Equally punchy, with a bit of an edge, is a Duluth abode by designer Kristin Kong (page 64), where the directive was to tone down the traditional architecture, while amping up the glam factor through bold, sparkling selections for everything from the breakfast room to a prayer/ meditation space. Perhaps there’s a creative adrenaline rush that’s associated with intrepid use of color, because this month, we’re all about capturing that sense of elation on paper, exploring everything from ADAC’s delightfully hidden gem, Keith, etc., (page 12) to the new, boldly designed Iberian Pig at Hanover Buckhead Village (page 24). Enjoy your summer—and the rush!

KEITH, ETC. A designer and nearprofessional shopper with discriminating taste, KEITH ARNOLD unleashes his trove of one-of-a-kind finds inside a boutique tucked into Ainsworth-Noah Written by THE EDITORS Photographed by MARC MAULDIN

TUCKED AWAY INSIDE ADAC’s AinsworthNoah showroom is one of this summer’s best discoveries: a treasure trove of intriguing works of art, objets, collections and antiques culled from around the world. Called Keith, etc., the showroom-within-a-showroom concept is the brainchild of Keith Arnold, the Vice President of Suzanne Kasler Interiors. A creative outlet for the highly inventive designer on one hand, and a showcase of his ingenious eye for style on the other, the trade-only boutique evokes the feeling of a Parisian antiques stall—and though Keith, etc. is teeming with curiosities, it’s also curated, masterfully so, with vignettes perfectly divided by palette, each with its own punch. What compelled you to open Keith, etc. and how do you see it evolving over time?

ATLANTA HOMES & LIFESTYLES:

KEITH ARNOLD: I have had it in the back of my mind to do something on my own for some time now, and I love to shop and find unusual things. I also love to style, so this concept is a marriage of those two passions. I hope Keith, etc. will become a designer destination and resource for unusual, fabulous accessories, art and antiques. ATLANTA HOMES & LIFESTYLES: What is Keith, etc. designed to celebrate, and what kind of shopper do you expect to attract? ARNOLD: At the heart of Keith, etc. is my personal style, which is really all about a stylish mix: pairing new and old, high and low, fancy and cool, traditional and modern. I love the tension between all of the complements! I really want to attract designers that need the special or unexpected layer to their project (or home). What makes an interior is often the inter-

esting accessories, eye-catching art or that incredible antique piece. I want to attract people who incorporate these things in their work. So I guess I expect the shopper to be design-minded, creative and someone that appreciates great style! ATLANTA HOMES & LIFESTYLES: As a designer and professional shopper yourself, what kind of experience were you looking to create for your own customers? And what are your favorite pieces that are currently in stock? ARNOLD: I want it to be an inspiring shopping experience, one that’s memorable and also, surprises the shopper, in a good way! Currently, I love the series of abstract line drawings by a French artist and I love the way that we framed them. Also, the rockcrystal and stone mirror is such an unusual and singular piece. Keith, etc. is a trade-only boutique at AinsworthNoah, ADAC, Ste 518. For up-to-date product arrivals, follow @keith.etc on Instagram

“As a designer, I am always collecting things,” says Keith Arnold, Vice President of Suzanne Kasler Interiors. Keith, etc. is located inside the Ainsworth-Noah showroom at ADAC, and evokes the feeling of a Parisian antiques stall. The boutique acts as Arnold’s creative outlet, offering unusual collections, found pieces and interesting works of art from his international travels and buying trips.

INVITING ENTRIES Making an entrance? AH&L explores the nuances of creating a lasting first impression Written by

SUZANNA CULLEN HAMILTON

After the Egyptians created doors for pyramid tombs, the ancient Greeks elevated door design in both appearance and construction. Later the medieval period led to enormous doors wherein protection from intruders was paramount. The Renaissance ushered in a period of elaborate decoration including relief carving, pilasters and ornamented, gilded bronze details. Cathedrals and castles featured highly figurative triple and quadruple doors to convey significance and power.

AMERICANS AT HOME Among Atlanta’s most noteworthy front doors are the 1926 Italian Baroque “Pink Palace,” pictured from the outside (top), and inside (above), in 2014. opposite, clockwise from left Classic entries by Peter Block, Yong Pak and Stan Dixon.

16

Because America is the only country ever founded on the principle of personal freedom, no architectural statement has been more profound than our front doors. From

the first Colonial houses to those of the Georgian, Neoclassical, Art Deco, Mid-Century and Modern periods, our homes speak volumes about the residents. In the South, we are fortunate to have stunning examples by renowned 20th-century architects such as Shutze, Reid, Means and Little.

CHARACTERISTICS AND CONSTRUCTION Both materials and applications vary greatly throughout centuries and across continents. Wood, copper, steel and glass are a few of the materials used to make single and multiple panels, louvered, Dutch and sliding doors. While the function remains the same, designs continue to evolve with materials and styles.

THE ANATOMY OF FABULOUS FRONT DOORS:

Architects Norman D. Askins, D. Stanley Dixon and Peter Block sound off At what point in the creative phase do you contemplate the design of the front door? D. STANLEY DIXON: At the very beginning! It’s one of my favorite parts of a house. PETER BLOCK: After the overall front elevation is complete, we contemplate the front door details and how it will be perceived from both inside and out. NORMAN D. ASKINS: We consider the front door during the very early design stage. How do you determine the aesthetic direction? DSD: It’s the first impression so the front door should be gracious, interesting, strong and safe, yet very approachable. PB: The exterior and interior must relate, so we look at the continuity of character throughout the house. What are ways that you personalize a front door? DSD: Color, scale, size and lighting all personalize a front entry. PB: It’s all about scale and

layering, and it must speak to the house, the neighborhood and the people using it. NA: I avoid stock-size doors, and prefer doors of a more significant scale, size and substance. Explain working within the context of a historical home. NA: I prefer to retain the original front door, and if a client wants more light, then we add a substantial “storm door” to the exterior to permit light in the foyer. What’s the most memorable front door you’ve designed and why? DSD: The sequence makes a front door truly special. For a beach house, we used reclaimed cypress louvers for a door that opens to an outdoor pavilion with views to the Atlantic Ocean beyond. NA: In an attempt to beef up an existing door at a nice spec house, we removed the stock door and inserted massive doors and a pedestrian passage. 17

SERENBE SHOWHOUSE Written and Produced by LORI JOHNSTON

SCANDINAVIAN DESIGN is making an imprint in Serenbe, as evidenced in plans for Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles’ sixth Serenbe Designer Showhouse. Steep pitched roofs, cedar shingles and an abundance of natural daylight are signature elements in the new home in the Mado hamlet, says architect Steve Dray of Serenbe Planning & Design. The showhouse, which runs September 20October 13, is a collaboration between Dray, South Haven Builders and a slate of top interior designers, led by A. Wooten Interiors. The house has clean

lines that lean modern but with classic and traditional elements, says designer Anna-Wooten Loggins. Tall ceilings and iron elements are found throughout, and a large plaster fireplace will add drama on the main floor of the 3,300-square-foot home (including the basement). Loggins says the hard surfaces will include high contrasts of blacks and whites with warm hardwoods running throughout. The layout, which includes two master suites— one on the main level and one on the second level—encourages easy living, maximizes function and takes advantage of its views. “The rear of the house overlooks a serene forest that will bring a sense of calm and touch of green to the space,” Loggins says. serenbeshowhouse.com

CONVERSION TIME ATLANTA’S HOUSING MARKET has swung back to apartmentto-condo conversions. Christa Huffstickler, founder and CEO of Engel & Völkers Atlanta, is managing sales for Midtown’s HARPER ON PIEDMONT, which previously was Ivy Hall apartments. Owner TriBridge Residential is offering 111 one, two and three-bedroom units from the $300,000s–$600,000s. In Buckhead’s ultraluxe market, Engel & Völkers Atlanta also is leading sales and marketing for THE RESIDENCES AT WALDORF ASTORIA, ATLANTA, following its $53.5 million sale to Xenia Hotels & Resorts and name change from The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Atlanta. The new ownership plans to revamp the common areas and food and beverage options at the Waldorf Astoria Atlanta Buckhead. Harrison Design has built out the remaining two-bedroom condos (six were available, as of early summer) with nearly 3,200 square feet to about 5,000 square feet and ranging from $2 million to $4 million. A full-floor residence recently sold for $3.95 million, the highest closed sales price for a condominium so far in 2019. 20

Around town with

FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS, I have had this fantasy of a quaint little alley or square located in Buckhead and dedicated solely to bijou-size retail shops that trade in gracious and unique wares. In this dream world, there would be a shop selling nothing but porcelain fruits, flowers and vegetables, and another storefront devoted to traditional copper cookware. Formal French passementerie of the kind once favored by Marie Antoinette and her ilk would be represented in this retail row, as would a shop filled with food items from around the world. (Think tea from Fortnum & Mason and mustards from Fauchon.) And the so-called big-box retailers would be banned, with independent retailers instead ruling the roost. Sadly, my fantasy could never work in the real world, because first, who else but I and a few other shoppers would frequent the porcelain fruit store, and second, how many independent retailers could actually afford to lease space in Buckhead? The old Buckhead was filled with mom-and-pop stores. There were independently-owned hardware stores, bookstores and cookware shops, not to mention shops that dealt in novelties, sewing implements, toys, coins and stamps. How many of you remember that Lenox Square once had a toy and hobby shop, a pet shop and a stamp and coin store? As far as I know, all three were independently owned. Alas, Buckhead became a victim of its success, and with land now worth a fortune and retail rents rising, mom-and-pop stores are facing an uphill battle. And with Amazon growing more powerful by the day, even the national chains are having a tough time of it. But all is not lost. The good news is that Buckhead and the rest of Atlanta still have a wonderful assortment of independent retailers. So the next time you’re looking for a new book, a set of sheets or a sterling silver tea service, go visit a local retailer. Not only will you be supporting your community, you just might discover something that you never knew you needed.

PERFECT BLEND Authenticity meets creativity at THE IBERIAN PIG’s new Buckhead concept Written by CLAIRE RUHLIN Photographed by DAVID CHRISTENSEN

A FIXTURE IN DECATUR FOR 10 YEARS, The Iberian Pig brought its Spanish-inspired menu to Buckhead in May with the opening of its new location in the Hanover Buckhead Village. It’s the first Buckhead restaurant for Castellucci Hospitality Group (CHG), whose concepts also include Bar Mercado, Cooks & Soldiers, Double Zero, Recess and Sugo. Like its Decatur counterpart, the two-story, 4,500-square-foot eatery evokes an old-world feel, thanks to design work by Elizabeth Ingram Studio that includes a sprawling bar, plush banquette seating and gold velvet curtains. “It was challenging to bring into a brand-new build-out that same character and old-world feel that we had in Decatur from an older building,” says executive chef John Castellucci. “Elizabeth Ingram did an amazing job embracing the raw concrete but also making it feel super Spanish.” The menu also balances classic Spanish with contemporary creativity. In addition to The Iberian Pig’s classic selection of tapas, meat-and-cheese boards and Jamón Ibérico (the restaurant’s namesake), the Buckhead space offers a new raciones section of larger, but still shareable, plates that can also function as entrees. While bold, umami flavors are certainly prevalent, guests will also find a mix of fresh, lighter options and vegetable and seafood dishes. “We really balanced the menu out, still having those rich, bold flavors that we’re known for, but we also wanted to add a couple lighter things to our Buckhead menu,” Castellucci said. “You can really pick and choose how you want to create your dining experience.”

Pulpo a la Plancha blends cast ironseared octopus, sobrassada sausage, chickpea and olive.

THE 2019

CASHIERS DESIGNER SHOWHOUSE JULY 25– AUG U S T 4 PRESENTED BY THE CASHIERS HISTORICAL SOCIETY

OPENING NIGHT SOCIAL Wednesday, July 24 • 6 p.m. – 10 p.m. SHOWHOUSE HOURS Thursday, July 25 – Sunday, August 4 • 9 a.m. – 4 p.m.

GENERAL INFORMATION The Cashiers Designer Showhouse (CDS) is presented each year by the Cashiers Historical Society in partnership with Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles. Proceeds benefit the Cashiers Historical Society’s mission and cultural programming. This year, the Cashiers Designer Showhouse welcomes you to the beautiful Black Rock Preserve. The cozy and rustic getaway cabin sits on 28 acres of farm land and the former Cosper’s Flower Farm. All of this beautiful acreage is nestled at the base of the looming Black Rock mountain. This Showhouse is truly a return to the roots of what it means to be in the Western North Carolina mountains. Inspired by the raw beauty of the property and the rustic cabin, designers from near and far have worked tirelessly to turn this home and stable house into a sight to behold! The two-week run-of-show will also be full of demos, live paintings, fly fishing guides and many more festivities you won’t want to miss. Kicking off the Showhouse is the July 24th Horse Cove Social and Preview Night party, followed by the rest of our special events, with the Showhouse coming to a close on August 4th. We hope you enjoy “A Day in the Country” with this year’s Cashiers Designer Showhouse!

PARKING Parking for the 2019 Showhouse is on site at the Horse Cove location. The address is 144 Cove Rd., Highlands NC 28741. Signage will be all over the road to let patrons know where to park. There will also be signs for designated parking areas on the property. There will be no shuttle services from Cashiers or Highlands since there is more than plenty space for parking on site.

LETTER FROM THE

LETTER FROM THE

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

CHAIRMAN OF 2019 SHOWHOUSE & CHS CHAIRMAN

As the executive director of the Cashiers Historical Society, it is my honor and pleasure to welcome attendees to the 22nd annual Cashiers Designer Showhouse. This 11-day fundraiser is full of exciting demonstrations from special guests and artisans, handcrafted work by the talented designers, and signature gifts from our wonderful sponsors. Our organization is primarily funded by the Cashiers Designer Showhouse, and through your support, we continue to fulfill our mission of preserving the heritage of the Cashiers Valley through education, stewardship and advocacy. This year’s showhouse takes place at the majestic Black Rock Preserve in Horse Cove. Nestled at the foot of the mighty Black Rock sits a rustic cabin that designers from all over have worked tirelessly to transform into a mountain showhouse. We are so incredibly grateful to Carolyn McCall and her family for letting us utilize their home and property. I would like to sincerely thank all the dedicated people involved in the planning and designing of this event over the past year. The 2019 Showhouse will be one of the most experiential Showhouses to date, with hands-on demos, craftsmen, artisans, sportsmen and designers practicing their trades live. We invite you to join us as we embark on A Day in the Country.

For me the term “magical mountains” is no better defined than from the point of view of “Horse Cove.” Just look up! See the crazy quilts of deciduous and evergreen trees stitched onto the elevations that protect and shield the cove. Our particular vantage for the 2019 Cashiers Designers Showhouse has the dramatic Black Rock as its backdrop. Inspiration for all who come here . . . designers, artists, gardeners, nature lovers alike. It was a special and spiritual place for Aboriginal Americans. In the 1860’s both Confederate and Union soldiers quartered their horses here. In the early 20th century, artists from the lowcountry of Georgia and South Carolina found their “mountain muse” amongst the cove’s woods and pastures. We hope that you find your muse, your inspiration at this magical mountain place. All of us at Cashiers Historical Society welcome you and sincerely thank you for your support. Kirk Moore

We look forward to seeing you there! Many Thanks, Kyle Dreher 12

HONORARY GUEST

HONORARY RESIDENT CHEF

ABOUT ERIC ROSS

ABOUT CHEF DAN SILO

Eric Ross is one of the leading interiors designers in the South. He has been decorating and designing rooms all his life, but professionally for over 20 years. In 2009, he began his eponymous firm working with clients in Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia and places beyond. When asked about his design style, Ross explained, “My personal design style is traditional, but my job isn’t to design what I like—it’s to listen to clients and help them discover what they love and respond to. I do believe that ALL good design is informed by the past.”

Dan Silo is greatly inspired by his childhood in the Adirondack Mountains, the country diners he visited with his family on hiking and cross-country skiing trips throughout northern New York, Quebec and Vermont, and by his great and greatgreat grandmothers, who were both lumber camp cooks in the early 1900s. His hearty country-comfort food is based on whole animal butchery, game meats, freshwater fish, old school preservation techniques, root vegetables, meat pies, sausages and an undying obsession with maple syrup.

Ross’ designs have been featured in numerous magazines but most notably have been the Traditional Home, Southern Style, Southern Lady/Southern Cottages, and The Cottage Journal. Blending the traditional styles of the past with modern technique has set Ross as one of the most prominent designers in the region and beyond. He has also published a book titled Enduring Southern Homes, in which he walks the reader through his design styles through various colonial, antebellum and modern designed homes.

The name of Silo’s new Asheville restaurant, Sawhorse, comes from his memories of his family’s log cabin in the Adirondacks, where there was almost always a sawhorse around supporting anything from tools and lumber to canoes or kayaks. According to Silo: “The name was chosen to reflect the essential and utilitarian character of the food and the ambiance of the restaurant itself. A sawhorse is not an object of art but a tool necessary to complete a myriad of projects both artistic and functional...beautiful in its simplicity, and a timeless representation of place.”

The Cashiers Historical Society is thrilled to welcome Eric Ross as the 2019 Cashiers Designer Showhouse Honorary Guest designer!

The Cashiers Historical Society is pleased and honored to welcome Chef Dan Silo to the Cashiers Designer Showhouse as the resident chef for the event!

ABOUT THE OWNER AND PROPERTY Carolyn Ritchey McCall grew up playing in woods and creeks. The child of an Army doctor, her family moved often but despite the changing landscape, her love of nature followed. Eventually landing in the Atlanta area, McCall earned a degree in Fine Arts and began her career as an artist creating works of abstract landscape with various psychological overtones. She was exclusively represented for over a decade by the preeminent Fay Gold Gallery. As her family grew and the family’s food and wine business expanded, she traveled the world exploring new terrain—carrying always a sense of awe and respect for the natural wonder of each destination. When she discovered Horse Cove in 1997, it captured her heart as arrestingly as had South Africa’s wine country. She acquired the old Norris farm and brought her family up from Atlanta on weekends. As time progressed, she identified neglected and subdivided properties in the area, and resolved to rescue them from the threat of development, working closely with the Highlands Cashiers Land Trust for the last 10 years to preserve over 100 acres of land. Carolyn resides in Horse Cove with her horses, and still works daily to preserve its unique beauty. The culmination and experience of life and landscape has brought her to the mountains of North Carolina, defending forests, creeks and open land. 14

THE CASHIERS HISTORICAL SOCIETY was established in 1996 to preserve and protect the village identity and heritage of Cashiers Valley through education, stewardship and advocacy. Each year we produce and present the following: Cashiers Designer Showhouse is our largest fundraising endeavor. Your generosity and support of this important event help us continue and further our mission. Here are just a few of the highlights from the past year and what’s ahead at CHS: Heritage Apple Day: In early spring, a talented team of staff, volunteers and experts host this daylong event. Attendees learn how to plant and groom heritage trees, helping to ensure the livelihood of the varieties that nourished our forefathers. We provide the rootstocks and scions used for grafting at no charge, and everyone gets to take home a tree to plant in their yard or garden. This year’s event also featured live music, kids’ activities and a photo booth for attendees to capture the memories of the day. Zachary-Tolbert House Reopens: That’s right—we’ve finished the restoration of our beloved landmark and are excited to invite the public back for tours and activities centered in and around the home. Visitors are also invited to peruse the fourth phase of our Places & Faces series, which will be on exhibit in the house for the next year. New Lecture Series: The Cashiers Historical Society calendar for 2019 featured a new historical lecture series at the Dowden Pavilion on the Zachary-Tolbert grounds. Each speaker will discuss a topic historically relevant to the Cashiers Valley. This year’s featured speakers include local historian Jane Nardy, registered landscape architect Mary Palmer Dargan, and Executive Director of The Land Trust, Dr. Gary Wein. Visit our website for the full event calendar. Something Old, Something New: This year also saw the return of our iconic logo featuring the scrollwork and leaf pattern. We’ve reinstituted the logo as part of our commitment to preserving our heritage as well as that of Cashiers. You may notice, though, that we’ve given it a new home to live in. Visit our new, easy-to-navigate website at CashiersHistoricalSociety.org and take a look around!

ERIC ROSS

Melanie Couch and Nancy Need developed a lasting friendship while finding shared interests when attending The University of Georgia. Couch perfected her knowledge of textiles and design while Need found her passion in Studio Art. Each pursued the field of design during their post graduate years—Couch with House Dressing Interior Design of Gainesville, Georgia and Need with Cullen & Company Interior Design of Athens. The two were reunited years later when their families moved to the mountains of Highlands, North Carolina. Both Couch and Need realized the need for an “understated-elegance” interior design group in the area and conceived Spruce Interiors, LLC. They share a love for blue and white, updated traditional spaces, the majestic landscape and climate of the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau.

Focusing primarily on residential design, Joan Anderson believes that the home environment should be centered around the lifestyle of the owner——livable and timeless. After moving to Cashiers full time, she opened a retail design studio, Joan Anderson Interiors, located in the heart of the village. Joan Anderson Interiors is pleased to join the Cashiers Design Showhouse for the fifth year. Anderson moved to Cashiers in 2012 and opened an interior design and retail shop where she has enjoyed meeting hundreds of great clients. Joan Anderson Interiors specializes in unusual and elegant lamps, rugs, and accessories. Whether it’s new construction or any size remodel, Anderson is always happy to help with a timeless design you will love for many years to come.

Acorns Director of Retail, Holly Laughridge may have received much of her design experience while on the job for the past nine years, helping owner Angela Williams design and decorate large parts of Old Edwards Inn, Half-Mile Farm, and 200 Main as well as the recent Old Edwards Club renovation. However, she says that her interest in interior design came about much earlier. “My father built furniture for Ethan Allen and Henredon when I was growing up. He converted our basement to an upholstery shop and often experimented with our own home furnishings. I was taught from a very young age to appreciate craftsmanship and quality, as well as intelligent design.”

Interior Designer Eric Ross has more than 20 years of design experience. With a background in bespoke furnishings and a penchant for traditional fabrics and antiques, Ross creates dynamic home interiors that blend comfortable Southern living with timeless style. Blue-and-white porcelain, mixing fabrics on furniture, statement print curtains, artistic wall groupings and tasteful displays of homeowners’ personal collectibles star among Ross’ signature look, which celebrates the most appealing tenets of Southern design. Ross enlivens spaces and works magic with his refined Southern aesthetic. His lush designs reflect his traditional style as well as the passions and preoccupations of his clients. His work has been published in Traditional Home, Southern Style, Southern Lady, The Cottage Journal and many other publications. His debut book, Enduring Southern Homes, published by Gibbs Smith in March 2019, is already in its second printing. Ross lives in Nashville, Tennessee with his wife Ruthann, daughter Julianne, and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Prince Darby and Dixie.

It is that craftsmanship and sense of timeless design that Holly wants to share with the public via this year’s Showhouse. It ties nicely into what she loves most about working at Acorns. “Helping a guest turn their vision into something tangible is so rewarding. Selecting items for Acorns that people love and want to purchase for themselves is just the start to that adventure. I like being their guide along the way.”

COLOR STORY Lee Kleinhelter and T.S. Adams Studio inject a historic Dutch Colonial home with happy hues and classic character Written by CLAIRE RUHLIN Photographed by JEFF HERR Styled by ELEANOR ROPER

Energetic Burst Interior designer Lee Kleinhelter incorporated pops of red-orange into the dining room of this circa-1935 home through velvet-upholstered chairs (sourced from Parc Monceau and re-covered in a Knoll velvet) and Stephanie Henderson’s Target painting. Overhead, an antique chandelier adds a classic touch. The drapery is Miles Redd for Schumacher in Capri.

Colonial Charm opposite In the foyer, a Carleton V’s Gatsby wallcovering, sourced through Ainsworth-Noah, echoes the front door’s vibrant blue hue, which Kleinhelter used as the jumping point for the home’s color story. below Kleinhelter worked with architecture firm T.S. Adams Studio and landscape architect John Howard to thoughtfully bring this 1935 Dutch Colonial home into the 21st century.

WHEN AN ATLANTA FAMILY decided to downsize to a circa-1935 Dutch Colonial in Buckhead, they were faced with a challenge: maintain the home’s historic charm while updating the residence to suit the needs of three teenagers and two active dogs. The first order of business: adding on a new master suite, editing the molding and lighting details, and gutting the bathrooms to refresh the home for the 21st century. “Bringing everything up to date was the main focus,” says interior designer Lee Kleinhelter, who worked alongside architecture firm T.S. Adams Studio to complete the property’s remarkable transformation. “This project was the perfect play on tying in old, beautiful antiques in a fresh, fun new way. And with their busy lifestyle, making sure we were using every inch to function for their needs was very important.”

Purposeful & Practical The kitchen is “headquarters of the house,” Kleinhelter says, so it needed to be both functional and streamlined. She eliminated ornate hardware on some of the room’s nonfunctioning cabinetry, painting lower cabinets Benjamin Moore’s Polo Blue to tie in with the rest of the home. The light fixtures are through Pieces. opposite Kleinhelter, who is also the owner of Buckhead interiors boutique Pieces, in the bright entry foyer.

6/24/19 4:23 PM


Per the homeowners’ request for “happy, bold pops,” Kleinhelter infused the abode with an array of saturated, bright hues. When creating the overall color palette, she began with the front door, which is painted Benjamin Moore’s California Blue. “I’m a huge believer that the interior and exterior should feel like the same story, not a departure,” Kleinhelter says. “That’s what designing is all about. It’s not just a table or a lamp, it’s a story that starts at the exterior and ties through the entire house in a well-edited way that fits the client’s needs.” Kleinhelter continued the door’s deep blue hue into the foyer—which is swathed in Carleton V’s Gatsby wallcovering—as well as throughout the home, painting the kitchen’s lower cabinetry a deep blue to stand out against the white marble backsplash and island. And because the kitchen is open to the family room and in close proximity to the entry and porte-cochère, creating easy flow and purposeful storage was paramount. Kleinhelter achieved a streamlined effect by eliminating hardware on nonfunctioning cabinetry and opting for a simple palette of black, white and dark blue. 59

Mellow Mix above In the living room, chartreuse Deco chairs make a statement, playing off colorful French fabric pieces that were framed and mounted on the back wall. opposite Sunlight streams into the family room, which is where everyone congregates, says Kleinhelter. A pair of tufted chairs upholstered in a Schumacher fabric anchor the space, which is balanced by a rustic coffee table and pair of vintage club chairs in a Kravet leather.

To complement the blues throughout the home, Kleinhelter also incorporated contrasting red-orange tones, which were partially inspired by the homeowner’s vivid collection of artwork. In the dining room, for example, antique dining chairs re-covered in a fiery velvet (one of which also appears in the foyer) stand out against a neutral backdrop. “We love how this is unexpected but doesn’t feel modern—it’s all in the way you use color, finishes and textures.” notes Kleinhelter. “Being an older home we didn’t want to lose all of the charm or make it feel too new.” Indeed, a mix of organic materials and the client’s antique accessories—a pair of vintage club chairs in the family room and a vintage Louis Vuitton trunk coffee table paired with Deco chairs in the living room, for example—anchor the home to its more traditional architecture. “It’s all a mix,” Kleinhelter says. “There is no formula; you just have to know how to layer and edit. Our client trusted us on every detail and we were all on the same page, which made the entire process so much fun.” See Resources, Back of Book. 61

DOWNSIZING IS A GOAL for many retirees, but it didn’t make sense for a couple with a large extended family. Instead, they built a five-bedroom home on a verdant golf course in Duluth with plenty of space for their adult daughter and her family, who all have their own bedrooms there. There was just one catch: “This is my client’s dream house, but they wanted it to feel more modern,” says interior designer, Kristin Kong. To tone down the traditional architecture, the designer painted the walls and moldings throughout in a crisp shade of white, and she brought in new ebony-stained hardwood flooring that was “museumlike,” Kong says. She also redesigned the home’s two fireplaces. In the great room, the contemporary firebox is surrounded by sleek floor-to-ceiling porcelain slabs flanked by vertical wooden beams, a striking focal point for an Italian sectional sofa and a pair of 1980s-inspired chairs covered in a funky patterned fabric. “This home is subdued, but there are some great patterned pieces and fun pillows,” Kong explains. “We built around them.”

Face Lift New marble countertops, pendants from Visual Comfort and a quartet of stools from Wayfair lend the kitchen an updated feel.

For example, the patterned fabric on a pair of plush lounge chairs inspired the pink and purple hues in the vibrant prayer room. And a rounded leather banquette with a cheerful white and yellow patterned seat back adds a splash of color to the classic white kitchen. Over the round, white lacquered breakfast table, a contemporary brass and glass light fixture, “sort of disappears,” Kong says. In the formal dining room, by contrast, a jaw-dropping bubble chandelier makes a big statement over a wooden table surrounded by crimson velvet-covered chairs that coordinate with the patterned draperies. At the far end of the room, a gold leafed wallcovering highlights a wall niche. “Every room has something that sparkles,” Kong says. 68

Indeed, a shimmery throw pillow elevates the upholstered headboard and simple white bedding in the enveloping master suite, where a pair of velvet channel-tufted chairs pull up to a large, round shag-covered ottoman. Floor-to-ceiling draperies enhance the sense of coziness. “It’s soft and serene,” Kong says. “When you’re not using too many bold colors, you need to layer in textures.” Kong’s clients are thrilled about the outcome of the nine-month project, and they’ve enjoyed sharing it with guests, recently hosting family from India for an extended stay. “They feel very proud that they were able to do a house like this,” Kong says. “I feel so fortunate to have a job where I get to help give people their dream home.” See Resources, Back of Book.

A AS STIMULATING AS LIFE in the city can be, the promise of more space and a bigger yard convinced newlyweds Brandyn Chapman and Ashley Bothwell Chapman to swap their industrial Old Fourth Ward loft for a much larger home in Marietta. To help them furnish the space—and bring in more color than they might have if left to their own devices—they recruited HGTV star and dear friend Brian Patrick Flynn. “They wanted to infuse their rock and roll-like style into this very traditional house,” Flynn says. For an example, look no further than the front parlor, which Flynn reimagined as a spot for the music-loving couple and their three older children to practice their instruments, which double as decoration. Flynn has been present while they practice: “It was legit,” he says. A printed blue-and-white grasscloth wallcovering adds a modern feel, complementing the striped rug and comfortable furnishings, including two pairs of chairs— one skirted, the other bamboo with cane fretwork—around a more contemporary round cocktail table. “Putting a pattern on the wall is the easiest way to transform a room,” Flynn says. Proving his point, a blue-and-white ombré-patterned wallcovering makes a dazzling backdrop for a round brass-and-stone table surrounded by white slipcovered chairs in the dining room. Flanking the fireplace, a pair of glass-faced white-painted cabinets displays pottery and dishware in complementary hues. “The architecture is perfectly balanced, so we embraced it,” Flynn says.

The same goes for the family room, where matching white sofas surround a tufted leather-topped ottoman in front of the fireplace. Covered in a tactile, blue wallcovering, the backs of the built-in shelving coordinate with the throw pillows and table lamps. A spiky black chandelier adds visual tension. “Every room has a little bit of edge,” Flynn says. Indeed, the designer painted the office walls a dark, smoky gray-brown, modernizing the traditional wall moldings. The ambience is even cozier in the master suite, where framed Audubon prints—a reminder of the couple’s wedding at the Audubon House & Tropical Gardens in Key West—inspired a mossy green raffia wallcovering accented by colorful throw pillows. Naturally, Brandyn and Ashley are thrilled with the result, and Flynn is equally enthusiastic. “It was a challenge doing something this traditional, but we put a fresh spin on it,” Flynn says. “Nothing is too over the top, but every room is packed with color and personality.” See Resources, Back of Book.

WHEN IT COMES TO DECORATING, dabbling in a pattern or two is fun, but few have the bravado to dive in headfirst like the owner of this colorful Atlanta pied-à-terre. “What made this project so fun was that we rarely had to push the restraint button,” says interior designer Andrew Howard. “The client was really up for taking any sort of ‘risky’ fabric and using it not just on a pillow, but in a much bigger way.” It’s Howard’s knack for effortlessly combining intriguing patterns and colors that led the homeowner to seek him out. After having seen Howard’s work in a neighboring condo (which was previously featured in Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles’ May 2017 issue),

Color Story To make this bedroom’s structural column less conspicuous, Howard wrapped it in a Phillip Jeffries wallcovering. A desk by Palecek and chair by Mr. and Mrs. Howard for Sherrill Furniture offers the homeowner a quiet spot to work.

“In any project, I like to have one unifying color and then have the rest of the room evolve from there.” —Andrew Howard

she tasked the designer with creating a space that reflected her Western roots and incorporated unique pieces of art she had collected during her world travels. “Given her love of art, I really wanted the fabrics to have an artistic quality to them. And if you were to frame them, they might look like real paintings,” notes Howard. It’s a concept that really comes to life in the combination living-and-dining room, where painterly patterns grace nearly every inch of space. The effect is never dizzying though, thanks to variations in scale and a focused color palette. “In this room, the pattern on the draperies has a tighter scale than the squares on the rug which helps keep the look from becoming overwhelming,” explains Howard. “And in any project, I like to have one unifying color and then have the rest of the room evolve from there.” Howard was also mindful of the homeowner’s desire to decorate with intention. Textiles and accents weren’t selected solely for aesthetics, but also for “the tale they tell,” he says. So in a nod to her former residence out West, window treatments in the den resemble a Western tapestry while a unique woven headboard in a guest room sparks a similar story.

Cool Contrast opposite Pierre Frey’s embroidered Tasmania fabric served as the starting point for the guest bedroom’s design. To visually juxtapose its organic nature, Howard selected Zak + Fox’s more structured windowpane fabric, Postage, in olive green for the draperies. The benches are by Lee Industries.

“We decided early on to incorporate some Western touches, but I didn’t think it needed to feel like an old saloon,” says Howard. “So, there was a very fine line to walk where we made it feel more artsy and urban, and reflective of what’s going on in downtown Atlanta, which is amazing, but at the same time an eclectic mix of things that could be from all over the world.” She travels so much and sees so many different things, that I had to keep up with her,” he adds with a laugh. “It was a really fun experience to design for someone who isn’t afraid to push the envelope.” See Resources, Back of Book. 91

GIVING AN OLD HOUSE A SECOND ACT can be one of life’s greatest pursuits. This is especially true for Atlanta native Cathy Austin, whose educated eye and history with these homeowners made her a natural fit to revive their 1930s Georgian treasure in Washington, D.C. Austin’s clients, now busy executives with three active children, first called on the Charlotte-based designer nearly two decades ago to outfit the interiors of their first home, followed by two more projects to suit the needs of their growing family. “Watching my clients’ tastes evolve from wanting what their parents had to discovering their own design aesthetic has been a joy,” remarks Austin. “All of

their design experiences have helped them define what they desired for this project.” While the stately façade of the residence is decidedly traditional, the interiors are a well-mannered mix of classic and contemporary. A renovation sensitive to the historical integrity of the house allowed for the addition of modernized spaces, including “the kitchen and family room, the heart of the home, which center around the original brick fireplace,” Austin explains. Calming hues—such as Farrow & Ball’s Light Blue in the family room—elevate the living quarters into a serene oasis where the couple unwinds from their demanding professional lives.

Sleek Scheme In the kitchen, quartzite backsplash and countertops take center stage, acting like abstract art for the space. Pendant lights from The Urban Electric Co. lend an elegant feel while the Galbraith & Paul Roman shade fabric sets a lively tone.

“We worked in the same way that a curator at a museum pulls colors from a painting for the background of the walls,” the designer says of selecting the soothing tones. Indeed, the family’s growing collection of commissioned pieces, acquired under the knowledgeable guidance of Austin, was the starting point for each room. Works by New Orleans-based Amanda Talley and Charleston artist Kate Long Stevenson hint at the home’s subtle Southern sensibilities. Much of the home’s textiles and furnishings were culled exclusively at ADAC—from porcelain Christopher Spitzmiller table lamps (through Ainsworth-Noah) gracing the living room to a kicky Lindsay Cowles wallpaper (through Bradley) bedecking the powder room. But Austin’s most gracious interpretation of her clients’ lifestyle shines in the library, a lacquered jewel box, where a pair of shagreen desks offers a serene spot for husband and wife to work from home. At the end of each day, the family finds respite in the surroundings tailored just for them. “We brought the house to life in a youthful way that reflected how they live,” Austin says of penning a new, more modern, chapter for the storied home. See Resources, Back of Book. 96

COLORFUL CHARACTERS

ON A RECENT TRIP TO ATLANTA, Bunny Williams commented on the use of color in rooms, and when color speaks loudest in a room versus when the furnishings do. It’s a subtle hand, after all, that can blend period antiques, hand-carved gilt frames with soft patinas, and interesting objects with harmonious hues. Yet Bunny is masterful at melding patinated antiques into rooms with butter-yellow walls, and she does “blue and white” with the best of them. But how does the discussion shift when bold colors are the focal point in a room? We seem to be having a design moment wherein we’re swept up in color and pattern. Every piece of Grandma’s is encapsulated in boldly-colored lacquer while dazzling bolts of fabrics and wallpapers swath rooms. I love color and pattern, though I confess I’m partial to subtler shades and styles. I never liked the trend of the red dining room that opened up to a yellow living room that led to a blue kitchen, and the never-ending crayon box of colors that suffocated homes—a decorating style that the great Billy Baldwin said “showed no restraint, no 108

discipline and no continuity.” That said, what I love most in any room is substance, and substance includes infusing color while acquiring great things—as Bunny (and Lauren DeLoach, above) aptly achieve. I love the rich blue of an 18th-century French resist quilt and the oxblood red in 19th-century chinoiserie lacquer. I’m equally captivated by the complex series of greens found in both faience d’Apt and alkaline-glazed Piedmont pottery. Every home needs a Swans Island blanket made from hand-dyed yarns in earthy tones of chocolate and gray, while the sleek lipstick-red Barcelona lounge by Mies van der Rohe remains iconic. Regardless of century or continent, color and patina add depth and dimension beyond paint and fabric. Carry on with color! Roll out the fabrics and wallcoverings! As Baldwin famously noted, “When you want to transform a room into an entirely different animal, change the color; however, one of my favorite colors is no color at all.” Dear reader, how long do you think it will be before the next all-white phase returns?
