Create Space - A petite Lucite desk with a glass top is the perfect fit for an unobtrusive serving station. The colorful painting by Sally King Benedict helps anchor the mini bar on a neutral wall. Location: I’On, Mount Pleasant (owned by Allison and LeGrand Elebash) Issue: March 2016, “Outside the Box” Photographer: Julia LynnHandsome Hideaway - Custom cypress cabinetry by local firm ECR Joinery and an oval-shaped interior window distinguish this bar, which separates the kitchen and living room. Location: Kiawah Island, (owned by Leah and Gee Aldridge) Issue: July 2018, “Style & Substance” Photographer: Emily Jenkins FollowillHigh Touch - Vintage porcelain glove molds provide personality to this space, a “hyphen” connecting the single house to its guest suite, which was transformed into a chic entertaining space, complete with wet bar. Location: Ansonborough (owned by Betsy and Bruce Finley) Issue: February 2020, “A Twist on Tradition” Photographer: Julia LynnEncircle the Squares - Since arches dominate the ground floor of this carriage house, designer Kristin Peake echoed the motif with cylindrical side tables and pendant lights and round mirrors to soften the hard lines of the floor plan and exposed brickwork. Location: South of Broad (dependency of the Porcher-Simonds House, circa 1856, owned by Kristy and Rick Schultz) Issue: September 2019, “One Gorgeous Garage” Photographer: Julia Lynn
