Project Reveal: The Caldwell Home
Photography By: Rustic White
Project Scope: Furnishing and styling the entire first floor, including living, dining, and entry spaces, with custom drapery, artwork, and decorative accents, as well as designing a bonus room “man cave” retreat. The scope included space planning, sourcing, and full installation of furniture, textiles, and curated decor.
Project Location: Milton, GA
Overall Vibe: Transitional modern with a focus on clean lines, layered textures, and refined comfort. The aesthetic blends timeless elements with a fresh, streamlined sensibility tailored to the client’s taste for simplicity and sophistication.
The Entryway
The entryway sets the tone for this Milton retreat, welcoming guests with understated luxury. A sophisticated console with patterned doors anchors the space, its clean lines complemented by a large, ornate mirror that amplifies natural light. Fresh flowers in a simple vase add a touch of warmth, while a sculptural pendant light casts a soft glow over the wooden staircase. This area was designed to reflect our client’s appreciation for heritage, with every detail executed with precision, creating a first impression that lingers.
The Living Room
The journey begins in the living room, where warmth and sophistication converge. A striking brick fireplace serves as the focal point, its rustic texture softened by a sleek TV mounted above and flanked by custom white shelving. These shelves, meticulously curated with pottery and books, add a layer of character while maintaining clean lines. Two plush sofas, upholstered in neutral tones, invite relaxation, their elegance enhanced by textured pillows featuring subtle flower motifs, a nod to timeless tradition. At the center, a dark wood coffee table anchors the space, adorned with fresh tulips and sculptural accents, while a light-filled area rug ties the room together. This space reflects our client’s desire for a cozy yet refined gathering place. Framing the windows, custom drapery in a soft, tailored fabric completes the composition, an intentional design choice that adds height, softness, and a polished sense of finish to the room. This space reflects our client’s desire for a cozy yet refined gathering place.
The Dining Room
Moving into the dining space, the design elevates everyday moments into something extraordinary. A robust, dark wood table stands as the heart of the room, surrounded by upholstered chairs with brass-tipped legs that blend modern craftsmanship with classic appeal. Above, a striking abstract painting adds depth, its muted tones harmonizing with the neutral palette. A sleek sideboard, its geometric doors offering a hint of contemporary flair, holds decorative decanters and a crystal centerpiece, reflecting our client’s love for curated elegance. This room was crafted with intimate dinners in mind.
Cozy Corner
Beyond the main spaces, this home offers intimate retreats that invite quiet reflection. One such cozy spot, designed with a refined “man cave” in mind at the client’s request, features a plush sofa draped with a luxurious fur throw, while a timeless plaid ottoman provides a practical yet stylish surface for books and decor. A large abstract painting and a sculptural lamp add artistic flair, tying it all together with a sense of understated masculinity and personal comfort.
The Bathroom
Even the smallest spaces in this home exude timeless beauty. The bathroom features a vanity with a rich, gray finish, its clean design softened by floral wallpaper that brings nature indoors. Gold-accented sconces flank a sculptural mirror, their warm glow enhancing the space’s tranquility. These spaces were tailored to our client’s lifestyle and we love how it all came together.
