Courtney Giles

Photos by Erica George Dines

The Atlanta townhouse of Courtney Giles is an updated version of the usual edited, neutral interior style. Featured in Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles, Giles mixes inherited antiques, small doses of color and contemporary art to keep her home feeling young. Black walls in the bedroom with Greek-inspired window treatments add a bit of graphic appeal. The work in the den is by Ben Kay, the artist son of interior designer Carter Kay, for whom Giles has been an assistant.

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. So chic. Reminds me a bit of the home of the daughter of the woman who owns And George. (sorry about the awkward sentence there.)

Everyone says they want to move to New York but I think I want to move to Atlanta. There are so many talented and creative people there!

I thought this was a really great article- it's chic, sophisticated, and has a young vibe to it. I can't wait to see more of her projects.

Beautiful rooms!

I wanted to stop by and tell you how much I enjoy your blog! I'm adding it to my blog roll today!

I'd dub this "Antique Glam."

And the verdict's still out for me... I think I like it, but I'm not positive! I do definitely appreciate that it has it's own, unique style going on.

This gal obviously has a great sense of style. I love it. The contrast is great and she works the color and modern touches in so effortlessly. Very nice job. I love the photo of the bedroom with the Kelly Wearstler Palm Springs Viceroy valances. How do you get dogs to pose like that??

Beautiful. And such a contrast to yesterday's post (which, by the way, inspired me to download a little something at my dianamuse bloggy). Have a great weekend!

I LOOOOVE this! Thanks for pointing me her way! And I totally agree with habitually... I'd move to Atlanta in a heartbeat for this room!

wow. that graphic black and white room takes the cake. It has all the boldness of a magazine spread, but the soft livable nature of a room I could easily curl up in with a book. It looks like her two dogs are just as happy to be there as I would be!

gorgeous!
