New Atlanta Home

A devastating fire forced homeowners Bonneau and Jennifer Ansley to build a new home. They chose a spot in the Peachtree Battle neighborhood in Atlanta and built a five-bedroom Dutch Colonial home. Architect Charles Heydt designed the home to look like it's been part of the established neighborhood for years.<br /><br /><br /><img id="cboxPhoto" src="http://www.atlantahomesmag.com/sites/default/files/images/3/article_portfolio/201_0.jpg" style="margin: auto; border: medium none; display: block; float: none; cursor: pointer;" />A façade of Cashiers, North Carolina, fieldstone and a large front porch ensure that this newly constructed Dutch Colonial home complements its mature neighborhood.<br /><br /><img id="cboxPhoto" src="http://www.atlantahomesmag.com/sites/default/files/images/3/article_portfolio/201_1.jpg" style="margin: auto; border: medium none; display: block; float: none; cursor: pointer;" />The Ansleys in their porch.<br /><br /><img id="cboxPhoto" src="http://www.atlantahomesmag.com/sites/default/files/images/3/article_portfolio/201_2.jpg" style="margin: auto; border: medium none; display: block; float: none; cursor: pointer;" />The Ansleys' Boykin spaniel, Bodie, in the foyer of their new home.

Provencal Style in London

Happy it's Friday? So am I. This is such a lovely house. It is in London and looks quite old but was actually built only a few years ago. Decorated by its owners, Binny and Graham Hudson, full of flea market finds and vintage items, the house is warm and friendly.<br /><br /><img alt="" class="imagecache-body_full" src="http://www.mixr.se/sites/mixr.se/files/imagecache/body_full/images/London_0.jpg" title="" /><br />Binny Hudson is a stylist and florist and constantly takes beautiful plants from the small garden into the house.<br /><br /><img alt="" class="imagecache-body_full" src="http://www.mixr.se/sites/mixr.se/files/imagecache/body_full/images/London3_0.jpg" title="" /><br /><br />Old style furniture in the study.The armchair comes from a theatre and the metal desk is French. Steel beams reveal that the house is not nearly as old as one might think.<br /><br /><img alt="" class="imagecache-body_full" src="http://www.mixr.se/sites/mixr.se/files/imagecache/body_full/images/London1_0.jpg" title="" /><br />In the kitchen an old-fashioned butcher's bench, which is one of Binny Hudson's dearest treasures, is topped with vintage and flea market items. Framed chalkboards, one for every day. I love the kitchen door.<br /><br /><weekday binny="" designed="" has="" the="" doors="" are="" purchased="" at="" flea="" markets="" and="" comes="" from="" a="" disused=""><img alt="" class="imagecache-body_full" src="http://www.mixr.se/sites/mixr.se/files/imagecache/body_full/images/London2_0.jpg" title="" /><br />Subway tiles, white painted cabinets and island. Notice how interesting the collection of rolling pins looks displayed on the wall by the door.<br /><br />I would have loved to see the rest of the rooms but unfortunately these were the only photographs available.<br /><br />Hope you enjoyed this mini tour! Will you come back tomorrow?<br /><br />All images from <a href="http://www.mixr.se/">here</a>.<br /></weekday>
