The Junior League of Greensboro's 2009

SSI was approached last fall to particpate in the 2009 Junior League of Greensboro's Designer Showhouse. This is one of the Junior League's major fundraisers held every two years where local designers are selected to design, furnish and decorate a particular area of the house.

This year's grand home is located in historic Irving Park area of Greensboro, having been built across from the community golf course in 1925. Changes and additions were made to the home in the '40's and 50's and now again this year. Mr. & Mrs. Hock, the new owners, have converted a detached garage to a Guest house and pool cabanna and added a swimming pool. The magnificient grounds and gardens mirror the beautiful surrounding area of Greensboro's Country Club.
