Speaking of having such a style-conscience neighborhood, I recognized this home front while perusing my latest issue of Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles. I have often walked past and admired this house as one of the prettiest on the street, but who would have guessed that such a classic exterior would encase this modern mix of texture and light... 
Of course, it makes sense upon learning that this home belongs to Kay Douglass, creator of the South of Market mini-empire. For those unfamiliar with SOM, the shops in Charleston and Atlanta are known for their unique collection of contemporary upholstery paired with rustic, repurposed accessories.
An example: a collection of salvaged french hangers at South of Market, framed for a modern effect.More photos of her home and the story behind the renovation here.

I love her style of recycling old things in a contemporary way! I've always believed that good contemporary design can showcase most anything well!
welcome back!!!
Wow! I love a surprise and fresh interior. Great post.
Lovely!
The SOM in VaHi has had me very nervous, because they've had up lots of 50% off signs--I was afraid they were closing. But last night I saw a sign that said "help needed," so I'm sleeping better again.
That home is lovely.
I'm glad you are back.
I just found you mentioned on Style Court and LOVE your blog!

so funny this is the owner for SOM's house! before i read the caption and was scrolling through the pics, I thought to myself, this style is exactly how i would love to have my house! it's funny because this summer i was in charleston and stumbled upon SOM and instantly fell in love and told my boyfriend this store was ME. i knew the owner's house would be just as delightful! thanks for sharing!
Speaking of classic, wrought iron doors in garden add beauty. I think it still depends on the exterior design of the house. Still, having a garden is lovely!
