Pinewood Forest Huxley Terrace Home

Stephen Brown recently moved from midtown Atlanta to Pinewood Forest (Fayetteville, GA) and works in the creative industry at Cookerly Public Relations (he’s sometimes known as the brainstormer in chief) as well as runs his own SilverScreenCapture.com movie review site. He was attracted to the pioneering element of a community fostering what it means to thrive built on the design ethos of new urbanism and adjacent to where many of the great creative conversations and storytelling are taking place (across from Pinewood Atlanta Studios).

He wanted his Huxley style terrace home (1,800 square foot, 3 bedroom and 2.5 bathroom with an open, inviting floor plan and 10' ceilings) to be a treasure trove of movie, theatre and advertising collectibles as well as a place he can host neighbors for screenings, group discussions and even his notorious Academy Award parties. He loves the proximity to parks, bike trails and a movie studio and has even helped curate movie screenings for the neighborhood. Since moving in, he has hosted everything from chef demonstrations to church gatherings to Super Bowl and Oscar parties in his eclectic home. The designer is Lew Oliver, home builder is McKinney Homes, and interior design consultant is Dana Lynch Designs.
