ABOUT

Alice Tshilenge Ballery, Interior Designer and Founder of L'Atelier By ATB, passionately discussing her approach to designing soulful spaces that tell clients' stories and create memorable experiences.

“I am passionate about designing spaces that inspire you to live
your best life.”

Bonjour !

I'm Alice, the heart and soul behind L'Atelier By ATB. Born and raised in France, I grew up surrounded by timeless architecture, vibrant antique markets, and a deep appreciation for beauty in everyday life. You could say I've always had a bit of a design bug—from rearranging furniture as a kid to renovating old pieces of furniture.

My journey to becoming an interior designer wasn't exactly a straight line. Starting as a Spanish teacher before taking a leap of faith to pursue my passion for design just before becoming a mom. (Talk about a whirlwind!)

As a mom of two, I understand firsthand the importance of creating a home that's both beautiful (Architecture Digest Lovers, I see you) and functional for real life. I love blending old and new, finding treasures at flea markets, and incorporating inspiration from my travels.

My goal is to help you create a home where you can thrive, connect, and make memories that last a lifetime.

Whether you're a busy professional, a growing family, or a savvy investor, I'm here to guide you on your design journey. Let's create a space that not only looks amazing and nourish your soul but also supports your lifestyle and brings you joy.

P.S. If you're wondering about the name L'Atelier By ATB? It's a nod to my French roots (L'/at·el·ier/ means "the workshop") and my initials (ATB).

Beyond the Designs: Getting to Know Me

Inviting a designer into your home is an act of trust. You're not just welcoming someone into your physical space; you're also sharing your dreams, your aspirations, and your vision for how you want to live.

At L'Atelier By ATB, we value that trust and believe in building relationships based on transparency and authenticity. To help you get to know us better, we invite you to explore Alice's personality and the values that guide her design philosophy.

Holistic Approach

I believe your home should nurture your well-being. I consider every element – from natural light to color psychology – to create a sanctuary that supports your mind, body, and spirit.

We feel really good in our new bedroom; we've never had the chance to enjoy such a nice place. Now, it's much more functional, and it's like living in a Pinterest bedroom every day. We love it!.”
