Since their arrival to the Atlanta area market, I.O. Metro has quickly become one of my favorite shopping spots I recommend to hands-on decorating clients and my go-to spot for jobs with demanding deadlines. In the past, they’ve also partnered with my non-profit organization (Room Service Atlanta) in helping us deliver deserving design to Atlanta families.

Tonight I.O. Metro is hosting a nationwide Independence Day Preview Party from 6-8pm with a $2000 gift card up for grabs. Each season I.O. Metro debuts some of the industry’s hottest decor items and below are a few of my top picks!

The Wimberly Mirror is a personal favorite I’ve used many times on projects. Do you remember the room I designed for the Emory University’s Michael C. Carlos Museum fundraiser? Patrons couldn’t stop talking about its size and graphic impact. Who could blame them?

Here it is again in a dining room that I.O. Metro designed for Room Service Atlanta at The United Methodist Children’s Home. Gorgeous!

I’ve also used I.O. Metro’s furnishings and accessories for set design projects. I just love how they translate on video! This was for Tyler New Media’s movie, Still Standing.

AND…if you read HGTV Magazine, then you may have spotted the Libby chair in the April 2014 issue! I.O. Metro does it again with some of the best and boldest statement pieces.
