A Playroom for FOUR under FOUR
When you've got four boys under four, it's pretty important that you've got a playroom space that is well organized and designed to contain all that four little boys can do to a room.
BeltLine Reboot
Two technology companies share office space in this refurbished industrial office off the Atlanta BeltLine: a sustainable redevelopment project that, when completed, will connect 45 intern neighborhoods via a 22-mile loop of trails and parks. The entire BeltLine is based on railroad corridors that formerly encircled the city of Atlanta.
Looks Like Teen Spirit
These awesome Decatur teen girls share a room and were desperate for better use of their space. Their mom got them these double loft beds but did not know where to go from there. They were so massive in the space and seemed to take over.
Little Changes, Big Difference
Raise your hand if you have a sparsely decorated guest room in your home. I see you, there. And there. Yup, I see you too. Okay, put your hands down. We've all been there. You want your guest room to be a refreshing and comfortable space for your guests: a place where they feel special and welcome in your home.
A Place Where Dreams Are Made
I love it when clients want MORE. After transforming the entry, living room, dining room, and patio area earlier in the year, my clients hired me to update their master bedroom and guest rooms. Today, we'll explore the master bedroom.
Fresh in the Highlands
My clients have a gorgeous tudor home in the Virginia Highlands suburb of Atlanta. It needed to be fresh and rescue dog friendly!
Every playroom needs a Climbing Wall
My clients wanted the playroom in the basement to be the neighborhood hangout - high voltage and lots of fun. Fun and Done! Every basement, neighborhood hangout needs a rock wall. Right?
Beach-Inspired Living in Atlanta
My clients were married on the beach. The ocean inspires their lifestyle - casual, dynamic and full of life. They love to entertain and with little children and a big, sweet dog, the design needed to be functional and open.
Vintage Modern
This young family bought a diamond in the rough house - a great area, good bones, and hasn’t been updated since it was built. Oh yes, my friend, we’re talking pink carpet and floral wallpaper. It was amazing.
Color Boost, The Sequel
When I first worked on this beautiful house for this lovely newly married couple, they liked the back living space of their house but did not know what to do with the front dining room, entry and reading room. When we finished that, they loved it so much, the living space now needed to catch up!
The kids are saying I'm amazing
My client's little girl had a gray room that needed a high-voltage shot of life.
Modern Dining with the Fam
This house has a beautiful and unique layout. The dining room was at the base of a wide set of stairs in the heart of the house that has the feel of an art gallery. (And... that's how we treated the space -- we added beautiful art and it absolutely made the space.)
Hodgepodge Basement Turns Hostess with the Mostest
My client had a basement that was filled with a hodgepodge of furniture from her previous house. It was comfortable and lovely but she wanted it to have a lot more life and be a space that was much more conducive for her family of 6 and their friends to have movie night and play games.
Fresh, Blue, and like Kelly Ripa
When my client called, she was knee deep in construction dust. She had her architect draw up plans to open up the house, add a porch with a skylight to the house with gorgeous doors and transom windows to let as much light in as possible.
Urban Farmhouse
If you do not know much about Nashville, Tennessee, let me sum up for you: It’s amazing. You have to go. Everyone in the world is moving there. I lived there for a few years and met my husband there. We go back to visit family on the regular and it holds a very special space in my heart.
French Antiques Go Modern
My dear aunt and uncle have lived in Dallas, Texas for decades and in this beautiful house when two of the kids were still at home. Now that they've been out of the house for awhile now, it was time that their home had some love.
Bluegrass Americana
In order to decorate a house and tell a family's story, it's important to learn the family's story. It is absolutely my favorite thing about my job. You people are fascinating. This family was so jam packed full of interesting, quirky and fun, I could hardly contain myself.
Family Bungalow
My dear friends were contemplating a move. To move or stay, that was the question. What wasn't a question was that their home was no longer working for them. The kids were old enough to keep toys to their designated spaces and the furniture had done it's time. Hand-me-downs and the pieces from the bachelor days made it feel less than who they had become as a family and it was time for a reset.
Apartment Turns Home
Design can be healing. This is another amazing project to share because the process was so special to myself and my client. She had just experienced a very difficult life change and found herself in a new space.
Townhouse Transformation
My client recently retired and is now spending a lot of time at home. She decided she had worked hard her whole life and deserved to actually enjoy her home. Amen to that!
