House location & type »
A new, upscale, LEED-certified condo in Atlanta, Georgia

Goals of the homeowner »
To achieve a home that reflects the homeowner’s style and showcases his extensive art collection. Due to the onset of an illness, he also needed a home that was on one level and would provide a space to age in place.

Favorite part of the project »
The open spaces that flow together. Since the homeowner doesn’t cook and his entertaining is more cocktail-oriented, we eliminated the classic need for a dining area and instead placed a large stone table that can double for dining if the need arises. The tall ceilings allow us to curate his art and showcase his larger pieces.

Favorite item »
The klismos chair from Baker that was completed in leather with an ivory finish. It helps ground the space in history while adding a unique twist.
