Ambiance Interiors began thirty years ago as the brainchild of Kathryn S. Long, ASID, in the back corner of Sluder Furniture Company, her parents’ store in downtown Asheville. This legacy makes us unique – we have a shop, studio, and design office combined, instead of simply an office with a shelf of catalogs.

We have fine furniture, lighting, fabrics, wallcoverings, and accessories. Our clients can feel fabrics, see the difference in finishes, sit on chairs, appreciate colors, and be confident that what they order will fit their homes.

the team

 

We also have a fine staff – we design, support, keep books, place orders, schedule deliveries, and a myriad other tasks so your project will make you happy instead of nervous. We five have nearly a century of experience in home furnishings and design!

Kathryn specializes in new construction and major remodels that often involve teamwork with clients, architect, and contractors for as long as two years.

Picking paint colors

 

Linda Constable specializes in working with smaller, existing spaces to create comfortable nests for her clients. She is happy to consult in the shop (which she keeps looking great) or in the clients’ home.

Kathryn’s process begins with an exhaustive interview.

Linda begins her spaceplanning with careful attention to proportion and scale. She has a gift, honed by nearly thirty years’ experience, for marrying fabrics and colors to create delightful room settings.
