Charleston Symphony Orchestra Designer House – Details of Our Room!

by | Apr 27, 2015 | Blog, Uncategorized

We had the pleasure to be a part of the Charleston Symphony Orchestra Designer Showcase Home this year and I can’t wait to tell you all about it!  For those of you who aren’t local, the Showcase Home is put on by the Symphony Orchestra League of Charleston, and the proceeds go towards student scholarships, which total more than $30,000 annually.  The Charleston Symphony Orchestra League’s 38th Annual Designer Showhouse at 50 Hasell Street is an antebellum treasure located in the heart of downtown Charleston. Built in 1846, the parsonage of St. Johannes Lutheran Church is an imposing two-story Single House with double piazzas and fireplaces in nearly all of the spacious, high-ceilinged rooms. 

It was for such a great cause and now that this event has come and gone, I wanted to share with you some photos that were taken by one of our favorite photographers, Patrick Brickman.

We were thrilled to have received two rooms in this year’s home.  The upstairs sitting room, and piazza.  Because the house will be turned into a wedding venue and Inn, we wanted to keep the design slightly feminine and very comfortable as this would be a lovely room for guests to sit and relax after a long day sight seeing or a tiring year wedding planning!

When walking through our space, I was immediately drawn to the fireplace surround, which is a vintage tile with specs of mint green throughout.  We took that tile, and made it the inspiration of the room, pulling that mint green color out in the fabrics, pillows and accents in the room.  We created layers of texture and color, which is a signature of our look in the store.

Most furniture and accessories, like in our store, are sourced in the South or made in Charleston.  We take pride in the beautiful craftsmen that are just around the corner from us!

One of my favorite parts of the room is the closet that we turned into a writing area.  Our faux finisher, Crystal Eadie Miller, created a beautiful backdrop, that accents the colors in the room, and it’s a great area for a guest to sit and write a note, or in a journal while visiting this beautiful home.

 The piazza we designed was on the second floor, and looks out the the stunning new garden in the back yard.  Sounds of the water dropping in the fountain immediately creates a relaxing feeling and the gorgeous teak furniture invites you to rest your feet and relax a while.
