PAMELA PIERCE ~ DESIGN IN TEXAS

There was no doubt in interior designer Pamela Pierce's mind when she made the decision to totally reconstruct this home and start over using old stone, limestone, plaster, and reclaimed wood.  Pierce raised the ceilings a foot in parts of the home and put in steel windows and doors.

The furnishings were mostly French, and Pierce used loosely fitted linen slipcovers on the upholstery to soften the rooms.  Lavender accents were used throughout the house to give character and warmth to the stone and other textures.

It took three years to complete this renovation, but Pierce is convinced that it was well worth the wait.  Her client agrees.  ENJOY!








To read more about this renovation read the May-June issue of Veranda magazine.

JIMMY STANTON ~ DESIGN IN ATLANTA

Interior designer Jimmy Stanton designed his Westside pied-à-terre in Atlanta, Georgia.  Stanton also owns Stanton Home Furnishings in the Westside neighborhood.  ENJOY!


















A picture is worth a thousand words.
Below is a picture of two dogs that are waiting for their owner, but the owners were killed in the tornado.  This breaks my heart, but they have been adopted.  I covered my dog beside me when the sirens went off.  Dogs truly are man's best friend and they are so loyal.

We are all so blessed.  Until you are close to these areas or have survived a disaster, you don't realize just how fortunate you are.
