Designer Profile - Paula Wallace's "Perfect Porches"

Required reading for our week long series on porch living is Perfect Porches by SCAD co-founder and president, Paula Wallace.  That je ne sais quoi that I mentioned earlier in regards to porches is summarized so well in the synopsis of the book: "Porches bridge our public and private worlds, and convey the essence of one’s home."  With 250 photographs of 40 porches this book is a great resource for anyone dreaming of porch living. 

Under Paula Wallace's presidency SCAD has grown in leaps and bounds and garnered numerous awards.  We are huge fans of her SCAD Working Class Studio project and are proud to sell the Working Class Studio outdoor dinnerware.

The book is beautifully photographed by Chia Chong and Adam Kuehl and I've pulled out a couple of choice shots from their portfolios to view at the bottom of the post.
