Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles 10th Annual Southeastern Designer Showhouse & Gardens opened last week, bringing together designers from across the Southeast to celebrate the beauty and splendor of Atlanta in honor of Hope Heals. The showhouse is open through May 11th and benefits Hope Heals Camp, a nonprofit organization that offers resources to children and families experiencing disabilities. The fundraiser will showcase a newly built residence by Cole Construction in collaboration with architect William T. Baker, landscape architect Land Plus Associates, and interior specification design team SOURCE. Tours of the Showhouse will feature engaging events and demonstrations, adding a lively atmosphere while still maintaining the beauty, grandeur, and tradition that make this event unique.

Located in Buckhead’s highly sought-after Tuxedo Park, classical character will be found throughout the custom-built home including a striking fieldstone-clad façade, hand-carved limestone detailing, and a cedar shake roof, all evoking the atmosphere of an English manor one might find in the Costwolds. The home includes seven bedrooms, six full baths, two powder rooms, a kitchen, a family room, living room, and office, as well as a terrace level dedicated to wellness, lounging, and an in-law suite, with amenities including a media room and bar, gym, sauna, cold plunge, and a golf simulator. The home is designed to be approachable and livable with numerous open spaces for entertaining and gathering, as well as private spaces for each family member.

“We’re excited to have so many renowned designers, demonstrators, and sponsors contributing to this year’s Designer Showhouse, making this home truly remarkable,” says Elizabeth Ralls, Publisher of Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles. “We’re also proud to partner with our new beneficiary, Hope Heals, to support their mission of offering a compassionate experience for children and families affected by illness, disabilities, and other life challenges.”

Let’s take a peek inside some of our favorite rooms!

For the dining room, designer Melanie Turner selected all fabrics from Schumacher and wallpaper from Iksel, via Schumacher.

The “Birds of a Feather” ensuite came to life through a collaborative partnership of three brands looking to showcase their brands, show the power of collaboration, and pool their collective efforts to make a big imprint on a national Showhouse and the design industry as a whole!

When Alexandre was asked to design the bunk room, she thought about some of her favorite Agatha Christie mysteries. The stories were often set during elaborate house parties in beautiful manors. “I loved the idea of creating a special space for some of the young, single guests to share while attending the events,” she said. “The characters always included a dashing adventurer! And a studious scientist! Of course, there was also a handsome athlete who was the life of the party. And who could forget the shy young secretary, quietly observing it all? I imagined all of these guests sharing a space and laughing and happy at the end of each day’s activities.”
