A very cool Mid-Century Modern Home featured in the AJC ;-)

November 2nd, 2011
by vanessa

So the other day I got a phone call from a guy who said he worked for the AJC, at first I thought he was going to try and sell me some kind of advertising package, but when he started explaining how he was a reporter who focused writing about personal residences for the AJC Homefinder section, my ears pricked up and my heart started beating fast. You see, I’ve always enjoyed getting attention, ever since I was an obnoxious, snot-nosed little kid I would do all kinds of morally wrong things just to get my mom’s attention. This is what happens when you are the only child for 8 years and then all of a sudden you get 2 younger siblings. So when the reporter/photographer asked if he could photograph my house and write a little blurb about my business and decor aesthetic I didn’t say “yes,”  I said: “ABSO-FRIGGIN-LUTELY!” Then put the phone down and sprung into consecutive back-flipps.

Ok so now that my ego is over-inflated here are some pictures of my oh-so-fabulous Mid-Century Modern Home that I have tenderly renovated and decorated of the years. Thanks for reading ;-) For the full Article with all the Juicy Details CLICK HERE   ** Disclaimer:  Cheesy subtitles were taken from AJC Article.

The furnishings and art have been collected over the years and include a classic Eames lounge chair.

Reilly's experimental design -- and personality --is seen in areas such as the upstairs Hollywood-style bathroom.

“When I’m having a bad day, I will take it out on my house and re-¿arrange the furniture,” Vanessa Reilly says. “When I get the urge to move, which is about once a year, I will just call my painter instead."

The dining room features a 78-inch oval Saarinen marble dining table that Reilly said she drooled over for several years before buying it.

The kitchen is simple with a punchy green back splash and a big picture window that overlooks the backyard.

Reilly painted the bedroom walls a soft grey blue and kept the furnishings simple. Because of the big picture window she chose a low rise IKEA platform bed. The light birch finish of the bed matches the light wood ceilings.

The foyer has five skylights, an artist console with tiny drawers for storing paint, and a vintage Tomesode kimono.

Vanessa Reilly bought her Atlanta home in 2008. She originally hated the man-made berm in the front yard, but has grown to love it over the years. "The berm shields the home from the street, providing an abundance of privacy," she says.

Dick and Jane’s Mid-Century Modern Makeover!! (Before & After Pics)

November 5th, 2010
by vanessa

This one was fun!! The 3597 Eaglerock Dr. already had GREAT BONES and sits on one the most coveted lots in the Mid-Century Modern neighborhood of NORTHCREST! The lot is over an ACRE and the gardens have been loved and nurtured over the years to provide some of the most spectacular fruits and flowers!

Mr. and Mrs. Dingler lived and loved this house for close to 30 years and they had the basement dug out by hand to create a wonderful large office where Mr. Dingler could keep track of their day to day finances. The clean Mid-Century Modern lines of this house were left intact while we decided to go with a more modern gray color pallet for the outside and cool whites and blues for the interior. Wood Floors were added as well as a completely new kitchen and baths. All the electrical was updated along with some hip contemporary lighting that had a MCM twist. The copper plumbing is new and the “shag” a.k.a frieze carpet in the den added an element of cozy-class. The original hood-vent, which previously displayed an electric fireplace was left for the new owners to decide what they wanted to do with it. Some people like it some don’t. I personally think it gives the home a more original feeling and keeps in line with how the builders/ designers wanted it back in the 1960′s (but to each his own).

Northcrest was featured in the Atomic Ranch issue last winter. If you are interested in finding out more about this article please email me and I’ll send you a copy! Interested in finding out where to buy Mid-Century Modern Original pieces? Check out City Issue, Antique Factory and Highland Row!!

Enjoy looking at the dramatic changes and please forward to your friends and/or family who is looking for their very own Mid-Century Modern Home to call their own. This house is for sale and offered at $300,000.

Are you a MCM Junkie?

May 29th, 2010
by vanessa

I don’t know what it is, but around this time of year I start getting the itch – the furniture bug itch that is. Call me obsessive, call me compulsive but when it comes to Mid-Century Modern Furniture (and MCM Homes) I go a little nuts. MCM stuff is like crack, it started off as an interest and then all of a sudden I had a full blown habit of buyer Knoll tables and Eames Lounges deep down

March 23rd, 2010
by vanessa

Since the before and after pics of 3535 Summitridge Drive were such a smashing success with my MCM friends I decided to put together a compilation of 3398 Lori Lane. This home has already been sold (sorry). But, you will be happy to know the owners are the coolest Modernists I know. They have taken this house to a whole new level with their DWR furniture and their one-of-a-kind
