Kate Palkina
Originally from Russia, Kate earned her degree from Novosibirsk State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering. With over 10 years of experience in residential architecture and interior design, she moved to the U.S. to take on larger-scale projects—and found the perfect opportunity at Hobbs Architects.
As both an architect and interior designer, Kate is passionate about creating spaces that are not only functional but also innovative and meaningful. To better communicate design ideas and connect with clients, she studied a range of visualization tools that help bring concepts to life with clarity and purpose.
Kate loves what she does—especially the process of turning ideas into something real and impactful. She believes great design starts with thoughtful questions, strong coffee, and a healthy dose of curiosity.
And if you don’t find her in the office? She’s probably out hiking in the mountains—her favorite place to recharge and find inspiration.
