Designer Karen Kerns and I have started work on our newest project, and we are SO excited to be working as a team with the homeowners in Atlanta and Armbruster Construction. This will be a complete gut and redo of a home in Destin on Holiday Isle. These are just a few of the BEFORE pictures. Keep up with our progress below from the link below.
Stay tuned—we can’t wait to share the progress and AFTER pics!

One of my most fun projects to date has been this pretty-in-pink office makeover. My client has great taste, and has worked retail most of her life (hence the one-of-a-kind hot pink fur coat as art). Her husband built this “lady-cave” as her office/spare room/get away space. It’s the perfect blend of Reese Witherspoon in Legally Blond meets Anna Wintour’s New York apartment. From the gold chandelier and hot pink velvet chair to the fashion-inspired gallery wall complete with fur handbag, I love every bit of it, and if I go missing—this is likely where you’ll find me. Enjoy!
Sometimes, you come across a furniture line that makes you get inspired in a way that’s totally not your style. It’s a little glam, a little steampunk, and a little romantic. That’s Nick Alain, formerly Luna Bella. From caged floor lamps to glass/shagreen nightstands to glam lighted mirrors, there’s a little something of everything. These pictures don’t do the line justice, it really is something to see! Check out their website for many more inspirational pieces!
Just like we need 5 different pair of evening shoes, we need 5 different living rooms to decorate in all different design styles, right?? While it’s the opposite of what I typically do for coastal design, I love the look and feel of an uber-contemporary interior. It has an urban and sleek look that dictates the whole design style. From plush velvet sofas to mirrored console pieces , I love this edgy and modern take on interiors. At Las Vegas market, we loved the inspiring vignettes of Resource Decor. Take a look at some of these contemporary cool snapshots from their Las Vegas showroom.
Viva Las Vegas! The Lovelace Team has just returned from Las Vegas Furniture Market with lots of new furniture, art, lamps, and accessories to make our showroom even more beautiful! The overall vibe was contemporary cool, with lots of bright gold and plush textures. The lighting was colored glass and sleek lines. Enjoy these inspirational lighting images to inspire your own home design! Stay tuned for lots more from some of our favorite vendors!
Karen Kerns and I are honored to have been asked to be a part of one of the newest and most exclusive design projects on 30-A, Costa Blanca. It is a 3-story, 14 unit condominium located directly on the beach at the west end of 30-A. Its architecture is a modern take on the clean and simplistic approach to design with white exteriors, glass balconies, and floor to ceiling expanse of windows. Interior details include quartz countertops, wood or stone flooring, and glass accent tiles to name a few. At the request of the investors and listing realtor, Royce Mitchell, we developed concept boards for 3 different floor plans with 3 different themes: Beachy Casual, Smooth Transitional, and Soft Contemporary.

It’s always inspiring to work in a place that looks like this! Enjoy these latest shots of the Lovelace Interiors Showroom. Which look is your favorite??
This is another look at ongoing staging projects in Sanctuary by the Sea that were recently furnished to sell. We wanted each of the units to have a distinct look– from soft, beachy casual to elegant and refined. Both have a completely different look, but are furnished to appeal to the majority of prospective buyers. Since furnishing, unit 2126 has been sold, but 1128 is still on the market.

Talk about a before and after! I got a phone call from a former client on a Sunday with a quick-turn around request: fully furnish her beach house (which was currently being used as a storage unit) by the following Saturday. Yep, you heard me right–6 days to transform this…..
into a place where her family could come to stay. The house sat vacant for months before we went to furnish it. I shopped around locally, as I had no time to order furniture. Since the house is directly on the beach.. (HELLO amazing view)
I chose to go with a color palette that reflected the outside surroundings of beautiful Blue Mountain Beach on 30a. Here is the finished product-ENJOY!
One of my co-designers, Karen Kerns and I have been chosen to partially stage 4 available units at Sanctuary by the Sea in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida. When the building was built, the developer kept a few units as investment properties, all of which have sat on the market for quite some time. When we talked with realtors and prospective clients, we realized the reason they weren’t getting the attention they deserved was the fact that they were a spatial furniture challenge. Most of the rooms are HUGE, and the average person can’t figure out how to lay out their furniture in such a large space. A small-scale sofa and pair of chairs gets swallowed in a 20’x30′ open concept living room. So, we were hired to furnish those “problem areas” to help prospective buyers really see the potential of each unit. It’s a night and day difference to see how the furniture makes the unit feel so much more homey and lived-in. A buyer can really envision themselves living there.
I’ve attached some before and afters to show what a difference furniture makes!
