Denise Calhoun Pardue

Denise is a thoughtful, approachable, and detail-oriented designer. In 2016, she graduated magna cum laude from Western Carolina University with Bachelors Degrees in both Interior Design & Art. Following graduation, her career began in Cashiers and Highlands, NC, where she had the privilege of designing luxury kitchens and bathrooms for an array of clients. She gained a well-respected reputation for merging artistic elegance and spatial problem solving to create spaces that are beautiful, functional, and distinctive.

Denise is thrilled to be back in her hometown – As the daughter of a builder and native of Ashe County, she has a deep-rooted understanding of what it means to curate a home and live in this breath-taking region. She grew up visiting her father’s construction sites with a sense of awe as she jumped through stud walls and climbed scaffolding, envisioning what the space would feel like once it was complete. Today, her intention is to bring that same sense of play and excitement to her clients, along with her experience and expertise, as she guides them through the process of creating a space they love.
