Southern charm and poise are the first things you may notice about Jennifer Suddes, of Atlanta's Magnolia House Design Group. The drawl when she talks reminds you of a Gone With the Wind episode and mint Juleps. However, it is her well trained eye for quality, craftsmanship, furnishings and textiles, her timeless style and designs that set her apart as a master in her industry.

Upon entry to the residence at 132 Grace Point Way, the foyer light blends the transparent with the flecks of gold and the rest is history. The blend of textures, captivating centerpieces, doorhandles and knobs, each piece is thoughtfully placed. Warm rugs float just below your feet as lamps and custom lighting provide the ideal glow for entertaining or Thanksgiving dinner. Just beyond the kitchen is an outdoor patio area with teak furniture surrounding the pool, intimate seating around the exterior fireplace with touches of Magnolia House Design on the mantel and side tables.
