  • Karen Mooney is the President of Ballard Designs and while her Atlanta home features classic pieces from the company, she has beautifully and seamlessly mixed in flea market finds, Ikea pieces and more to ensure that her home does not feel like a showroom!
    Karen's home has lots of neutrals but her basement is a different situation entirely! Bold, bright colors and a custom built bar that features rose on tap is the main attraction! ENJOY!

    I really enjoyed her presentation. Instead of droning on and name dropping about designers and artists, she had an animated voice and told us about the things she loves. Loved it.

    It’s so nice to see a family that has grown with a single house and neighborhood throughout all the stages of their lives. I love how practical and realistic her tips are for those of us with much less money. Nice pick, Homeworthy!

    This is the best tour ever. So nice to see a real family home and listen to a person who has actually raised a family, been aware of budgets and understands the reality of living vs looking at a house.

    Such a lovely presentation and by someone who was not pretentious and has taken time off over the years to make it extremely family friendly and as another viewer stated no name-dropping of who painted what... A truly enjoyable video

    I am so not a neutral person, but am delighted that I gave this tour a chance. She was marvelous. Practical and down-to-earth with lots of useful suggestions. And the home at least has a lot of wonderful pattern and texture. The basement was fabulous and I would live down there!

    She has an important job but, by golly, she is just so open and outgoing! I wish she lived next door. I want to thank her for sharing her home, her secret inspirations, and the joy she feels in her home. One of my favorite tours.

  • @kathyestes6577
    @kathyestes6577 Рік тому +22

    What an enjoyable tour!!!
    She is the only person I ever heard mention that she doesn’t need photos of family on the walls. Most people love to put photos of themselves in their space but I don’t lean that way either. I imagine it would be fun to be a friend of hers because she clearly wants people to feel at home in her home. That is more important than impressing others with your “stuff”.

    I thought the sunroom was my favorite, with all the windows and views. Then she took us to the basement! Are you kidding me!!!! As a lover of darks and color, this room blew my mind. The deep, saturated jewel tones were so enveloping , like a cozy hug. It felt so unique to any space I have ever seen. A lesson to listen to your husband. He definitely had a vision. And together you created it.

  • @Donna-ct2gn
    @Donna-ct2gn Рік тому +4

    She's a great salesperson so no wonder she's now president of Ballard. I especially like what she did to the basement. Peacock blue really works well and brings everything together. Such talent to mix high-end pieces with functional Ikea, which is what I do on a limited income. She leans on Bunny Williams, my all-time favorite designer, for inspiration, so I guess that's why I like her decorating scheme: Bunny Williams Part Two. Good job, lady!

    I've been involved in housing design, construction and sales over the course of four decades, and I often feel like I've quite simply seen all there is to see, but I can say with honesty I really enjoyed this tour. I felt like I was walking through the house with a glass of wine in hand as I listened to Karen tell me about her home and it's many features. Her conversation never got dull, and she seems very down-to-earth in a picture-perfect environment, which is a rare enough combination. On a side note, I'll wager there was some friction between neighbours when that Monster House was built next door.

  • @carrie3537

    She’s really been influenced by Bunny Williams with seating numbers and tables close for use. Bunny the best. This woman is funny, talking about her house and its refreshing. I also wonder being a graphic artist how she transitioned from color in her graphics toward neutrals. Very interesting.

    has truly her own aesthetic that is relaxed yet extremely elegant throughout the house.

    What a beautiful home! I love how Karen and her family up-dated each area with her eclectic taste! Everything blends without being over baring.
    It's an "Art Director's home!" It's definitely a family-friendly gathering place that pulls you in like an artist tour!
    The sun- porch was gorgeous, too! I would have loved to have seen the type of pool that they put in; off of the sun room! Maybe a lap pool! 🏊‍♀️

    Can see alot of Karen's **graphic intelligence in placement of objects/ furnishings, textural juxtapositions. A gentle dynamism is created throughout. The light *quality (warm, luminous) - both naturally, as well as Karen's electrical choices - are really wonderful in this handsome place. -Heck of a *luscious "bungalow," and interesting sounding neighborhood, generally, given Karen's description. -*Enjoyed this, enjoyed our hostess, and my thanks.

    I loved the idea of purchasing a piece of high end art in the form of a scarf and turning into a beautiful piece of wall art. Genius! Also liked that she kept it simple with white subway tile in all showers and then mixed it up with different tile for the shower flooring. More great ideas for hi/lo: Ikea cabinets, inexpensive privacy shades behind stationary Roman shades, indoor/outdoor rugs in guest bathroom, Instapot in the dining room cubbard, etched privacy glass in the bathrooms, and so much more. Charming home and charming host! Thanks Homeworthy.

    I love the basement and the mix of colors! A tad of animal print in each room is a great idea. Her creativity and her ability to mix less expensive things with pricier items is a bit a genius, which I admire. I'm going to "borrow" some of her ideas. My guest room is also the library. I have a coffee bar, a fridge, and, of course, reading material. This was one of my faves. Thank you!
