In the Americana Bedroom, where did the Flag and the Bowling Pins come from? Loved the house! Simply gorgeous!

I love the Camden tufted bed and would like to order it in the same fabric. What is the name of the color?

The house is stunning! The architects did a wonderful job preserving the historical bones of the house. The floors and walls reflect the beautiful workmanship of an era gone by. The designers complimented the historical heritage and yet updated it as well. There are large closets in every room as well as terrific storage areas. The house is so well insulated, every nook and cranny of storage space is going to be usable throughout the hot Georgia summers. The ceiling of the master bedroom closet has been painted a deep coral, which is also picked up in the painting over the tub, the linens on the bed, and carried outside to the pillows and cushions on the front porch swing. The house is surrounded by gorgeous, colorful landscaping. There is a darling pond across the street from the house and next to the house is a towering magnolia tree that is over 100 years old. When you are in the house you realize, like with any wonderful home, that it is the people inside who bring the house to life, not the things in the room. It’s an exceptional house, if you are in the area, you really should come down to Senoia and take a look for yourself.

The exterior of the house is beautiful. Porch is a showstopper. However, the interior photographs, as so many others have suggested, come across as predictable and uninspired.
As a long-time admirer of all-things “Southern Living,” I am surprised by this presentation.
My hope is that a live tour of the home is much more interesting and compelling than the effect portrayed via the website.
Also, the website tour was tedious and the viewing experience diminished by the ever-present, and intrusive corporate sponsorships. Lastly, I am a very big fan of white and monochromatic interiors; white and neutrals can be absolutely stunning; but somehow this project seems to have missed the mark.

With all the wonderful products Ballard offers I really had high expectations for this design. Unfortunately, it ended up being a total let down. I was hoping to see some orange (such a hot color right now), but instead we get white on white with a side of black (boring). C’mon SL & BD, you can do better!
