“The first hint of fall gives me reason enough to celebrate! Although it’s not yet cashmere weather at my home in Savannah, any cocktail starring bourbon makes a cozy liquid sweater. And it’s cool and dark enough to serve a sinful gratin among masses of candles.”—Rebecca Gardner of Houses & Parties 

Table is set with a plaid tablecloth and autumn flowers.

“I find the best interiors incorporate influences from around the world, from the Far East to the West, for an interesting, thoughtful mix. I love an Asian silhouette—especially on a drinks table—to punctuate a room.”—Designer Mary McDonald

“When it comes to chairs, I often feel like Goldilocks. Is it too deep, too high, too hard, too small? If it isn’t comfortable, no one will sit there. When the lines are beautiful, and the scale suits the person and the room, the chair is just right.”—Designer Bunny Williams
