When an interior decorator buys a new home, does its decor become a showcase of the latest trends or a retreat that incorporates all the designer’s favorite things?
For Tim Bryant, it’s the latter.
“I’ve got a vast array of items I like in here,” said Bryant, owner of Tim Bryant Interiors. “The colors are warm, friendly and inviting. I want friends to feel like they can come over and put their feet up.”
Bryant missed that hospitality while living in a hotel for a year following a house fire in 2009. He and Brad Parks, a machinist at McKee, purchased their new townhouse in Rossville last year, then immediately started ripping out and remodeling what was even then a shell with a concrete floor.
The result makes a statement about the impact of rich color and contrasting textures. He mixes glass with heavy furnishings for the illusion of light and added space.
