Southern Living Idea House 2012 (Senoia, Georgia)
It took nearly a year for Southern Living magazine and the Idea House Team to transform this tired 1830s farmhouse into Southern Living Idea House 2012 but the final result was worth the wait. The outcome is a stylish yet comfortable home that offers all the modern day comforts while retaining an old world charm of days gone by.
As screens are pretty much a must in Southern states throughout spring and summer months, the designers (Historical Concepts / Tracery Interiors) knew that they had to source a screen solution that is elegant yet offers the needed protection from the sun and mosquitoes. Their selection – Phantom`s Executive motorized screens – offers all of that and more. Surface mounted to the frame of the porch, the screens are lowered only when needed, staying hidden for the rest of the time. The dark color of the mesh provides great visibility, thereby ensuring that the views to the backyard are not compromised even when the screens are in use.
