The Borrowed View

A home created on the principle of “The

Borrowed View” lives big without an overload of

massive structure.

The eye incorporates the view beyond - whether

from room to room or the distant adjacent

landscape. The result is a layering, a sense of

being pulled into the next space, realizing there is

something beyond to experience but not

knowing exactly what it is.

The keys to successful “borrowed views” are

proportion, recognition of light as architecture, and

a sense of spatial continuity.

With an attached “potting shed”

and an original well fed by the

flow of Kennesaw Mountain, the

acre and a half lot is a gardener’s

paradise. All-season established

gardens, featured on public

television, include a large organic

vegetable garden, a woodland

path, a shade garden, and

areas filled with native plants.

The gravel driveway preserves

valuable rainwater and provides

a gentle announcement that

company is coming.

Nineteenth century style

French doors,

produced in Provence,

open into a

curtained foyer.

This transition from

the exterior world into the

private sphere follows a

well-loved European

tradition.

The window seats of the airy second floor

look down on the courtyard. The landing hall,

sitting area, bedroom, and bath with their

borrowed views have large closet/storage areas.

The house embraces a bluestone courtyard large

enough for a family wedding or perfect for

an intimate dinner.

Step into this very private space

from the garden room, the living room, or the

master bedroom to enjoy the antique gates, “piping

boy” fountain, and wood burning fireplace. Smell

the confederate jasmine and pick the mint

growing around the stone edges.

Old World patina and classical proportions combine

with a neutral palette and subtle design,

encouraging creativity.

The 42 by 22 foot living room accommodates media and

music, fireside chats, serious study, and

romping dogs and children.

The gracious living room leads to the

second hub of the home, a kitchen

designed for multiple cooks.

... and then there are

those who simply sit

at the table, waiting to

be tasters, watching

butterflies through

the courtyard

windows.

Here, some work from

the 19th century French

tailor’s table, others man

the stove and ovens, while

the washers and choppers

take over

the center ...

The first floor master suite looks out on the courtyard in one direction;

in the other, into a shade garden

12With its balance of elegance and comfort,

this is a house with stories yet to be written.

The flexible spaces can have a formal

flair, but the ever changing light of the sun

provides a playful rhythm throughout

the day, throughout house.

A garden room/playroom off the kitchen

leads into the courtyard.

A Mexican Napoleon reigns in the light bathed dining room.

A quiet sitting area off the living room provides a striking contrast to the spacious living room area.

Next to the kitchen and living room areas

is a cozy bedroom/study retreat with bath.

Its wood burning fireplace is surrounded

by a 19th century American vernacular

mantle in original paint. A wall of built-in

bookcases and views to the woods and

watershed below offer a timeless sense of

place in a modern world.
