I grew up in a saltbox-style home that my great-grandfather built here in Atlanta when it was just a small town. My parents bought the house from my grandmother and renovated it, adding a guest house above the garage where my grandmother eventually lived when I was growing up. The house was on top of a hill and was a mix of old heirlooms, me and my sisters’ artwork, eclectic touches, and family memories. Each spring, six cherry trees bloomed around the house throwing pink light into the rooms. This home was formative in defining the meaning of “home” for me and will always be a touchstone in my passion for residential design.

The day we moved out of the house I grabbed an old bucket of architectural drawings – sketches of the renovations my parents completed on the house, the landscaping plans, and even some old floorplans with my mom’s notes in pencil on top. After years of dragging this old bucket of drawings around, I finally have my own place to hang them in, and turned to Framebridge to preserve them in classic gold frames!
