10 Design Ideas From The Pinewood Forest Idea Home

Pinewood Forest Idea Home--Designer Showhouse

I wasn’t able to attend the preview party for the Pinewood Forest Idea Home a couple of weeks ago but I had the opportunity to tour the house last weekend.

 The Pinewood Forest Idea Home is located outside of Atlanta in Fayetteville, GA.  The eco-friendly community is being designed with energy conservation, sustainable building practices and design creativity as the foundation.  Many of Atlanta’s top interior designers were tapped to design different rooms in the house and the spaces were both beautiful and inspiring.

Today I’m going to take you on a tour of the house and share 10 inspirational design ideas that I filed away for future use.  I think you’ll love them too!

THE EXTERIOR

One of the first things I noticed as I walked up to the house were the unique details.  The courtyard roof had the most beautiful carved wood beams and the perfect weathered finish.

The fence surrounding the house was crafted from woven branches and twigs. Such a creative twist for an exterior design detail.

THE DINING ROOM

The dining room, designed by Jennifer Balcos of Swoox Curated Consignment had such an eclectic and artistic vibe. The oversized artwork and the black and white grid rug were two of my favorite pieces.

The ceiling mounted curtain rods also caught my attention because they made the room feel so much taller and open.  This is a great idea for small rooms or space where window moldings might interfere with the rod placement.

 

THE LIVING ROOM

As you walked into the living room, designed by Dana Lynch Design, I noticed this large piece of artwork hung from the window frame.  And a piece of black and white art displayed on a standing easel.  I’m now smitten with the idea of not hanging art on the wall but displaying it in more creative ways.

 

THE KITCHEN

The kitchen, also designed by Dana Lynch was sleek and minimal.  The glass front cabinets added a fun design detail and kept the back wall from feeling heavy and dark.

 

THE BUTLER’S PANTRY

Right off the kitchen was the butler’s pantry with had so many creative details in it. This art piece was a showstopper and upon closer inspection, I realized it was made up of different color paint card held together by black plastic brads. #brilliant

Another feature of the butler’s pantry that I loved was this custom hanging iron shelf.  Such a cool idea!

 

THE LAUNDRY ROOM

Athens designer, Monica Stewart of Misfit House decorated the laundry room located around the corner from the butler’s pantry.  Although the space wasn’t large, the details she added made it a dramatic space.  The black walls and black cabinets gave the space lots of depth and I love the simple but stylish curtain hiding the storage shelf.

 

THE MASTER SUITE

The master suite, designed by Nikie Barfield was a tranquil retreat of soft, neutral colors. I loved the butterfly art that hung over the headboard and the console table turned nightstand.   If you have the space, a console table is a great alternative to a traditional nightstand and can serve as a vanity or desk as well.   The bench can easily be tucked under the table to save space.

 

GUEST BEDROOM

Two guest bedrooms and an office were on the second level of the house.  This small bedroom room designed by my friends Jennifer Schoenberger and Lindsey Hene of Elle + Vreeland Design House was so captivating. I loved the antique daybed and fabric canopy along with the eclectic mix of furniture and wall decor.

Jennifer and Lindsey’s space include this gallery wall that features a framed television that looks like a mirror when it’s not in use.  #detailsmakethedesign

 

GUEST BEDROOM/BATH

Julie Holloway designed the second bedroom and bath.  The bedroom featured a beautiful canopy bed from Restoration Hardware and the bathroom walls were covered in a beautiful floral paper from York.

 

LOUNGE SPACE/OFFICE

Down the hall from the bedrooms was a multi-room lounge space that could also serve as an office.  Jason Mitchell designed this space to feature large art panels of herons and a mix of furniture and accessories.

I loved the quilted pillows and the details on these furniture legs.

 

OUTDOOR COURTYARD

The courtyard outside the house was a entertainers dream.  Instead of traditional outdoor furniture, the centerpiece of the area was a large concrete and reclaimed wood dining set.

I loved these oversized woven light fixtures the hung above the table and the oversize art used to accessorize the space.

 

TWO-STORY TOWER

Just off the courtyard was a two-story tower designed by Sherry Hart.  The space could be a mother-in-laws suite or office/creative space and had the spiral staircase that provided access to the second level.

Sherry also incorporated this cute wet bar into the space.  I love the wall sconce and wallpaper accent.

Sherry is a master at designing spaces with a relaxed but stylish vibe. I love her creative use of common items like the basket wall art and wood bench turned display shelf.
