A to Z: Guide to Style
The People, Places & Things Defining the Local Look
 A FULL CIRCLE While poking around a small antiques shop in Florence, Italy, one winter day, local designers Beth Webb and Joanne Sims looked up to see the most spectacular ceiling fan circling above—despite the bone-chilling cold. In an instant, they knew they had to have the ARIA VENTILATORI fan. And a day later, they knew all of their design colleagues would feel exactly the same way. After many return trips to Florence, several long lunches with their new Italian artisan friends and the expert guidance of a wonderful man named Bruno—not to mention an Italian angel or two—they've brought the hand-crafted line of ceiling fans to the States. You could say that things have, indeed, come full circle. aria-ventilatori.com; piercemartin.com |

B CRYSTAL CONNECTION BACCARAT, the fabled crystal company, has a new home in Atlanta at OwenLawrence and continues to redefine crystal with cutting-edge introductions. Although we're pining for one of their eye-popping black crystal chandeliers, we're also gaga over the news that the store has the exclusive on Baccarat's Rencontre Collection by Jaime Hayon, which is simply surreal.

| C MODERN CLASSICISTS Everything old is new again—and out to prove it is the young members group of the Southeast Chapter of the Institute of Classical Architecture & Classical America. From sketching at the Cyclorama to watercolor classes at Oakland Cemetery, this next wave of local CLASSICISTS is reviving the lost arts of classical traditions. Lest you think they're stuck in the past, yet another class—“Why it Pays to Go Green”—proves they have one foot solidly in the 21st century. classicist-se.org/young |
