I'm literally counting down the days until this book is released. It comes out on March 6th. I'm obsessed with Southern architecture and have piles of books on plantations, hotels, and homes. I can curl up on the sofa and flip through the same book a million times. I never get bored looking over houses. They don't even have to be old homes but just Southern style homes. If I could grow up to become anything I wanted I'd be a wealthy Southern Belle with a big Southern mansion.
Here's another fantastic book by Ken Tate. Ken Tate is a very talented architect here in Mississippi. He has done a lot of work in Louisiana as well. He is truly a genius and I would do anything to meet him. I told my hubby one day I'd love to have Mr. Tate build us a dream home. His work is magnificent.
Lord, girl, your music has my foot tappin'. We're going to Louisiana the end of April for a family gathering. Can't wait. I'm also in love with Southern architecture. Got a lovely book about the homes in St. Francisville during the holidays.
ReplyDeleteYou've got a great blog. New follower here!
Ha, I'm happy to hear that you love the music. I'd love to hear more about your book on St. Francisville. I love the Greenwood Plantation in St. Francesville. I'm so happy I found you.
DeleteLooks like a fabulous book!
ReplyDeleteI think I got "lost" in life and took a wrong turn somewhere along the way. I'm certain that I should have been born and raised in the south!

You're too funny. I do love the South. However, there are some beautiful homes and lovely areas in your area of the country too. I think if I were to move out of the south I'd head up your way.
DeleteSouthern homes do have great architecture :)
ReplyDeleteSouthern Homes are the best. I will have to be on the lookout for those books.
ReplyDeleteOh my that house is stunning! All you need is a tall glass of sweet tea!

I agree, KK. All I need a glass of sweet tea and it would be the perfect utopia.
DeleteThank you for posting about the Coming Home book. I'm a lover too of Southern architecture and decorating. I'm adding this one to my book list.
ReplyDeleteBTW...you have a beautiful blog. I'm not sure how I stumbled upon it, but I look forward to reading more of your posts.
