The Sapphire Affair
Buckhead, Atlanta | Summer Thornton Design | Completed 2024

Some houses have a history. Others have a reputation. Set within one of Buckhead's most storied estates, The Sapphire Affair is a study in aristocratic extravagance. Saturated cobalt, lustrous silk, and meticulously tailored millwork lend a certain theatrical grandeur to a home already steeped in history. Conceived for a distinguished household, the interiors indulge in the pleasures of high society, where tradition meets a rather audacious sense of occasion.

Developed during my tenure at Summer Thornton Design, I contributed to design development and selections, independently designed the custom bar millwork and banquette, and produced comprehensive construction documentation. My role extended through technical specification, material vetting, contractor coordination, and on-site problem-solving, culminating in a demanding, deadline-driven installation.
