Making His Way
Growing up in working-class Pittsburgh, Richard Anuszkiewicz wasn’t exactly immersed in luxury materials and interior design inspiration. Still, he knew from a young age he wanted to study design professionally and pursue it as a career. And as a child, he began taking steps to make it happen. “Ever since I can remember, art, architecture […]
Design in Bloom
Once Flower magazine announced Nashville would be the location for its 2025 Designer Show House — and enlisted 23 high-profile interior design firms to create inspirational interiors within the home — we knew it was going to be something out of the ordinary. And once the actual property being used was revealed, we knew […]
This Time, it’s Personal.
A 2016 to-the-studs renovation gave the Folk Victorian cottage on Russell Street a dignified new beginning — space to trace another hundred years of lazy Sundays and New Year’s toasts. It deserved an earned celebration, including a 2018 Historic Preservation Award from Nashville’s Metropolitan Historical Commission. But for the current owners, the East Nashville […]
Artist Spotlight: Larry Stewart
Growing up in Laguna Beach, California, Larry Stewart was always focused on sports. Football, basketball, surfing — he excelled at it all. But the artist inside was always there. “I was always doodling in my notes,” he said. “And they looked beautiful, but I probably didn’t read back over the actual notes.” He went to […]
Let Them Cook
Maybe you cook a lot. Maybe you never cook but love to host. Maybe your kids prefer to do their homework at a breakfast bar and maybe your husband dreams of a scullery kitchen that keeps the shrimp shells and greasy sauciers safely out of sight. Every homeowner has their kitchen particulars. And once the […]
A Collected Life
From a young age Bebe Buell noticed that when her mother decorated, she would keep things grouped together in their like category. All the birds would be in one place. All the glass eggs in another. Little by little, her mother started small collections for her too, like a little shoe collection, and her Desert […]
Continuing the Discourse
In 2018, four women came together with a mission and a message — that all the disparate design communities could come together to change the discourse of what a new and improving Nashville could be. To open the door for new voices to be heard in how we grow as a city and as a […]
A Return to the South
Every day of the life of designer Christopher Todd is completely different from the day before. And probably won’t be anything like tomorrow. That’s because he doesn’t hold himself back from practicing any of the different genres of design that he loves, including interiors, events, florals and holidays, which is where he started, and how […]
Welcome Home, Again
When you gotta go, you gotta go. And no one knows that more than people who work in sports, and the families that love them. So in July 2024 when B.J. Callaghan was hired as the head coach of the Nashville Soccer Club, the second in the team’s history, he and his wife Leigh packed […]
Myers, and the Designers
Hilary Steve joined the Myers Flooring Nashville team in August 2014, but according to her she has been in the industry since I was 16. Hilary grew up in Dalton, Georgia, known as the “Carpet Capital of the World,” in part because it was producing more than 80 percent of the world’s carpet by 1960. […]
