What’s one feature you think every room should have? Every room should have something special that the client loves and that money can’t buy. For example, I can create a beautiful space with new and old things, but only the client can add that irreplaceable piece of his or her past or heart.
What was your vision for this home’s interior? These clients needed a comfortable house that showcases their love of all things Lowcountry. So they came to me with plans for a home with big painted porches, and we took it from there. When I visit their house, the doors to the porch are always open, Jimmy Buffett is on the speakers, and flip-flops are the only shoes you need.
Do you have a favorite accessory or piece in this house? No doubt. On move-in day, one of the homeowners showed me an old wooden box and told me she wanted to use it somewhere. It ended up being my favorite thing in the house. It’s an old ballot box from her small hometown in North Carolina. It is such a treasure and one that needs to be seen, so we used it as a side table in the living room. For more information, call S.
