European style immigrates to Buckhead

To help achieve a simple design, Woody prefers large walk-through rooms rather than hallways. The living-dining room is a prime example, serving as a main artery and resting place. "The way the house flows is really great," giving it a "casual, European feel." The floors are refurbished beams from a north Georgia mill, and the antique fireplace comes from Provence -- the hearth itself constructed from four slabs of yorkstone.
