Bespoke Wallpaper Collaboration with Paper Mills for Serenbe

This Thursday, September 8, 2016 marks the VIP opening (consider yourself cordially invited) of the annual Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles' Serenbe showhouse... and the debut of our first ever product design (EEEK!), a bespoke wallpaper mural based on our interpretation of a modern southern landscape, which we created in deep, soulful collaboration with one of our favorite artists & wallpaper designers, Amy Mills of Paper Mills in California. 

We cannot wait to share loads of images with y'all from the event at Serenbe later this week, and you'll certainly see it in print in the December issue of AH&L, but in the meantime please take a few moments to follow our cross-country creative collaboration journey with Amy in this absolutely lovely short film about the project. 

You can also follow along with the hashtags #serenbetextilelofts &  #clothandkindpluspapermills on Instagram but we definitely hope to see you in the flesh on Thursday night!

Serenbe & Chairish

We've been obsessed with Chairish since their launch, and have sourced many a vintage find for our clients there, so it brings us great pleasure to announce that CLOTH & KIND is now selling our curated, one-of-a-kind wares on the site.

We could think of no better way to launch our partnership with Chairish than by featuring many of the treasures that we incorporated in one of our latest projects, the Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles Serenbe showhouse.

You're Invited! Serenbe Opening Night

Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles // Home for the Holidays

ABOUT THE SHOWHOUSE // Several months ago, we received the distinct honor of being invited to design a space in the prestigious Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles' Home for the Holidays showhouse. The annual showhouse is a one-of-a-kind holiday experience and in 2014 it featured a newly constructed English-style home in Atlanta’s upscale Buckhead neighborhood. The 7,200-square-foot home built by Sheehan Built Homes was inspired by the arts and crafts style developed by Sir Edwin Lutyens of England in the late 1800s and early 1900s. A stone and brick façade carries the steep roof with large windows and cut stone quoins and headers, reminiscent of Lutyens designs, throughout. The interior boasts four bedrooms and four bathrooms along with a study and sitting room. Perched atop a hill, the home’s large-scale backyard is a focal point featuring a heavily canopied landscape.  The luxury home showcases the work of acclaimed local and national designers (eeeek... that includes us!!) who were selected to put their touches on each room to create a true designer showhouse. The home was open to the public for tours in November and early December 2014 and proceeds from the event benefitted the Southeastern Horticultural Society’s Learning Gardens and Farms

ABOUT CLOTH & KIND'S SPACES //  Given the tucked away location of the vestibule and bonus room, on the second floor - above the three car garage, we were inspired to turn the adjoining spaces into an alluring destination in the home - a seductive and modern day speakeasy.  A cheeky nod to the blind tiger, as speakeasies were often referred to during the prohibition era, we swathed the walls of the vestibule in ZAK+FOX’s luxurious Khaden tiger print fabric.  Dark and sultry trim, ceilings and walls in Sydney Harbour Paint’s Jaguar sets the mood and creates the ideal backdrop upon which a myriad of geometric shapes are echoed throughout the bonus room in watery shades of cream, blue & indigo, plum, blush pink and neutral. Just as speakeasies did in their day, the bonus room beckons with promises of lounging and frivolity - cocktails, cards, dancing and an abundance of comfortable seating in an inviting salon.  Paired with a mid-century bar, and a trio of old rail car barstools found on the side of the road, saddling up to the bar has never been so stylish. True to CLOTH & KIND’s vibe, the two spaces are layered with history and heart, with story and substance. The ultimate mix of vintage, modern, textures, art, colors and of course, layers upon layers of unique textiles create the ultimate destination in this stately Habersham home. And, PS, we just had a blast designing these spaces! You can find full coverage of the house, including our spaces, in the February 2015 issue of Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles magazine. Please also enjoy these photos, taken by our dear photographer Sarah Dorio, for our Portfolio.

Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles Showhouse

CLOTH & KIND has been invited to design a room in this stunning new home on Habersham Road for the Atlanta Homes & LifestylesHome for the Holidays showhouse this winter.

Keep your eyes peeled here on our Journal for some sneak peeks at what we're scheming in the coming months... and if you live in Atlanta, be sure to mark your calendars for November 16 - December 7 which is when the house will be open to the public. We'd love to see y'all there!
