Trente Ashton has practiced interior design in Atlanta since her 1991 graduation from the University of Alabama, where she received her bachelor’s degree in this field. In 1997 she passed the National Council for Interior Design Qualification (NCIDQ) examination, further enhancing her professional credentials. It was during this year that she began working on her own, which culminated in the creation of her own company in 2000. Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles cited Trente as one of the “Six Young Desigers Worth Watching” in its January 2000 issue. The following year she was chosen to participate in the 2001 Decorators Showhouse in Atlanta. In December 2004 Trente was featured in the Atlanta Journal Constitution’s, “Feng Shui for 2005: Harmony at Home”. Early in her career, aware of the importance of blending beauty with harmony in one’s environment, Trente began the study of feng shui. Her instinctive ability to combine these elements led her to advanced training. In this pursuit, she has completed advanced certification and teacher training in Interior Alignment and Instinctive Feng Shui with Denise Linn. She has, in addition, studied Black Sect Feng Shui and is a member of the Feng Shui Guild. Trente has also studied Earth Acupuncture, Levels I and II, with Neil Wood. Her knowledge of these multi disciplines allows her to create for each client a sanctuary within his or her home or work environment.
