We conclude our special series highlighting the FLOWER Magazine Atlanta Showhouse with a recap of our in-person tour! Ballard Designs is proud to be one of the sponsors of the house. We share our initial thoughts and takeaways and go room by room to marvel at each designer's work. Our biggest takeaway? The house is so awe-inspiring that we have to go again! And if you're local, we highly recommend a visit. What You'll Hear on This Episode: We start with the breathtaking entryway which includes textures, patterns, and a plethora of wallpaper. We dig into the wallpaper, the details, and the cohesiveness of the house. We are hoarse from talking so much at the showhouse; everyone was so inspiring and welcoming! The house had everything you could imagine; including LIVE birds! Did we mention there was pink marble? We attempt to pick our favorite room. Is it even possible? Which room had hand-painted tiger wallpaper? Each space, even the small ones, was designed as its own room. A reminder to maximize every space. Our only complaint was the space-age toilets the builder put in. Why every single space was a wow moment; you must go in person if you can! Mentioned in This Episode: Visit the FLOWER Magazine Atlanta Showhouse to preview each designer's space. Buy tickets to the Showhouse HERE!

We are back with our special series highlighting the FLOWER magazine showhouse here in Atlanta. This episode features the celebrated Dallas-based interior designer, Cathy Kincaid. Known for her use of color and her exquisite eye for antiques, Cathy talks to us about how no detail is too small, her love of cozy bedrooms, and her tips for creating elegant yet livable designs inside your home. Cathy talks more about different ways to personalize your bedroom including getting clear on how you like your lighting, bed dressings, textiles, and furniture set up. If you'd like to visit the house in person you can purchase tickets here, and also follow along with the podcast series whether you can see it in person or not! What You'll Hear on This Episode: Cathy loves smaller bedrooms and finds them to be super cozy. What was Cathy's inspiration behind the color choice in the bedroom, other than it being the woman's domain? The influence of the baby Taj on the bedroom design. Cathy dives more into her choice of fabric and drapery in the bedroom. What are some ways that we can create bedrooms that feel elegant, timeless, and livable? How we can bring more comfort to ourselves in the bedroom, and also make it family-friendly for other partners, children, and of course…our pets. Some ideas if you are like Cathy and want a desk somewhere in your bedroom. Beautiful lighting ideas and how to make your nightstand more functional. Cathy gives some great bed sheet recommendations and is not one to spend her morning stacking a million pillows. What are some classic colors for a bedroom that stand the test of time?

We are back with our special series highlighting the FLOWER magazine showhouse here in Atlanta, and the fun continues with acclaimed designer Barry Dixon. His work can be found all over the world, and on the pages of your favorite magazines like House Beautiful, Traditional Home and of course, Flower magazine. Barry talks about designing for all five senses, telling the story of a space from beginning to end, and his choice of textiles, colors, and books in the beautifully inspiring library. Ballard Designs is proud to be one of the sponsors of the house, and we are so excited to share all the gorgeous spaces with you. If you'd like to visit the house in person you can purchase tickets here, and also follow along with the podcast series whether you can see it in person or not! What You'll Hear on This Episode: Barry talks about the foundation of the library, and the little bit of Hollywood Regency appeal to the house. The views of the exterior are such an important part of the beauty of any interior. Some masculine ways to bring in florals. Barry talks about his curation of the books in the library and the intention behind the visual cues on the shelves. What advice would Barry give to people who are trying to blend styles or work with someone who doesn't have their same opinion on design? A beautiful truth: you're never alone in a room that speaks to you. How do you balance the personalities in your home (aka ones that love taxidermy and action figures)? How design is like writing a story, and it's important to tell the story from beginning to end. Barry's love of the extreme in design in every way, including location, architecture, and style. Mentioned in This Episode: Barry Dixon Barry Dixon's Books Decorating Dilemma: Thank you for writing in! First, Barry has some great thoughts and advice for you. The buffet always traditionally belonged in a dining room, so you can keep that and you can also keep the chairs you have. Maybe you want to paint those Hepa white chairs a really pretty French Gray from Farrow & Ball so they look fresh. Mix that with the green buffet, and it leaves your table to be brown, with some beautiful yellows and grays to add a sorbet of color. Let's buy a really beautiful paper with a pattern that goes with the Tudor or Arts and Crafts style - Barry has some good suggestions for ones from the 1800s. The Benjamin Moore color can be brought in as the trim color for the windows, baseboards, and door casings. Since you are just investing in the paper, maybe you can even do a coordinating pattern for your seat cushions on those chairs. This ties everything together in one grand statement. Please send us after photos so we can see your final choices! 

This episode continues our special series highlighting the FLOWER magazine showhouse here in Atlanta. Ballard Designs is proud to be one of the sponsors of the house, and we are so excited to share all the gorgeous spaces with you. Each day this week we will interview a different designer from the showhouse to talk about the room they designed, their inspiration, trends throughout the space, and much more. This episode features Julie Dodson, of Dodson Interiors. For 20 years, she has brought chic French inspired spaces to her Houston clientele. Her love of antiques and ability to add a fresh spin on traditional elements is evident in her polished spaces that she creates her clients. Julie talks about the inspiration for the showroom, her choice of the color palette, and how we can find the balance between the old and the new with antiques. If you'd like to visit the house in person you can purchase tickets here, and also follow along with the podcast series whether you can see it in person or not! What You'll Hear on This Episode: What do you look for in a wallpaper especially in a space that small? Why it's important to keep scale in mind when picking a wallpaper. Can one have too many wallpapers in a home? Does Julie feel like brass is going to wane in popularity as far as finishes go? Are wallpapers in bathrooms a good idea? Julie talks about the camaraderie in the house, and how the design community comes together and is excited to see what everyone is up to. Why Julie loves antiques and the character that comes with hard to find finishes. Julie provides some great resources for getting great antiques all year long, including the Round Top Antiques Fair. How does Julie start helping her clients create their art collections vs. ones that have been collecting for years? Mentioned in This Episode: Dodson Interiors @dodsoninteriors The Original Round Top Antiques Fair Decorating Dilema: Julie would do a custom rug that covers the entire room, and cuts out the hearth of the fireplace. A nice wool flat leaf would allow you to open and close the door, and it would make the room feel like one big comfy space, as opposed to multiple smaller rugs. Whatever you can do to bring it a little bit closer to the door would be nice. This brings up a great tip: if you're layering rugs on top, maybe go a little closer to the wall. As for the windows, Julie feels like adding trim is not a good investment, and you won't even notice if you are dressing them nicely. Julie would keep the marble surround that you have, but add an old beam or boxed shelf that goes the length of the fireplace. 

We are continuing our special series highlighting the FLOWER magazine showhouse here in Atlanta. Ballard Designs is proud to be one of the sponsors of the house, and we are so excited to share all the gorgeous spaces with you. Each day this week we will interview a different designer from the showhouse to talk about the room they designed, their inspiration, trends throughout the space, and much more. Our guest today, Melanie Milner, discusses her work on the scullery in the showhouse. Melanie is an Atlanta-based designer with The Design Atelier known for her timeless style and use of colors. Her work has been featured in Atlanta Homes & Lifestyle, LUXE, and more. If you'd like to visit the house in person you can purchase tickets here, and also follow along with the podcast series whether you can see it in person or not! What You'll Hear on This Episode: What is a scullery and why did it speak to Melanie? Why Melanie worked alongside the dining room team of the showhouse to coordinate designs. Melanie chose plaster finishes for the scullery for a durable, unique, and ethereal look. All of the lighting in the scullery is recessed to have a functional and practical workspace. What appliances go into a scullery? Why the small details can be the star of the show; especially in a kitchen space. How was designing this space different from designing other clients' kitchens? What are some new things Melanie is seeing in kitchens? What goes in the cabinets of a scullery? Why do Taryn and Melanie like bridge faucets? What other trends is Melanie seeing that she's excited about? Why organization can be such an important, albeit luxury, design element. Indoor/outdoor rugs are a great way to soften a space in a kitchen while still being easy to clean. Decorating Dilemma: Hi Nancy, There are a lot of really cool switch plates out there if you're willing to spend the money. A metal backplate would be a good place to start or you can find a colored one. I wouldn't paint it since it doesn't generally last. If you were to get wallpaper, you can have the installer cover that as well for an easy solution. Depending on how you design the bar, it could be a good idea to integrate the metal from the plate with hardware and accessories. I would say it depends on whether you want to be more subtle and integrate the switch plates or make a bold decision. We appreciate your level of detail, Nancy! Let us know what you decide. And thank you for listening to all of our episodes; twice!

Artist and activist Malene Barnett and designer and artist Leyden Lewis are two of the twenty-two creators behind the Black Artists and Designers Guild’s new project, Obsidian, a virtual concept house designed to celebrate innovation from black creatives—and to craft a home around the past, present and future needs of black families. On this episode of the podcast they chat with host Dennis Scully about why the Obsidian House is more like an innovation-driven car show than a typical designer showhouse, the challenges of creating meaningful partnerships with sponsors, and why the design industry needs to get beyond diversity as a goal, and start focusing on equity. This episode is sponsored by Chairish and Universal Furniture.

Due to the current global health crisis and concerns around the spread of COVID-19, events, both large and small have been canceled across the United States. Where does the industry go from here? How has event planning changed and adapted? In this podcast, Deidre West, director of special events and celebrity relations at the Children’s Health Fund, will discuss her experience navigating this new reality. Deidre West DIRECTOR OF SPECIAL EVENTS AND CELEBRITY RELATIONS FOR CHILDREN’S HEALTH FUND M.A. (New York University) Deidre West's experience in event planning includes a wide range from luncheons, dinner and conferences to high-profile events for celebrities and professional athletes, product launches, consumer brands in fashion, food and beverages industries, galas, retail stores, and a hotel grand reopening. West is a native Ohioan and has always had an interest in conceptualizing an idea and bringing it to life. At Ohio University she created a multidisciplinary Bachelor of Specialized Studies degree in Advertising that included courses from Public Relations, Marketing, Business, Journalism, Telecommunications, and Interpersonal Communications. West's love of music and understanding the business aspect of identifying talent and marketing artists piqued her interest. After graduating from OU, she went on to study Music Business and Entertainment Professions at New York University, where she received a master’s degree. During graduate school, West had the opportunity to plan events for the NYU community as the Special Events Graduate Assistant in NYU’s Program Office. Her team was responsible for planning “Big Fun Days” around campus for students, faculty and staff. These events included All Hallow’s Eve, Chill Out Day (during finals) and Strawberry Fest. Working for Sony Music enabled West to gain event experience during her first full-time job out of grad school. As the label representative for The Source magazine’s “Fashion Nation Tour,” she was involved in on-site execution of the tour at college campuses. This lead to her next role at a men’s magazine where she served as marketing/promotion and event manager, conceptualizing, planning and implementing various integrated marketing programs and events. In addition to the events in NYC, West planned events across the country (Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Houston, Chicago, Miami, and Boston) as well as in Puerto Rico. At Metropolitan Home and ELLE Decor magazines, West wrote integrated marketing proposals for advertisers and planned events in NYC, Los Angeles and Miami. The largest project that she managed was two months of private parties and public walking tours, as well as third-party rentals for the Metropolitan Home and Showtime Networks' Showhouse . The launch event won the Silver Award for "Best First Time Event" at the FOLIO: FAME Awards. After leaving the publishing industry, West spent more than five years at NYU planning large scale events that included Open House, Junior Day, and CSAW Cybersecurity Conference and Competition - the largest cybersecurity competition and conference in the world – and many other events. West is currently the Director of Special Events and Celebrity Relations for Children’s Health Fund, a New York City based nonprofit that provides medical, dental and mental health services across the country via state-of-the-art mobile medical clinics. She is responsible for planning fundraising, donor and other special events, and finding ways to engage celebrities for events as well as awareness campaigns.   WVU Marketing Communications Today is hosted by Michael Lynch from West Virginia University which is a program on the Funnel Radio Channel.     

Over the last two years Starr Miller and her design team have logged 3,000 hours working on the Interior Design Society Designer Showhouse. As co-chair of the event, there was much more to do than design a space. When the space opened on March 13 and closed two days later due to coronavirus mandates, it was a tough pill to swallow for the large cast involved. In the podcast, Miller discusses finding a solution that extended the life of the Showhouse for both the charitable beneficiaries as well as for the designers.  She also shares about her life before design, her years at Parsons School of Design, why building a relationship with her area’s regional publication is good for business and tips for gathering client referrals.

One of the most prestigious showhouse projects in the nation is the Kips Bay Decorator Showhouse - a project that benefits the Boys & Girls Clubs of America. This past year Corey Damen Jenkins received a personal invitation to participate in the project - and the work his team did in that house was UH-MAY-ZING! In this episode of Wingnut Social, we talk with Corey about how he became involved with the project, what is typically involved in doing a showhouse project from a practical standpoint, and what he recommends you do if you are considering participation in a showhouse project as part of your business strategy. You’ll learn what is needed in terms of budget, participation, marketing, and more - and hear why we politely declined a showhouse invitation early in our design career. What You’ll Hear On This Episode of Wingnut Social [1:12] Our 4th of July recap (and the PTSD and K9 terror that ensued) [4:18] The amazing Corey Damen Jenkins on this episode! [6:18] Corey’s experience doing the Kips Bay Showhouse [9:56] The uptick in business since doing the showhouse project [14:14] How can local designers get started working on showhouses? [20:11] When a designer should NOT participate in a showhouse [27:39] How Corey determined the design for his room [33:26] The marketing balance needed when participating in a showhouse project [38:50] The Whatup Wingnut round [44:01] Wrap-up and summary of the conversation [47:54] Blooper reel Connect with Corey Damen Jenkins Corey’s website: https://coreydamenjenkins.com/ On Instagram: @CoreyDamenJenkins On Facebook On Pinterest: @CoreyDamenJ On Twitter: @CoreyDJenkins Resources & People Mentioned Leathercraft Hudson Valley Lighting HGTV: Showhouse Showdown The Kips Bay Showhouse Corey worked on Corey’s spread on Traditional Home Magazine Junior League Holiday House Design on a Dime Theodore Alexander Kravet Courier Company Arteriors Lee Industries The Fisher Mansion showhouse Corey worked on BOOK: The Bible Participating in a showhouse project can radically grow your business As you might expect, a showhouse project as prestigious as the Kips Bay Decorator Showhouse can garner a lot of attention for the designers who participate, and Corey made the most of his opportunity by being on-site during the tour. He stayed in his room the whole time, interacting with those who came through, discussing his inspiration and purpose for the room, and answering any questions those touring the house may have had. As a result, the phone has been ringing off the hook ever since. That’s what you’d hope for but given the quality and stunning nature of what Corey was able to create, you’d also expect that to be the case. On this episode, Corey generously shares how he made the most of the opportunity and gives sensible and practical advice about how to get your foot in the door with showhouse organizers in your neck of the woods. The strength of your showhouse participation is your relationships While the prestige and notoriety of being involved with a showhouse are typically very beneficial to you as a designer, you can’t do it alone. Corey explains that much of his success with the Kips Bay project flowed out of the existing relationships he had with General Contractors, photographers, manufacturers, and more. In his mind, the real strength behind your participation will come from the relationships you’re able to forge. Corey explains why you should work to ally yourself with reputable vendors and manufacturers long before a showhouse project comes on your radar, how to go about it, how to negotiate donations or cost-splits for the showhouse design, and what it takes to work as a team to pull off an incredible effect from your room(s). The secret behind successful press coverage for your showhouse room When Corey approached the design of his room in the Kips Bay project - the library - he approached it from a very different angle than you might expect. Historically, the library would have been a gentleman’s office or “man cave” of the day, so Corey wanted to bring a 21st-century approach to the room. He reversed that traditional approach into a way to pay homage to the significant role women have played in society. He suggests that designers have a very clear plan and inspiration behind their room design in a showhouse so that they can easily and passionately talk about it with those who are interested - including the press. There’s nothing more un-press-worthy than a designer who only talks about color palettes and furniture choices for their room. Engaging with reporters about your room’s theme and inspiration provides a spin on the work that interests a wider audience and attracts press coverage. Listen to hear the entire conversation. Corey is a gifted, generous guest who made this episode a delight for both of us… and we’re confident you’ll feel the same as you hear it.

    013: SHOWHOUSE SAVVY MAKE A PLAN FROM THE START WITH LAUREN DAVENPORT IMBER Lauren Davenport Imber is an Atlanta-based interior designer that works with clients to transform high-end residential and commercial spaces into livable, chic spaces. Lauren is known for her timeless style and attention to detail, creating projects for clients on time and within budget. Her work has been featured on multiple platforms including HGTV and was recently named as an emerging designer to watch by Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles. In this episode we look at the profitability of working on show houses. TOPICS MENTIONED: Getting Started Ideal Clients Showhouse Planning THOUGHTS FROM LAUREN: The important thing is to know when the project is going off the rails and when to reel it back in. Trial and error is the best teacher- cut the losses, realign expectations and move on. Processes and procedures are something you are always tweaking. It is important for you but also for the clients so they know what to expect. A great question to help with planning is ‘What direction do I want my business to go in the next few years?’ Plan and work on those initiatives to further meet growth goals. I never enter into a Showhouse thinking I’ll get clients. If you plan accordingly, the profitability can be huge. Take advantage of getting your name out, establishing relationships with either the magazine or vendor putting on the event. It is important to plan out and create a budget going into a Showhouse.

Sarah Susanka, FAIA, is leading the movement to redefine the American home and lifestyle. Through her “build better, not bigger” approach to residential design she has demonstrated that the sense of “home” we seek has to do with quality, not quantity. In her Not So Big House series, Susanka helps readers understand that we feel “at home” in our houses when where we live reflects who we are in our hearts. Susanka recently unveiled the highly anticipated plans of her Not So Big Showhouse design for SchoolStreet Homes in Libertyville, Ill. Susanka’s Showhouse in Libertyville is a landmark event. For the first time, the best-selling author has agreed to design a house for a major development. Her goal is to introduce a semi-custom product into the mainstream residential housing market. The Showhouse will open in the fall of 2011. Susanka is the author of nine books that collectively weave together home and life design, revealing that a Not So Big attitude serves not only architectural aims, but life goals as well. Her books have sold well over one million copies and continue to rank highly on best-seller lists. Her titles include The Not So Big House, Not So Big Remodeling, Home By Design, and The Not So Big Life. Her most recent book, More Not So Big Solutions was released in March 2010 by The Taunton Press.
