Old World Charm – Kara Childress

Old World Charm

The warm and inviting interiors of Kara Childress’ personal residence reflect an essential interlacing of old and new—capturing timeless beauty while honoring the patina of Old World elements and embracing the ease of contemporary living.

The Italian-style structure, with its enduring architectural details and finely crafted proportions, offers a soulful backdrop for layered furnishings, curated lighting, and Kara’s personal collection of antiques. Every room tells a story, from the well-worn textures that speak of history to the thoughtfully placed modern touches that bring freshness and light.

A particularly distinctive feature is her firm’s in-house design atelier, where the daily workings of Kara Childress, Inc. unfold. Seamlessly integrated into the home, it blurs the boundaries between personal and professional life, embodying Kara’s belief that beauty and functionality can coexist in every facet of living.
