Veranda Art of Design Awards

Yesterday we went to ADAC for the Veranda Art of Design Awards documentary and panel. This year, the Awards honor industry trailblazers whose work is innovative and timeless. It was wonderful event, the panelists were charming and astute, and I especially enjoyed the documentary. I also got to reconnect with Veranda's founding editor Lisa Newsom and her daughter Leslie, which was lots of fun!! Hadn't seen Lisa since her Southern Accents days.

I highly recommend this video, where you can learn about each winner:

Garden Stools Inside

We just used three garden stools in a client's living room. One like the blue square stools above and two round ones in a tomato red floral pattern. Both Wisteria and Gumps have lots of these beauties.

They work in any room - living room, library, dining room, entrance hall, bedroom or bathroom. They are side tables, space fillers, book holders and just plain pretty to look at!

House of the Week



This charming house is the across the street neighbor from last week's house of the week. Of course I like it - it's white and has black shutters. I love the way the front porch detail mirrors that of the windows. I think this is either Greek Revival or Colonial Revival. I lean more towards Greek Revival because of the wide band of trim at the cornice line. Any of you architects out there please weigh in...

From A Field Guide to American Houses, identifying features of a Greek Revival house:

Gabled or hipped roof of low pitch; cornice line of main roof and porch roofs emphasized with wide band of trim; most have porches supported by prominent square or rounded columns, typically Doric style... p179.


But it could also be Colonial Revival. From the same book the identifying features of Colonial Revival:

Accentuated front door, normally with decorative crown (pediment) supported by pilasters or extended forward and supported by slender columns to form entry porch; doors commonly have overhead fanlights or sidelights; facade normally show symmetrically balanced windows and center door; windows with double hung sashes...p. 321.



















Which style do you think it is?

Fire weather

Here in Atlanta it's finally gotten chilly. Great for football games, fires and crisp walks to admire the leaves. Have a great Fall weekend!
