The owners of the acclaimed stores and decorating firm Circa Interiors present eight stylish, beautiful homes blending comfort, beauty, and function with classic Southern hospitality. A house with an open door is like a friend with an open heart: inviting, generous of spirit, and constant at the core. In their first book, Jane Schwab and Cindy Smith present beautifully arranged interiors in which the trademarks of their style—subtle color palettes, graceful furniture, an emphasis on comfort and entertaining—harmonize to create fresh yet classic rooms. Walking the reader through each home with their characteristic Southern charm, they share their vision and process, from big-picture topics such as room flow and furniture plans, to the importance of entryways and setting a beautiful table. The lessons also extend from the interior to the garden, as Schwab and Smith discuss how outside spaces can become natural extensions of the home for entertaining. Throughout, they share specific ideas for arranging rooms to welcome one, two, or four people as comfortably as fifty, establishing multifunctional, adaptable gathering places that are both gracious and functional for the family of the house as well as their guests.

CINDY AND PHIL SMITH have lived a life together that not many have experienced. As a young seminary student in Chicago, Phil was seeking God's will for his life. Should he become a military chaplain, a pastor or a missionary? When he was smitten by a feisty young girl, Cindy, who was training to be a teacher to missionary children. His proposal to her "would you like to put your shoes in my closet?" was the beginning of a lifelong love affair and adventure together. Through the many years of difficulties in raising a family while in ministry, and then carrying the gospel to 'closed areas' of the world, they remained in love with Jesus, His work and each other! This is an inspiring story for all.
