health and well-being and the health of the planet...

...because you don’t have to be a design expert, you just need to know how to do it. I’m here to show you how.
