Shop Kay's Look: South of Market

If you’ve fallen in love with Kay’s fresh take on combining simple elegance with rustic texture, you’re in luck. Nearly all of the iconic furnishings, light fixtures, wall art, and accessories that add rich patina to her beach house came from Kay’s shop, South of Market, which has two outposts in Atlanta (Virginia Highland and Buckhead) and one in Charleston, South Carolina.

Call 404/995-9399 or visit southofmarket.biz for more information.

Despite the snug dimensions of 9-year-old Jack’s room, Kay designed this wide headboard for a pair of twin beds as a more sophisticated alternative to bunk beds that he’d soon outgrow. “This space was really vanilla before—just a tiny drywall box,” she says. “The upholstered headboard adds softness and makes the room so much more inviting. It’s everyone’s favorite design feature of the house.”
