Description
Classic Southern charm lovingly refreshed in both style and comfort
Traditional style stands the test of time. That is the mantra for James Farmer's aesthetic. Classic tastes melded with fresh approaches for how we live and love in homes. In these homes high style and relaxed comfort are displayed hand in hand. Discover antiques mixed with new upholstery, collections and art displayed against pattern and textured wall coverings, and layers of jute, sisal, and wood grounding the floors while doses of intentional color keep the rooms personable.
From a grand Connecticut country home to a stately St. Louis house or a columned antebellum Alabama home, Farmer's style travels the country to set the tone for the lives of his clients. Homes in the city, the mountains, the country, and coastal locales are all reflected in this journey while being rooted in Southern design.
Reviews
"Arriving Home: A Gracious Southern Welcome, offers us another opportunity to fawn over [Farmer's] timeless Southern aesthetic -- a mixture of antiques, art, pops of color, and oodles of rich pattern and texture."--Jenna Bratcher "StyleBlueprint" (12/14/2021 12:00:00 AM)
"Southern hospitality is famous for a reason, and these charming homes exemplify that welcoming vibe with big porches, comfy furniture and lovingly displayed heirlooms. Arriving Home: A Gracious Southern Welcome includes 10 projects by Georgia designer and author James T. Farmer III, which illustrate how this decor style plays out not just in a columned Alabama mansion, but a farmhouse or mountain retreat, among other projects."--Wendy Jacob "House & Home" (8/11/2020 12:00:00 AM)
