The style is high, the competition is stiff, and the doors are open! Attend for a rare chance to rub elbows with Atlanta’s best and brightest interiors experts or even compete for national recognition on Bravo TV. Another plus?

Last night Walker Zanger hosted AH&L’s annual party to honor the Kitchen and Bath of the Year contest winners of 2007. Jackie Naylor, Todd Pritchett, Frank Neely, and Matthew Quinn were all in attendance and accepted their trophy (or trophies!) for their outstanding kitchen or bath.
And stay tuned! In the January issue we’ll unveil the 2008 Kitchen of the Year (it’s like nothing you’ve ever seen in AH&L!), as well as the hot kitchen trends local designers are seeing around the city.

DIFFA’s Dining By Design tabletop extravaganza swirled into Atlanta in late October, to the delight of many local designers and businesses bringing their creative edge to new heights in the name of AIDS. The event, held at Mason Murer, drew some of the city’s top talents.
Assistant Editor Kelly Kunkel and I got a sneak preview before the main event. Our favorites? The Airstream Trailor serving as the backdrop for Sandy Thigpen for Design Within Reach’s tabletop replete with mason jar vases and gerber daisies; Waldenour’s all-natural, organic vignettes, and Fio Pichardo of OwenLawrence’s wedding table (Disclaimer: We’re a little biased here; Kelly’s getting married in July and I just tied the knot in September. If only we could have been so lucky to have Fio design our extravaganzas!)

Statistics of Louvre Atlanta’s first year has directors on High
Opening simultaneously at the High Museum on Tuesday, October 16th, is the second year of Louvre Atlanta: The Louvre and the Ancient World and Inspring Impressionism, a unique juxtaposition of masterpieces by Monet, Cezanne and Degas with works by Titian, Rubens and Fragonard. On Tuesday, director Michael Shapiro and Louvre director Henri Loyrette opened the two exhibits for the media and revealed the astonishing success of year one: an average of 1,600 visitors coming through the High per day, or an estimated half-million in its first year. And one can only expect attendance to skyrocket with this brilliant duo of exhibits, in what is most likely the largest concentration of great art at the High since the Olympics.
