Atlanta's own Michael Smith Boyd!!!

Atlanta has become a second home to me. I am always impressed with its design influences and inspirations. I'm a Maryland native but I have big LUV for ATL.
I was introduced to Michael Boyd's designs from my mentor Kimberly Ward's, "Pink Egg Shell" blog. Needless to say his designs are phenomenal. His luscious layers of luxurious designs make you want to more. You might have caught some of his designs while watching "Housewives of Atlanta". He designed the ever so stylish Marlo Hampton's home. Take a look. The pictures speak for them self.
