Before and After Traditional Home "Terry" House - Artist Retreat by Leslie Moore

Today's transformation comes from the very Leslie Moore of L. Moore Designs.  Leslie designed the upstairs bedroom.  She turned the room into an artist's retreat with sunny yellow grasscloth paper and beautiful works of art hung gallery style around the room.  Note the accent chair’s painterly fabric and the daybed’s king-size headboard with intricate, nailhead detailing. Instead of libations, a bar cart displays perfectly corralled paintbrushes, colored pencils, and knickknacks. On the walls, pieces of original artwork—all by Southern female artists—steal the spotlight. Currey & Company’s cream-beaded chandelier captivates overhead.

Before and After - Traditional Home "Randall B Terry" foyer by Traci Zeller

Photography by Dustin Peck

I'm happy to share my studio partner, Traci Zeller's before and after of the Traditional Home "Randall B Terry" foyer today!  Traci did a bang up job on the foyer by bringing chic style with a southern flair to this space.  Her space is proof that even the tiniest spaces can pack an impressionable punch.  Traci chose Mirth tiles in navy and white to ground the foyer and make the space updated and fresh with lavender Phillip Jefferies grasscloth and Pratt and Lambert paint.  A handpainted silver metallic ceiling was the perfect choice to allow the beautiful Circa chandelier to take the spotlight and sparkle.  What you don't see in this photograph is that the foyer is rectilinear and has another side exactly the same size as the one in the photograph above.  See below in Traci's rendering of the 

space.

Day 2 of the Traditional Home and High Point Junior League Showhouse "before" and "afters"  brings us the stunning bar transformation by the talented Christine Barbour co-owner and lead designer of Barbour Spangler of High Point, NC.  Christi worked with the existing cabinetry and painted them a glossy black, changed out the hardware for glass knobs and a added a custom designed mirrored backsplash over a new bar sink and finished the room with a beautiful black and white marble basket weave tile.  Touches of gold accents in just the right places make the space sparkle. The focal point of the bar is the gold starburst mirror positioned on the back wall. The light WilsonArt quartz countertops keep the room from feeling too dark.  This bar is all about glitz and glamour

but done in a sophisticated manner.
