The key to successfully overhauling a home isn’t necessarily pulling it to pieces. For the Memphis-based interior designer behind Sean Anderson Design, knowing when to pull back is key to unlocking the true design potential of every home. In this northern Mississippi home, which was built in 2004, the structure of the home needed very little work, and Sean Anderson sought to modernise it for its owner Angela Cook.
As owner of Grandview Gallery, a wholesale lighting company, Cook’s tastes lean more modern, and after purchasing the Mississippi home to be closer to her son and granddaughter, she sought Anderson’s help to refresh her new living space. Located in northern Missippi, adjacent to the area’s famous Natchez Trace Parkway, a historic 715km trail that crosses three US states. “The area has lush, rolling terrain and small winding connecting roads. Not far down the road is the birthplace of Elvis Presley,” says Anderson.
