This week we’re exploring color and light on the third floor of our house with @soraahome . While it looks like a run down mess at the moment, we have a vision of this being the perfect work space for our creative small business. Are we crazy for thinking this room will be painted a beautiful bright lime washed white one day? Maybe. 😉 Hop over to the blog to see more, and be sure to check out the first and second floor posts as well. #soraahome #ad #avantrevivalists

It’s been over a year since we did the @oneroomchallenge 🖤🙌 We laughed, we cried, we dealt with terrible old home issues. In the end, I’m glad we did because we actually finished the Queen of May room. These brave souls are joining us to renovate one room in 6 weeks. Give them some love and a follow! Next Wednesday, we’ll@reveal what room we’ll be working on! #avantrevivalists @athomewithashley

1907 or 2018? “Graphic arts are the expression of the secondary imaginative life rather than a copy of the actual life.” 🖤 I bought this book at a barn sale yesterday, I like to read on the topic cause I love art history and culture. In the back of the book there were three pieces of paper with ideas about society and art hand written. In you replace ‘graphic arts’ with ‘Instagram’ times have not really changed that much in the past 100 years? Just a new medium. I’ve really been struggling to love posting still images in IG lately. It is real, it is not real? Who’s trust worthy, who’s a player? I love Instagram Stories for the real was they bring to the table. I’ve decided I’d like to focus on conversations here. Put up an image that strikes up a rich conversation. My IG DMs are the best. Y’all send me the most thought provoking and wonderfully resourceful conversations. Let’s put it someplace everyone can enjoy it and see that this is real life. #avantrevivalists

The ceiling details: last year I visited Laura Plantation just outside of New Orleans (highly recommended). I was on a tourists walk through and being whisked through the property faster than I could both instagram story and take a few snaps with my phone. I’m the annoying multi tasker people are always ‘moving along’ because I’m immersed in my phone. 😬 This ceiling is stained in my memory and a reminder to consider the fifth wall when planning your design. #avantrevivalists #historichomes #restore #historicinteriors #vintageinspired #vintageinterior #oldhomelove #oldhomes #oldhomecharm #deservetopreserve #oldhomestyle #flashesofdelight #sodomino #theconsideredhome #howiseeluxury

Beautiful moment from our escapades in the Hudson Valley this weekend. Put @maisonbergogne on your short list when you visit the area. Juliette has a vision and unique style that will leave you inspired and looking for more. #avantrevivalists .

About the Brinsons

The Brinsons have been collaborating creatively for over 20 years. William and Susan met in high school, then attended Savannah College of Art and Design. William has a degree in photography, and Susan in design. After moving to NYC they each had their careers in their individual fields and in 2010 began dabbling with the idea of working together as a team. Susan was growing weary of the advertising industry and William was looking for a change. They began working on their blog, House of Brinson. They defined what would become their careers by shaping a creative, collaborative team. Over the next four years, their creative relationship evolved into them working full time on projects together.

As Photographers

The Brinsons are the perfect combination of formally educated and self taught. William began his career directly after college and has over 15 years experience as a commercial photographer. Susan began her career in advertising, working up to design director. After many years of managing a large design team, Susan started photographing with William behind the scenes for their blog in 2010. In 2014, they ditched convention and began photographing together commercially. Different approaches create a unique shared vision.

As Influencers

Crafting a beautiful life and living intentionally is the soul of House of Brinson. The blog started in 2010, and when the Brinson’s decided to move to the Hudson Valley, social media took note. The on-going renovation project of the dilapidated mansion, Stony Ford, has people looking for more on social media. Visit House of Brinson for food, interiors, lifestyle and old home renovation.
