Designed for the needs of those with an active lifestyle, this unit has an open living and kitchen layout. This model focuses on the ability to have live, work, and play zones all within a spacious 1,000 square feet.

A dedicated home office and ample space for daily yoga create ease for transitioning from work to play.

The B3 is a 1,394-square-foot condo with two bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. The design team chose a masculine theme for this home, focusing on photography and sports. Custom photography prints highlight the residence’s proximity to Atlanta’s metropolitan sports scene, while concrete textures softened by warm cognac leathers invigorate the sense with a casual undertone. One bedroom has been set up as a playful and inviting space for kids, while still maintaining a cool and fresh vibe.

Offering a single-family feel thanks to the spaciousness of this condo, this model highlights an interest in design and fashion through the elegant and timelessly styled furnishings accented by an extensive modern and contemporary artwork collection. A combination of fresh transitional pieces and family heirlooms installed in a neutral and sophisticated setting only enhance the stunning city views also reflected on a wall of mirrors in the open dining space. An expanded kitchen island allows owners to entertain guests in their sumptuous new residence. Expansive bedrooms with floor-to-ceiling windows make this home a dream come true.
