Golden hour here at this 1940’s colonial that has been beautifully reimagined by its clever homeowners.

This Eclectic Contemporary House keeps a low profile amidst a bold and lively landscape. The home is made up of simple forms stitched together under shallow gable roofs that spread out, rather than stack up. Instead of trying to blend in like camouflage, or to assert itself with stark contrast, This ecelctic house uses bright materials and cheerful colors to compliment the sunny mood of its natural surroundings.

Micro this and mini that has a place, but Good Times is happy to buck the trend, assert its heft and take up some damn space. The capsule-shaped, thick wood top is fortified by generous, round wood legs.

Twin magnificent and historic valleys – named according to lore and legend for two star crossed lovers of warring Native American tribes - make up the unincorporated area of White County that has become a pivot point for the arts, activism, community and preservation. The Sautee and Nacoochee Valleys – both listed on the National Register of Historic Places – are primarily the naturally occurring, lowland landscape punctuated by the sites and assets that give the area its vibrant character. Even the mapping department in White County asserts that Sautee Nacoochee defies definitive boundaries as pride of place has propelled innovative expansion. Dedicated to Preserving and Protecting Although Sautee Nacoochee lacks conventional city government, clearly the "mayor" of this hamlet is the Sautee Nacoochee Community Association, a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and protecting the region and to nurturing the creativity that thrives here. The Association maintains the Sautee Nacoochee Center, a restored red brick schoolhouse, that is home to dual galleries, a history museum showcasing Cherokee heritage, gold strikes, timber and railroads, the Folk Pottery Museum of Northeast Georgia, art and dance studios, a heritage site and nature preserve, an intimate theater, an environmental studies room and a conference and special event facility. The Community Association was instrumental in establishing the official Historic Districts and brought acclaim to Sautee Nacoochee by securing its nomination as one of “The 100 Best Small Arts Towns in America.” Arts programming, among other endeavors, remains one of the Center’s most valuable community resources. In addition to fostering children’s activities in music, dance, theatre and visual arts, the Center hosts the 50 member Sautee Nacoochee Community Chorale, art studio workshops, speaker luncheons for seniors, gallery exhibits, Contra dances, feature films, sustainable living forums and Open Stage nights. The Center’s six week long SummerFest is highlighted by the home grown folk life play, Headwaters, now in its fourth season, which serves as an unvarnished Valentine to and about the people, places and perceptions that shape the Valleys, and is consistently ranked as a Top 20 Event by the Southeastern Tourism Society.

Wood paneling with a glowing niche, an arched doorway opening to an adjoining room, and natural light softened through sheer curtains — this dining room holds its warmth across every layer and every hour of the day. The LINKORI AURALITH pendant anchors the space from above, its geometric alabaster ring casting a warm, even glow that connects the room's layered light sources into a single cohesive atmosphere without asserting dominance over any of them. Crafted from natural Spanish alabaster, the stone diffuses its integrated LED source in a soft 360° wash — glare-free, warm, and responsive to the room's shifting natural light throughout the day. Its sculptural form holds visual weight whether lit or unlit, making it as present in a sun-filled afternoon as it is in an evening set for dinner. Available in Ø23.6" and Ø31.5". Adjustable suspension height. Dimmable. Contact us for trade pricing and project consultation.

After installation of the new custom valance, the Victorian Living Room feels more balanced, cozier, and more updated. A large custom valance is an updated variation on the old swag valances, with few folds, a center pleat, and cascade sides, over the Hunter Douglas Silhouettes at the window. The smaller scale pattern defers to the floral of the sofa, but is interesting when you can consider it. A contrast blue lining, and the blush pink patterned fabric, are strong enough to work with more assertive aspects of the room. Details, such as the buttons at the top of the pleats, the contrast cording at the top of the valance, and the crystal bead trim, are perfect for a traditional client, who is nourished by the complexity of detail in a space..
