Guest Bedroom
In the upstairs guest bedroom of the carriage house, a modern metal four-poster coexists with an Ikea cowhide rug and English Regency table (an heirloom from Sarah's interior-designer mother). Sarah scoured area antiques stores and flea markets, uncovering such treasures as a late-1970s prototype of a mirror by legendary designer Karl Springer.

Archer's Room
A funny thing happened on Sarah and Todd's way to a feathered nest: They found themselves enmeshed in a community. "Life here is old-fashioned. Guests rarely use the front door," Sarah says. "Todd and I are from Georgia, and this feels close to how we grew up." Within a couple years, the two were living in Athens full-time, and Sarah had ditched the fashion world to focus on interiors.

The Family
In summer 2011, Sarah showed off her new work—both her spare monotype prints and the fully decorated carriage house—by hosting a huge exhibition-cum-bash. In keeping with the inclusive spirit of her adopted hometown, Sarah invited a few of the neighbors to display their art, too. Around here, she explains, people encourage and support one another's creativity. And it doesn't get more fashionable than that.
