Miles Redd For Ballard Designs

One of my favorite designers and AD100 constant, Miles Redd, has collaborated with Ballard Designs, to create a new line of furniture, accessories, and lighting which will launch in August!  If you are like me and can't wait til the official launch then pop over to the pre-launch sneak peek and take a gander here!

 I honestly like every piece in the line, but this post includes my favorites which I predict will be best sellers.   Miles Redd and Ballard Designs hit a major " home run" with this collection!  Make sure to tee up your purchases prior to the sale opening because I predict a quick sell out of the first inventory released.  You don't want to be on the back order list while watching others posting their Miles Redd/Ballard items in situ on instagram.  

The line includes 28 fabulous pieces click here to continue reading and see my favs...

"Southern Style Now" Guest Cottage Kitchen

When space is an issue can you still have a functional kitchen?  The answer is a resounding YES!!!  Check out the small yet functional kitchen Shaun Smith and I created together for the Southern Style Now Showhouse guest cottage.  Shaun is the interior designer who was hired by the homeowners before the house became the showhouse for the Southern Style Now event.   When it came time to design the kitchen in the guest cottage, Shaun and I worked together to choose the color of the cabinets, the tile backsplash, flooring and the hardware.   I don't need to tell you how much I love, love Thermador appliances because you already know from previous postings I'm sure.  

This kitchen features the new 30" Thermador range, dishwasher, microwave, and refrigerator all neatly tucked away in a kitchen with a footprint which is typical of a tiny apartment, yet offers the option of proper appliances in a pro kitchen.  To make this little gem shine we added Crossville Tile inc. 's Sympatico tile in matte white which will be available in August of this year and flooring is

 Speak Easy in silver screen.  

Our hardware of choice was Nest Studio Collection in brushed brass from their Hex collection!   It feels like sculpture in your hand.  The brushed brass finish added a jewelry-like statement to the kitchen and warmed up the stainless.

Kitchen Countertops are Carrera marble.

Accessories and brass bamboo bar cart 

 were provided by Ballard Designs.

Sink and faucet is from DXV Luxury for American Standard.

Isle Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet  in ultra steel and under mount
