FROM THE EDITOR

FROM THE ARCHIVES Celebrating AH&L’s 40th anniversary year

on the move NO MATTER HOW MANY years go by, autumn in Atlanta continues to leave me in awe. It’s not uncommon to find me out and about more than normal during this time of year, whether I’m working from The Chastain patio on a Friday morning, reading a book on the lawn at Piedmont Park or getting goodies from the Peachtree Road Farmers Market on Saturdays. The atmosphere feels lighter, which inevitably encourages us—and our homes—to live happier. And as we begin the busy entertaining season, our November issue leans into this theme of a happy, harmonious home. In Buckhead, Susan Ferrier brings the bones of her clients’ house to life with simple

yet impactful changes (page 38), and nearby, Lauren DeLoach infuses tasteful palettes of pattern and color to create a family home that’s plush with personality (page 52). At Peachtree Hills Place, Lauren Davenport helps her longtime clients’ new condominium live large in their next era of living (page 66). The change in season means that Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles is opening the doors to the Home for the Holidays Designer Showhouse this month. Located near Atlanta, the California-cool house breathes a new air of sophistication into the neighborhood. Join us for tours starting on November 16!

My favorite these days is BillecartSalmon brut rosé—the perfect accompaniment for everything from sushi and savory pastries to chocolate and other sweets.” —Keith Robinson

On top of that, cosmopolitans are easy, refreshing and tasty. It’s the perfect conversation drink.” —Canaan Marshall 15

COMMON GROUND Situated in the heart of Downtown Alpharetta, all-day dining destination TBB 122 marries local ingredients with European influences Written by EVAN EDWARDS

Photographed by DAVID CHRISTENSEN

CHARMED BY AN 1850’s abode that once occupied the restaurant’s verdant property, Michele Sedgwick, owner of Alpharetta’s TBB 122, had always dreamed of opening an eatery there. “I was immediately taken with this magical property and all of the trees, outdoor spaces and possibilities,” says Sedgwick. The home ended up falling into disrepair, and after many inquiries, Sedgwick purchased the land in 2019. Also the brains behind Theo’s Brother’s Bakery in Crabapple, Sedgwick joined forces with her daughter, Peyton, to introduce a peaceful, all-day dining experience serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, with brunch on Saturdays and Sundays. From caffeinated sips and housemade pastries to delectable entrées, TBB 122 is ideal for all occasions. “The menu is a direct reflection of the common interests Michele and I share,” says executive chef 34

JR Bearden. “From our first conversation, we discovered that we both possess a fervent passion for simple yet delicious preparations.” Channeling influences from Italy, France and Portugal, TBB 122’s culinary team is always “seeking new flavor profiles and building on classics with the best ingredients North Georgia has to offer,” says Bearden. For breakfast and lunch, opt for the avocado toast, daily quiche or pressed pork sandwich on TBB ciabatta bread. The dinner menu boasts a selection of seasonal dishes like baked oysters, agnolotti made with short rib as well as a hearty half chicken. Pair your meal with one of their refreshing drinks, like the lavender-infused house cocktail dubbed “Mrs. Bensen,” an homage to the original homeowner. Designed by Sedgwick in partnership with architect Lew Oliver, the interior of

TBB 122 exudes a warmth that encourages you to sit and stay awhile. “[Oliver] was the perfect choice as he is an avid historian, but also very forward-thinking and similarly inspired by European design,” says Sedgwick. With exposed wooden beams overhead, the original fireplace stands tall in the dining room. Additionally, a large communal table as well as adequate bar seating act as perfect resting spots for coffee dates and work meetings. The indoor and outdoor spaces also play host to various events, like live music on the patio every Thursday night and wine dinners. From the food and drinks to the comfortable, chic seating areas, Sedgwick strives to create the ultimate dining venture. “Above all, I want guests to have an authentic experience,” she says. “I want them to feel they are somewhere beyond Alpharetta—somewhere comfortable, welcome and inspired.” tbb122.com

Lasting Looks

SusanFerrier.indd 41

DESIGNED BY ARCHITECT James Means in the 1970s, the charming twostory Dutch Colonial in Buckhead seemed like an ideal spot for a stylish couple to raise their young family. Envisioning a sophisticated blend of classical and contemporary influences, they recruited interior designer Susan Ferrier to help them make it their own. “They wanted a warm, beautiful family home but didn’t want to do an extensive renovation,” says Ferrier. “This project is a great way to show what you can do with an existing space aesthetically.” Replacing the kitchen island’s concrete countertop with a gleaming

white quartzite, for example, instantly established a fresher, more modern milieu. The designer also eliminated a bank of upper cabinetry in favor of a sleek stainless-steel shelf that crosses the large, gridded window over the sink. “The space is fresher and brighter,” she says. “I brought it forward in time.” Indeed, paint and fabric play outsized roles in the redesign. Dark green velvet drapery plays off the light green walls in the formal living room while calling attention to the high, beamed ceilings. A metal fender with a tufted leather cushion surrounds the traditional stone fireplace mantel, adding to a harmonic ensemble 41

The walls and drapes—embellished with a charming multicolored blue ball fringe—are upholstered in Lewis & Wood fabric.

BALANCING ELEGANCE AND serenity with a tangible sense of comfort, interior designer Lauren DeLoach managed some genuine alchemy when she transformed this elegant Tudor estate in Buckhead for a young family of five. Though originally conceived in 2003 by architect Stan Dixon, the home has a timeless quality thanks to DeLoach’s reliance on heritage antiques. “I am a big fan of antiques and brown furniture in general,” she confides. “I am always trying to use something that has some patina and history to ground a space.” Part of the home’s soothing vibe is undoubtedly due to DeLoach leaning in to Scandinavian and Northern European touches, including whimsical trim on floor-to-ceiling curtains, original art and white- and blue-stained weathered antique chairs, like the ones in the open, airy breakfast room. A reproduction dining table gives the space an immediate informality, its round shape amenable to conversation.

In the Details

Amid two sconces from Visual Comfort & Co., a vintage screen demands attention inside the elegant dining room. The woven paper wallcovering is from Thibaut and the gold leaf chandelier is from Ella Home.

MOVING INTO A NEW HOME comes with the opportunity to reevaluate, take a hard look at your collections and determine what items really mean the most. For Atlanta empty nesters downsizing to Peachtree Hills Place, designer Lauren Davenport of Davenport Designs, Ltd. embraced the task of disassembling two homes she had previously helped design for the clients, editing and combining pieces to create a new oasis that feels like the best of both. Shopping their second home in St. Simons and their primary residence in Atlanta, Davenport and her clients went room by room evaluating needs and wants for their new home. “We considered what we could use and what items the owners truly loved, while deciding which pieces they could hand down to their two daughters,” says Davenport. After taking inventory, Davenport worked out a furniture plan on paper. Well-appointed rooms in both houses were split up and redistributed. “We broke up the old designs and moved pieces to where they would work best in this space,” she says. For instance, the French commode in the foyer used to belong in a living room. That same room’s chandelier was formerly one of a pair that hung in the kitchen. The screen with the aviary scene that takes pride of position in the dining room was culled from a hallway. Occasional tables pulled from here and there serve as end tables in the keeping room. Larger collections, such as the Florentine trays now hanging in the bath and the tole trays in the living room, were divided and spread

ABOUT the showhouse SITUATED NEAR CHASTAIN PARK, this 12,500-square-foot California-contemporary masterpiece serves as the sublime 2023 Home for the Holidays Showhouse. Castro Design Studio, in its first Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles showhouse, partnered with builder Pradera Group and Kit Castaldo Design on a soft modern home with impeccable detail and lofty spaces throughout. Clean lines, geometric shapes, top-of-the-line finishes and a sleek exterior offer the ultimate in luxury living. The covered stucco entryway presents a twist on the traditional front porch, leading guests to an oversized steel pivot door that matches the entry’s scale and reveals the stairwell and grand family room. Abundant windows and overscaled glass emphasize indooroutdoor connectivity in grand and cozy spaces. A two-story window bank displays the main staircase, which is suspended in dramatic fashion. In the great room, 13-foot-tall bifold doors open the entire wall to the pool terrace. The study beckons with its glass-filled setting and coved ceiling. Interior finishes such as plaster and cove ceilings speak to clean lines inside and out. The kitchen, designed by Kingdom Woodworks, features dual islands and openness to the great

room, with its 15-foot ceilings and a 6-foot fireplace, as well as, to the breakfast room, scullery and butler’s pantry. The pool, positioned between the covered porch and family room, also serves as a decorative element in the landscape, which extends to lawn space and trees serving as a natural privacy buffer. A separate outdoor kitchen and fireside porch complete the backyard entertaining spaces with a pool bath tucked into the main floor. The full basement, planned with a lounge area, wine room, game room/golf simulator, theater and gym, opens to a courtyard for practicing yoga on beautiful days. Situated on the second floor, the primary suite with a sitting area offers pool and backyard views. All six bedrooms have ensuite baths and walk-in closets, including his and hers closets in the primary suite. The low, sloped metal roof and stucco exterior seamlessly ties the home with a porte cochere and attached one-car garage, while a separate three-car garage is outfitted with lifts for additional vehicles. The showhouse features the talents of the Southeast’s top interior designers for this treasured holiday tradition. —Lori Johnston
