OF OUR RECENT CHRISTMAS SHOWHOUSE
Wow! What a busy and exciting time the past few months have been. Beginning in late October and lasting well into December, much of our staff’s time was spent on our annual Christmas House, a showcase of decorated rooms by top design professionals. This issue, in its entirety, is devoted to the two residences at The Mansion on Peachtree that served as this year’s “House.” For me, it truly became my home away from home, and I’ll admit that I quickly acclimated to the white-glove service and having my coffee in a to-go cup delivered on a silver tray. Now I know how Eloise felt living at The Plaza! Besides featuring the work of local designers, we were fortunate to have celebrated Los Angeles designer Hutton Clinton Smith Wilkinson join us this year. At our next Editorial Director twitter.com/clintonrsmith showhouse, I hope you will, too. Full Plate TOUR GOERS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO ENJOY THE SHOWHOUSE CAFÉ, 29 SPA AND MORE

TREND REPORT
NATURAL CURIOSITIES Our recent showhouse featured a mélange of accessories evoking the natural world: think colored glass, leather, quartz and lots (and lots) of gold. This assemblage of objets d’art, collected from rooms by different designers, proves this is no fleeting trend.
Amy D. Morris juxtaposed black walls and turquoise and orange velvets with a faux zebra skin fabric on the back of a porter’s chair for a wildly spectacular color combination—something you’ll see more of as the year continues. amydmorris.com
Couture-like details—such as Liz Williams’ use of rich blue passimenterie on a bolster pillow—will continue to gain in popularity in 2011. Rose Tarlow Melrose House fabrics available through Ainsworth-Noah & Associates, ainsworth-noah.com; lizwilliamsinteriors.com

This Jim Thompson silk—first seen at our showhouse before making its official debut in January at Maison et Objet in Paris—highlights the trend of pairing contemporary color combinations with centuries-old motifs, such as this modified Greek Key pattern. jimthompson.com
(trend alert) Fine art, such as this painting by Michael Dines, was evident throughout the showhouse. Works on paper, oils on canvas, drawings, photography and bronze sculptures rounded out the mix.

The contest will be held on our website, AtlantaHomesMag.com. There, you’ll also find the complete list of amazing prizes, as well as complete contest rules.

Oversize objects are here to stay. Susan Ferrier’s use of this large chandelier creates a focal point; however, its delicate arms and sensuous shape keep it from overpowering the space. mcalpineboothferrier.com

WRITTEN BY
Clement J. Ford As one of the first to recognize the lifestyle changes of Atlanta’s post-servant era, this architect adapted classic style to modern living without sacrificing detail Considered “a gentleman from start to finish,”native-born Atlanta architect Clement J. Ford continued the tradition of classical architecture that became the city’s hallmark early in the 20th century. While many of his peers shifted away from residential architecture and embraced modernism, Ford’s work helped keep the classical flame alive in Atlanta for four decades and— while his work may not have been as grand as some—played a significant role as Buckhead developed into the area that we now know. Born in 1907, Ford studied architecture at Georgia Tech before continuing his education at Columbia University, like other notable Atlanta architects such as Neel Reid and Philip Shutze. Ford then remained in New York and worked for nationally known architects William Lawrence Bottomley and Dwight James Baum before returning to Atlanta. In 1938, Ford received the Edward Langley Scholarship to travel and study public housing in Europe—the first Southerner to ever earn this award. Afterward, he returned to Atlanta and worked for Burge and Stevens, which was designing the nation’s first public housing project, Techwood Homes. No other Atlanta architect seems as connected to a piece of property as Ford is to 240 West Andrews Drive; he lived there for some 50 years, raising his family, building his home and running his business.When the Fords purchased the property, it had a small summerhouse built in the 1930s and another small structure that served as his studio. Ford designed and had the “big house” built in 1952. Over time, his office would move to the summerhouse and then to the basement of the main house. The house still stands today, although it’s been altered by two bay windows and other additions. The architect always operated a small practice, focusing on traditional residential design. With few employees and low overhead, Ford could accept Continued on page 78 14

clockwise, from left A Monterey-style house on Normandy Drive shows Ford’s mastery of eclectic styles. While not typical of Atlanta, this house is a great example of a Colonial Revival adaptation of the Monterey style. Ford’s senior yearbook picture at Georgia Tech. Designed in 1984, this Valley Road residence was one of Ford’s last commissions, and interior designer David Byars was an important collaborator on this house. A detail of the room’s mantel. The elegantly simple design on Andrews Drive is focused around a Georgian entry with segmented arch and transom. Ford designed this home on Knollwood Drive in 1951. The irregular, picturesque massing suggests an English manor or French eclectic inspiration. However, the interior has a formal Regency style. The eclectic design may have been inspired by Shutze’s McRae house (1927-29) on nearby Habersham Road.

ABOUT THE CATHEDRAL ANTIQUES SHOW 40 years of Passion and Compassion THE CATHEDRAL ANTIQUES SHOW BEGAN IN 1969 as a humble project to raise money for the Cathedral of St. Philip’s building fund. Throughout the years, it slowly developed into one of Atlanta’s most successful charitable fundraisers. After suspending the Antiques Show for extensive renovations to Child Hall for several years, the Episcopal Church Women voted to change their purpose and offer all of the proceeds to a carefully chosen and deserving charitable organization. With hundreds of volunteers, devoted leadership and support by the Church and the community, the Cathedral Antiques Show has given away three million dollars and put a spotlight on many different charities. It has become a true partnership between the Episcopal Church Women and the hardworking charitable organizations. By showcasing a different charity every year, the Antiques Show truly embodies the mission of the church in giving and outreach. Read more about this year’s selected organization, Hearts Everywhere Reaching Out for Children, Inc.’s (HERO) on page 30.

40th Annual Cathedral Antiques Show and Tour of Homes
IT IS AN HONOR AND A PRIVILEGE FOR US, as the 2011 Cathedral Antiques Show and Tour of Homes Co-Chairmen, to welcome you to this great event on the occasion of its 40th Anniversary. What began as a small fundraiser for the church building fund in 1969 has become a multi-faceted community event. Since 1984, all show proceeds have been donated “off the hill” and our efforts have contributed almost thee million dollars to Atlanta-area community organizations. It is a tribute to the passion of hundreds of volunteers, enthusiastic past chairmen, generous sponsors and the Cathedral clergy and staff that the Cathedral Antiques Show and Tour of Homes continues to thrive! This year we have selected H.E.R.O. for Children, Inc. to be the beneficiary of the event proceeds. Created in 2003 by two recent graduates of the University of Georgia, H.E.R.O.’s mission is to improve the quality of life for a group of children often overlooked in today’s society, those that are affected or infected by the HIV/AIDS virus. Such children struggle with hostility, grief and anxiety about the disease, and about trusting others with information that causes fear among many. H.E.R.O. provides support to these children through mentoring relationships, life skills training and a variety of “unforgettable” experiences. Your support of this year’s Show and Tour will enable H.E.R.O. to expand its outreach to these children in need. We are delighted to recognize Mrs. Catherine W. Dukeheart as this year’s Honorary Chairman. Kitty’s support of the Show and Tour over the years, as well the love and time she has given to many other community organizations is an ideal illustration of this year’s show theme, “Passion with a Purpose”. What a wonderful array of events we have waiting for you this year, at the doors of the Cathedral of St. Philip and beyond! On Sunday and Monday, January 30-31, we encourage you to explore five beautiful examples of elegant homes in the Buckhead area of Atlanta. Unique to the Tour this year is our own Inspiration House! The Deanery, located next to the Cathedral on Andrews Drive, has been renewed and restored by a group of talented designers and craftsmen with the goal of using just a few antiques in their spaces. The Inspiration House will be open during the Tour of Homes, the Antiques Show and the weekend following the Show. From Thursday, February 3 through Saturday, February 5, we invite you into our Cathedral home to explore and shop the world of antiques. We have a wonderful lineup of speakers, including Suzanne Kasler, William T. Baker, and Vince and Barbara Dooley, all eager to share their knowledge and expertise! Have a family heirloom you’ve wanted to have appraised? Our appraisal team will be available on Thursday and Friday to help you discover that unknown treasure. Come spend the day with us and enjoy a delectable lunch or complimentary afternoon tea during your visit! The Cathedral of St. Philip is a special home to both of us and our fellow parishioners. We thank you for visiting us during this very special anniversary event and for helping us to continue our tradition of working with passion for a purpose!

Cindra Brown and Susan Graham
Grace to you, and peace! ON BEHALF OF THE PEOPLE of the Cathedral Parish of St. Philip, I welcome you to the 2011 Cathedral Antiques Show. I also welcome you to this church, established in 1847 as the first Episcopal Church in Atlanta. We moved to our present location here in Buckhead in 1932, and we have grown tremendously since then. The Cathedral Antiques Show began 40 years ago as a small and seasonal fund-raiser, and is now so tremendous that it requires a year-round commitment. I thank the Episcopal Church Women of the Cathedral for starting this ministry which has now donated almost three million dollars to charitable organizations. This year I particularly thank Cindra Brown and Susan Graham, our Co-Chairs. They have organized hundreds of volunteers in creating this week-long event. I also salute Mrs. Catherine W. “Kitty” Dukehart, who is this year’s Honorary Chair. Kitty has demonstrated her love for this parish and its outreach efforts through her time and talents, as well as service in our community, for many years. Obviously, we delight in the antiques presented here, in a show considered one of the finest in the Southeast. But this effort involves more than antiques! This is also a wonderful ministry of outreach, supporting our wider community and this year we are especially celebrating “40 Years of Passion with a Purpose”! The proceeds this year have been designated for “H.E.R.O. for Children” (Hearts Everywhere Reaching Out for Children, Inc.). I urge you to learn more about this organization, founded in 2003 by two University of Georgia students who have been following their passion to improve the quality of life for children in Atlanta who are infected or affected by the HIV/AIDS virus. H.E.R.O. provides mentoring relationships, life skills training, recreational activities and a wide variety of life-expanding experiences to a group of children that is often overlooked and even shunned. I thank each of you for visiting the Cathedral today, and I invite you to return for other occasions of service and prayer. We are open daily, and this is truly a house of prayer for all people. Your presence helps us fulfill that mission of openness and hospitality! May God bless you always,
The Very Reverend Samuel G. Candler Dean of the Cathedral 40th annual

Long considered one of the most architecturally significant houses in Atlanta, this James Means masterpiece evokes the feel of a country home, yet is located just minutes from central Buckhead. Completed in 1966, the house was a labor of love for Means and the original homeowners, who together painstakingly researched the Virginia Tidewater style of the mid-18th century. Two of the grand James River plantations, Carter’s Grove (c.1755) and Westover (c. 1734), were especially influential. The bricks, floors and slate roof were reclaimed, giving the residence a feeling of great age. Recently, the new homeowners hired Norman Askins with project manager Michelle Moody to renovate and expand the house while maintaining the integrity of Means’ original design. The main rooms were basically untouched but the kitchen was reconfigured and sympathetic wings were added at both ends of the house. The interiors were updated by Virginian Ralph Harvard, who respected the original architectural details of the house while bringing it into the 21st century. Antique wallpaper from Williamsburg complements the original Chinese paper supplied by decorator David Richmond while comfortable furniture and bright paint colors make the house livable and cheery. Finally, Jeremy Smearman of Planters created a landscape design that enhances the new additions to the home.

This 1930s Georgian Revival is considered one of the most beautiful homes in Atlanta. The current homeowner fell in love with its charm and grace, and wanted to preserve that feel when she renovated in 2008. The architectural team of Spitzmiller & Norris was hired to bring out the home’s full potential. The traditional floor plan was enhanced for modern living by opening up the rooms to one another, improving the flow in the process. During the renovation, great care was given to preserving original features of the home, such as the elegant façade, the oak floors and mantels, and the large entry foyer with a sweeping staircase. The fresh architectural backdrop created the perfect setting for the magnificent decor throughout the house, with interiors by Susan Kingery and the homeowner. The colors are soft and soothing, the style traditional and elegant but with a comfortable feel. Many family antiques and collections, combined with eclectic pieces and vibrant art, give this house a look that is beautifully reflective of the owner. The renovation even created a greater connection between the interiors and the beautiful lot, increasing the views and the access to the outdoors. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the new screened porch, which wraps around the back of the house. Karla Morris and Monica Eith were responsible for the interiors of this space; with all the elegance of an indoor room, but with a rustic twist, it feels as if it’s always been there.

Designed by Clem Ford in the 1950s, this house has a presence from the first moment it’s seen at the top of the curving drive. The French Normandy design—with its asymmetrical façade, stone and stucco exterior, slate roof and simple ornamentation—combines a feeling of elegance with the strength characteristic of the architectural style. The clean lines of the exterior complement the soft traditional décor and detailed moldings of the interior. Exquisite antiques, collected by the homeowner, further enhance the feeling of a Buckhead masterpiece. Other one-of-a-kind touches include the beautiful serpentine staircase in the grand entrance of the house, as well as the light-filled family/living addition and kitchen renovation completed in 2003 by architect Ken Lynch. The 2.4-acre property completes the portrait of this stunning home, with its combination of wooded views and sculpted grounds. Renowned horticulturalist Ryan Gainey designed the landscape; the abundant flowers, terraced gardens and sophisticated hardscape create an intimate connection between the home and its environment.

The owners of this charming 1940s house fell in love with the residence for its wonderful street presence, great bones and gorgeous lot. All it needed was a careful renovation to make it function for a family with growing children. With architect Linda MacArthur at the helm—assisted by Jane Hollman on kitchen design and Debbie Anderson as design project manager—the goal was to maintain the street character of the house while making the inside more livable for an active family. The first floor was extensively reworked (largely within the original footprint) to create more of a connection between the interiors of the house and the outside views and to create more usable space. Interior designer Margaret Bosbyshell created the serene, uncluttered environment desired by the owners, beautifully incorporating antiques collected from travels all over the world. In 2010, the home’s living spaces were expanded with the addition of a separate pool house; its exterior blends seamlessly with the original house while the interior reflects the homeowner’s interest in contemporary, streamlined design. The original design team worked on this project, too, with the addition of Clary Bosbyshell on interior design.

INSPIRATION HOUSE & TOUR OF HOMES DO YOU NEED SOME NEW IDEAS ON HOW TO USE INHERITED ANTIQUES? Are you trying to make your home more “green” by re-using or repurposing antique or vintage furniture? Or are you just a lover of antiques, period? If you answered ‘yes’ to any or all of these questions, be sure to visit the Inspiration House at the Cathedral Antiques Show. Eight talented interior designers were each invited to adopt a room at the Inspiration House of the Cathedral of St. Philip. Their goal is to demonstrate a fresh approach while including antiques in today’s homes. Some approached the task from a layered, classically traditional viewpoint, while others took a pared-down modern approach; some skillfully blended elements of old and new. The roster of designers includes: Laura Green Thome (foyer and second-floor landing), Rick Anthony Bonner (keeping room), Marcia Sherrill and Alison Goldwater-Arkin (dining room), Robert Spiotta and James Deadwyler (library), Darcy Harris (bedroom/sitting room), and Terri Vawter and Terry Brown (bedroom). Complementing the varied interior design styles are a completely remodeled and updated kitchen provided by Warner McConaughey of HammerSmith, an updated and refreshed exterior from Harrison Design Associates, and lawns beautifully re-designed by Tim Gartland of Hamilton Land Services, Inc., and Ed Castro of Ed Castro Landscape .

H.E.R.O. CHARITY HEARTS EVERYWHERE REACHING OUT for Children, Inc.’s (HERO) mission is to improve the quality of life for children infected with and affected by HIV/AIDS in Georgia through enriching programs, unforgettable experiences and connections with the community. The organization was founded in 2003 to address an unmet need-quality of life care for children affected by HIV/AIDS. HERO defines quality of life as the degree to which an individual enjoys physical, social and emotional well-being, and sees him or herself as being able to experience future success and fulfillment. HERO grew from a start-up cause in donated office space to an organization that raised over one million dollars in its fifth year. A portion of those funds were developed through college philanthropy organizations at the University of Georgia and Georgia Tech. Almost all of HERO’s original board members, including Vince Dooley (former UGA Athletic Director) and Mark Richt (UGA Head Football Coach), remain actively involved and very supportive of HERO’s mission. HERO currently impacts more than 500 children through 18,000 hours of care with more than a thousand volunteers annually. Approximately 33 percent of HERO children are HIV positive and 67 percent are affected, meaning an infected parent/guardian, sibling or residential relative. Nearly 25 percent have lost a parent to HIV/AIDS related complications. HERO serves a predominantly low-income population, and provides all services free of charge. The organization offers one-on-one mentoring, life skills education, a summer camp, reading enrichment, holiday gifts, and a variety of recreational activities and events to its clientele. Several children have been involved with HERO programs since the agency began, and some have gone on to college.

HERO’s Executive Director, Donna Drakes says, “I am extremely grateful to have been selected as the 2011 Cathedral Antiques Show and Tour of Homes beneficiary. This wonderful partnership will facilitate program expansion at HERO, as well as raise awareness of the effects of pediatric AIDS in Georgia.” The event co-Chair, Cindra Brown adds, “The mutually beneficial partnership between the 2011 show and HERO is inspiring. Our goal is to highlight and raise support for an often overlooked population.” Susan Graham, who also serves as the event co-Chair, states, “We are excited to have the opportunity to help increase awareness of this vibrant organization in the Atlanta community!” HERO is positioned to address the unique needs of children whose futures are affected by this life-altering pandemic. It is providing them the chance to blossom into responsible adults who, in turn, will become positive contributors of tomorrow.

FEBRUARY
Last December, a new design paradigm was ushered into Atlanta as two dozen of the city’s top designers gathered to redefine local style. Our showhouse at The Mansion on Peachtree—41 stories above the city’s iconic boulevard—was the site of this design metamorphosis. And while the rooms were ephemeral, their influence on the NEW LOOK OF ATLANTA STYLE will be everlasting.

SOMETHING MAGICAL HAPPENS WHEN YOU GATHER THE CITY’S TOP DESIGNERS UNDER ONE ROOF AND GIVE EACH OF THEM CARTE BLANCHE TO DECORATE A ROOM. THAT’S WHAT TRANSPIRED AT OUR RECENT SHOWHOUSE. THE RESULT: BESIDES DAZZLING, WE CALL IT A DESIGN REVOLUTION.
50
ATLANTAHOM ES MAG.COM
Through originality, self expression and exacting execution, the arbiters of style who created our recent showhouse pushed Atlanta design to a new level. The result: a collaborative that created its own set of design rules in the process. Their expertise and artistry, exhibited in the following 26-page portfolio, will inspire you to create your own design rules—and know how to break them! WRITTEN BY KATE ABNEY, SEJA L BHIMA, AMY SAXON & CLIN TON SMITH PRINCIPAL PHOTOGRAPHY BY ERICA GEORGE DINES PRODUCED AND STYLED BY CLINTON SMITH
+ 2010 will go down as the year that classic and contemporary design collided—and nobody noticed, proving the point that people don’t have to choose to live one way or the other. At the recent Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles Christmas House, the question “What style is it?” proved to be a moot point, since it was shown that all looks can coexist beautifully. Comprising two residences on the 41st floor of The Mansion on Peachtree, A Rosewood Hotel & Residence, the rooms in this year’s showhouse were nearly impossible to label, as many served multiple functions—namely: guest room as home office and den as breakfast room—a true indication of our multitasking lives. And while the way we live has changed considerably since the first Christmas House 36 years ago, we think the future looks brighter than ever.
51
+ GILT TRIP This jewel box of a dining room is a testament to designer Beth Webb’s showhouse mantra. “It’s where you can do your best work and really push the envelope,” she says, “because, essentially, you are your own client.” Webb brought to life her vision of an elegant dinner party by outfitting the room with enchanting items such as dark Moser crystal, a Paul Ferrante chandelier and Hermès china and flatware. The room’s signature amethyst-and-gold scheme is most noticeable in a velvet settee. The plush custom piece shakes up conventional seating and gives guests a comfortable spot to linger long after dessert. “I like people to sit down for a long, luxurious dinner,” says Webb. “Once they’re seated, I like guests to stay there and feel all cozied up.”
PHOTOGRAPH BY DAVID CHRISTENSEN
BREAK THE RULES Beth Webb softened this angular space with some help from Raymond Goins, who hand-painted the striking walls. “Horizontal stripes are usually found in powder rooms or children’s bedrooms,” says Webb, “but this solution turned out to be a beautiful focal point that not only creates an uplifting optical illusion, but really envelopes you in the space.”

BREAK THE RULES A rich shade of brown was bold and a little unexpected for Phoebe Howard, who typically gravitates toward soft, creamy colors. The resulting living room is a little on the masculine side, but it still has the freshness and polish this decorator is known for. A high-gloss paint finish, mimicking lacquer, ups the ante on the room’s elegance.
+ GRACEFUL & GRAPHIC In Phoebe Howard’s take on the classic wood-paneled library, glossy dark brown paint unifies the room’s many angles and soffits, allowing them to recede into the single-tone backdrop. Four narrow bookcases were given graphic punch with a mix of ceramic vessels, antique books and a special collection of six original Albert Hadley sketches, set in Lucite. The room’s masculine effects are tempered by cream-colored upholstery that appears to “float” amid a stitched cowhide rug, its geometric motif echoed by cutouts in the sheer window panels, a graphic pillow made from luxurious Holland & Sherry fabric and a painting by New York artist Doug Glovaski. Howard’s signatures— symmetry, softness and selective editing—keep the look classic and clean above all.

BREAK THE RULES “Most of what I did in the space could be considered breaking the rules,” says Tish Mills. “The combination of furniture, the combination of colors, and the contemporary and organic nature of items placed right next to each other. This design was a living experiment. I wanted to explore what that meant to me.”

+ SIMPLY STRIKING Jeffrey Reed complemented the cherry cabinetry in this kitchen with striking Montclair marble countertops. Considering the room’s diminutive size, Reed continued the same marble up the backsplash. “Bringing in too many elements into this small kitchen would have made it look overdone,” he says. “Instead, the toned down look creates the illusion of a larger kitchen.”
BREAK THE RULES “A chandelier would have been too formal in this space, so multiple pendants proved to be unexpected and just the right fit,” says Jeffrey Reed.
+ NATURAL BEAUTY Tish Mills describes her breakfast room as “the most contemporary space she’s ever done.” Inspired by modern-day Berlin, the designer called upon a variety of textures, styles and colors—chartreuse, amethyst, orange and white. Imagining the home to be the Atlanta crash pad for a globe-trotting couple, Mills cocooned the space by hanging art over two windows and establishing vignettes that encourage viewers to look north out the window above the intimate dining nook. A walnut table with an irregular edge represents one of Mills’ most personal new ventures; embedded with real amethyst, it brings nature indoors in a calming way. A white-upholstered settee grounds the space, but pillows made from edgy Romo fabrics and a tangerine rug from Moattar give it a little punch.

BREAK THE RULES Black may seem a daring shade choice for this small space, but Amy D. Morris explains that “black allowed the finish of the chandelier to pop the most, and allowed for a large range of color choices. I didn’t want the room to be ordinary. We played with many colors against the black, and the bold selections of chartreuse, teal and burnt orange gave me the element of surprise that I was looking for.”

+ WHIMSICAL WELCOME In this multifunctional space, Amy D. Morris used bold textures as well as pops of burnt copper and chartreuse against ink-black walls—all reflected through a staggering custom mirror—to entice the sophisticated dweller to pause to reflect for a moment. The vision began with an enchanting chandelier from R Hughes; its dramatic splays of bronze are echoed in accents throughout the room. From the porter’s chair to the hammered iron-and-glass shelves to the Plexiglas desk floating in the center of the space, each feature is carefully positioned to create a unique sense of fluidity.

BREAK THE RULES “The room ended up with so much furniture in such a small space,” notes Stephen Boyd, but installing several pieces in tight quarters is something this designer doesn’t shy away from, and it’s one reason his rooms are considered so comfortable. “My work is not usually described as sparse,” he laughs. study 18TH CENTURY ITALIAN COMMODE REGALO ANTIQUES GILDED MIRROR CUSTOM ABBEY MIRROR THROUGH BRADLEY HUGHES CHANDELIER SUNBURST PENDANT BY TONY DUQUETTE FOR REMAINS LIGHTING SOFA CUSTOM THROUGH BRADLEY HUGHES PAGODA LAMPS ON STANDS TONY DUQUETTE FOR BAKER FURNITURE RUG MOATTAR LTD.

+ OPULENCE REIGNS This study by Hutton Wilkinson for Tony Duquette, created in concert with Atlantan Stephen Boyd, is marked by maximum comforts, due in large part to an ample mix of furnishings covered in the former’s latest fabrics for Jim Thompson. In fact, the room was enveloped in these textiles with abandon: upholstered walls, sumptuous curtain panels, folding screens and more displaying a range of colors and motifs. “Duquetterie,” the elegant fabric used for the folding screens, was inspired by the design of a chest Duquette designed for Elsie de Wolfe in 1941, and this showhouse marks its first appearance in the U.S. The duo took several opportunities to display Wilkinson’s Tony Duquette licensed pieces for Baker Furniture, as well: shallow niches flanking the fireplace were punctuated by Regency Pagoda Lamps on pedestals, and Sunburst Torcheres on bases flank the terrace wall, giving the room a curated effect. Meanwhile, Wilkinson’s California Sunburst Pendant for Remains Lighting shines from above.

BREAK THE RULES “In choosing the linens and the embroidery, I didn’t select the exact browns, blues or greens,” says Liz Williams. “I wanted it to look collected, and not too ‘matchy.’” Indeed, the room gives the impression of one that was not planned at all, but emerged over the years. Even new pieces, like the Paul Ferrante sconces, offer the impression of antique heirlooms.

+ RESTFUL RETREAT The design for Liz Williams’ master bedroom stemmed from a classic Rose Tarlow fabric she’d been waiting for years to use. It established the palette of greens and blues and, from there, her inspiration grew. A skirted Rose Tarlow chair, with its graceful lines, plays against the stronger shape of the iron bed; draped elegantly with fabric panels, the sleeping spot gains added comfort thanks to an upholstered headboard. Striving for a personal, collected look, Williams combined a variety of pieces, as well as several shades of crisp greens, blues and browns. This made it easy to add favorite finds into the mix—like a pair of painted Swedish chairs—without throwing off the scheme. Dressmaker details, such as those on the window treatments and softly pleated bedskirt, make the room feel truly special.

+ NATURAL ELEMENTS In a nod to classic California design, Capella Kincheloe brought the outdoors in—41 floors above ground. The powder room features an oil painting by Jules Cozine that captures the beauty of trees in a variety of vivid shades. Kincheloe takes that color cue and repeats it throughout the room, giving the windowless space an airy quality. In the master bath, opposite, a stump-turned-wood stool and an alabaster bowl pendant against a backdrop of warm creams and oranges play up the designer’s vision of a natural yet luxe environment.

+ A STAGE FOR LIVING Due to the long, narrow shape of this living room, it was important for designer Susan Ferrier to first establish a successful floorplan. Conversation groups around the room’s perimeter are comfortable and inviting while, in the center of the space, a custom daybed connects them and provides a luxurious spot to lounge. In lieu of a true dining table, Ferrier chose an entry table that is just as convenient for dropping off personal belongings as for eating a formal meal. Eschewing too many accessories, she filled the large volume over the table with a low-slung chandelier. Although it’s oversize, the fixture has a lightweight look that doesn’t overpower the framed photography beyond; plus, it’s balanced by compact lanterns nestled softly within the wall of drapery—hinting ever so slightly at the outdoors within view. Custom furnishings—many by David Iatesta—plus Continental antiques and Bobby McAlpine’s signature pieces for MacRae give the room its strong character, while gilded and coppery touches add glamour.
BREAK THE RULES Instead of relying on standard residential furnishings and retrofitting them for the high-rise, Susan Ferrier had pieces custom tailored to fit the unconventional shape of the room. “You’re always trying to heal the angles in a modern dwelling like this, but you can’t ignore them or save them for last,” she says. “Manage the problem, and then soften the edges to make it beautiful. You have to be smart.”

BREAK THE RULES “I looked at this space as an all-purpose room. It’s not your traditional family room or breakfast room, but captures all of those elements in a way,” explains William Peace. “You can read a book and take in the view, face the chairs together and sit down for dinner, or relax and share a cup of coffee with a friend.”
+ ARTISTIC APPROACH Designer William Peace gave this modern den a classic spin with pair of handsome mohair-upholstered chairs and a round cocktail table designed by icons Angelo Donghia and Warren Platner, respectively. A Charles Pfiester bowl, from Peace’s personal collection, rounds out his nod to timeless design. But artwork is truly the focal point of this pared-down room. “We intentionally wanted to be spare with the furnishings because art is very important in this space,” says Peace. A Margarita Checa bronze infuses the room with movement while an elegant Tom Swanston painting with silver leaf echoes the stainless steel found throughout the den and adjoining kitchen.

BREAK THE RULES Many designers try to fit a dozen motifs into a single space, explains Bill Hudgins, but he believes in keeping things simple—even if it means going against the grain. “In my mind, the composition and mood are what’s important. You focus on the room as a whole, a picture that’s not overly complicated…one seamless composition.”
PHOTOGRAPH BY DAVID CHRISTENSEN
+ GRAND PERCEPTION An effortless blend of details makes this kitchen seem much larger than its 200 square feet. Michael Bell, of Inspirations Kitchen & Bath, started with a soft palette of neutrals and then executed ingenious ideas to create a chic minimalistic look that would visually expand the space. Simple curved edges on the center island and in-panel restoration glass on the upper cabinets create a sense of flow. But one of the most unassuming tricks was forgoing a typical backsplash behind the range. “We used travertine with a pillow edge for some visual depth, and then set it in a classic subway tile pattern. It’s clean and elegant, and really helps the room feel bigger,” says Bell.
BREAK THE RULES “Typically, in a small room I would never take the cabinetry or pantry door all the way up to the ceiling,” explains Michael Bell. “But in this kitchen, if the pantry and fridge doors are all closed at once, it creates a beautiful and seamless back wall.”
+ TALL ORDER High-rise living poses challenges in outdoor décor but Bill Hudgins’ terrace, a convergence of Roman and Asian influences with modern balance and structure, presents a space crafted to withstand the elements. Instead of an abundance of motifs in a single space, Hudgins envisioned a clean, crisp juxtaposition of soft and sharp elements to present a striking focal point. The circular pedestal table and garden stools balance the rectangular patio; together with the angular selenite crystals, the composition seemingly mimics the Atlanta skyline.

+ LUMINOUS LAVATORY The master bath by Barbara Howard is pared down and positively bathed in white, channeling a modern-day interpretation of Billy Baldwin. Howard designed Parsons-style custom vanities with generous toe-kick reveals that create a floating effect. To accommodate an awkward angle between the vanities, a simple custom bench offers a place for one user to sit while the other gets ready for the day or an evening out. Above it, raspberry tones in an abstract work by Sally King Benedict enhance the cool blues and grays of the Ann Sacks marble spanning the floors, while curvaceous vases from Gramercy Home act as playful counterpoints to the clean lines of the room.

BREAK THE RULES Minimalism is a fresh approach for Barbara Howard. “To me, it has great style, but it’s very subtle,” she says. And as for the white? “It can be a little tricky. Normally, one might have painted the walls a light gray or a putty color, but in this case, less is more.”

BREAK THE RULES Iris Apfel’s risky embrace of unexpected scale, color, texture and materials works because it builds upon a basic foundation palette of materials and colors, which is exactly what these designers did in this warm, modern room. “Even though her design sense is extreme, it has always felt natural and creative and inspiring,” notes Mark Williams. “Anytime we’re designing a space, we want inspiration that’s a little out of the ordinary and will challenge us to create in a different way.”
+ FASHION FORWARD The playful but purposeful master bedroom by Mark Williams and Niki Papadopolous was inspired by fashion plate Iris Apfel. The duo covered a staggered wall of windows with a heavy curtain to establish a new bed wall, augmenting the subtle scheme with sumptuous linens, whimsical accessories and inspirations from different cultures and eras—much like the pieces Apfel is known to don. Atop a Chinese chest from Coup d’Etat is a copy of the book dedicated to Apfel, A Rare Bird of Fashion, which mingles with embellished wooden hat forms and other artful accents. A curious sculpture by David Katz fills the window nook while customized pendants from The Urban Electric Co. act as lighthearted alternatives to traditional bedside lamps. A brass-finish bench, borrowed from the personal collection of Björk Antikt & Studio’s Amy Wikman, was reupholstered in white hair-on-hide for a modern look while Tai Ping’s Haiku Yukata I rug pulls the colors of the room together brilliantly.

+ MARVELOUS MEDLEY Carter Kay and Nancy Hooff had a purposeful vision when creating a guest bedroom that would accommodate the demands of changing lifestyles. They crafted a space that might welcome a grown son, reflecting both the memories of the boy and the cultivated interests of the cosmopolitan man. Thus emerged a practical balance of old and new that establishes a sense of place. Rustic leather, a vintage desk and chairs covered in Italian newsprint are offset by unexpected elements such as dramatic lamps lacking shades. The result is a room that is, at once, functional and whimsical.

+ ELEGANT EFFECT Kathryn Leach took an elegant approach in decorating this bedroom, opposite, with myriad grays and layers and layers of luxurious silk. A pair of accent pillows with decorative detailing add a fanciful touch. A elevated four-poster bed introduces drama into the room’s otherwise reserved aesthetic. And while the large-scale contemporary artwork is eye-catching, it’s the chandelier outfitted with Swarovski crystals that is this bedroom’s crowning jewel. “When there’s a lot of sunlight,” explains Leach, “it reflects off the crystals and lights up the entire space with a prism effect.”
+ ORGANIZED STYLE Whether the look is traditional or contemporary, smart storage solutions should always be at the forefront when designing master closets. Peggy Snider-Houghton of Closets and More equipped this one in sleek Tuscan Teak Grigio Melamine—with column pullouts, three-way cabinet dividers, tilt-down hampers, jewelry inserts, even doors that reveal space for off-season clothing. “Doors are useful for protecting from dust, and it contributes to an overall tidy look,” she says.

“Clement J. Ford” continued from page 14 only the commissions he enjoyed and was passionate about. While Ford was never part of a large firm, he fit the Atlanta architect mold in almost every other way. His education at Georgia Tech and Columbia, his military service in World War II, his Episcopal faith and his membership in numerous social clubs made him the perfect keeper of Atlanta’s gentleman architect tradition. Local landscape architect Edward Daugherty became acquainted with Ford in the late 1960s, and the two designers collaborated on numerous projects, beginning with the renovation of the Grant Mansion into the Cherokee Town Club. When asked why a client would choose Ford over one of his competitors—who, for many years, would have been Lewis Crook or James Means— Daugherty said, “If you wanted a home, Clem was your choice. If you wanted a showplace, you chose someone else.” Ford didn’t typically have the grand lots and large commissions that many of his predecessors enjoyed; many of his commissions were one-story homes built on lots that had been subdivided from grand estates. Like Ford himself, his houses have a relaxed elegance and a human scale that’s both comfortable and appealing. He was ahead of his time in recognizing the lifestyle changes of the post-servant era and adapted his traditional taste to modern living, focusing attention on the kitchen and other less-formal areas. After World War II, when classicism in Atlanta waned, Ford kept the fledgling style alive until its resurgence in the 1980s. Wright Marshall is a frequent speaker and writer on Atlanta’s historic architects, with Georgia’s classical architecture serving as his primary passion and inspiration. Marshall is the owner of Revival Construction, which specializes in the renovation and restoration of older homes. Having grown up in nearby Griffin, Marshall graduated from Woodward Academy and Washington and Lee University, where he studied business and art history.

INTERVIEW BY
MARCIA SHERRILL
Elaine Griffin Marcia Sherrill talks with the Brunswick-raised, Yale-educated, New York-based interior designer about her book, Design Rules THIS MONTH’S ISSUE IS ALL ABOUT BREAKING THE RULES OF DECORATING AND YOU’VE JUST WRITTEN A BOOK CALLED DESIGN RULES: THE INSIDER’S GUIDE TO BECOMING YOUR OWN DECORATOR. CAN YOU GIVE US A FEW RULES TO BREAK RIGHT NOW? The best part of learning the timeless rules, proportions and decorating tips I share in Design Rules is that once you know the rules, it’s OK to break them. Because then you’re making an educated decision to break a rule that doesn’t work for you as opposed to operating in ignorance. YOU ARE A GEORGIA GIRL. DO YOU STILL HAVE SOME SOUTHERNISMS THAT
GRIFFIN’S FAVORITE COLOR OF THE MOMENT IS BENJAMIN MOORE’S CALYPSO BLUE 727.

YOU USE IN DECORATING OR ENTERTAINING? I’m from Brunswick and, even though I’ve lived in New York City forever, Georgia’s fabled beaches of the Golden Isles are still home! Being Southern is more than just a geographical description; it’s a lifestyle. We invented gracious living and nobody does it better than we do! Park Avenue ladies will often let you die of thirst in their apartments, which would never happen south of the Mason-Dixon. AND WHAT ABOUT AT YOUR OWN HOME OR YOUR CLIENTS’? Southerners are all about the importance of faith, family and friends, and one’s home is where the three intersect. I can’t help my clients with the faith part, but every room we do is about accommodating family and friends. Southern hospitality rules my home up north. My husband, Michael (who was born a Boston Yankee but is converting), and I lavish our guests with abundance when they come over. An empty glass just breaks a Southerner’s heart and, Sugar, I am no exception! We also have proper napkins for each social moment; sad to say, y’all, but most Yankees couldn’t tell a cocktail napkin from a luncheon napkin from a dinner napkin if they tried, bless their hearts. WHAT IS THE ONE RULE THAT WE SOUTHERNERS FIND HARD TO BREAK? Southern ladies love their formal dining rooms (where else would you put your grandmother’s dining furniture and show off Sissy’s heirloom china?), even though the rest of the country has moved in favor of the living/dining room combo. AND ONE RULE WE FIND HARD TO OBEY? Family photos, even when exquisitely framed, should be banned from the living room. Show them off en masse, in same-colored frames, in the den on a bookcase or étagère, or hang them in a breakfast nook or on hallway walls, instead. WHAT IS YOUR MUST-HAVE COLOR OF THE MOMENT? Peacock blue. I can’t get enough of it, especially when paired with olive green, lemon yellow and ivory. Benjamin Moore’s Calypso Blue 727 is sheer perfection. ARE THERE ATLANTA ANTIQUES STORES THAT YOU FIND YOURSELF REVISITING? I don’t head to the ATL without checking in at Ainsworth-Noah. It has the best things ever, and Winton and Hal are forever scouring Europe for new finds so I don’t have to. For rugs, I’m wild about Moattar.
GRIFFIN’S DESIGN PROJECTS INCLUDE A MIX OF TRADITIONAL, TRANSITIONAL AND MODERN STYLES. HER BOOK, AT LEFT, IS AVAILABLE THROUGH AMAZON.COM
