Tour the Brierfield Farmhouse, Our Alabama Showhouse

Explore FLOWER magazine's Brierfield farmhouse! The showhouse decor was led by interior designer Mary Evelyn McKee. The idyllic farm is the property of Flower magazine’s founder and editor-in-chief, Margot Shaw, and her husband, Gates. Their new dream house in the country does double duty as a FLOWER showhouse.

“If it’s dark it’s dark. If it’s small it’s small. It is what it is.” I love that she embraces what the room is and what it’s about and doesn’t try to make it anything that it’s not.

Beautiful home with such character and charm.,.

[@cherylbarkley8471]

The whole home inspires to rest in its peacefulness and comfort.

Stunning.

[@flower-magazine]

Thank you!

[@marynielson1705]

This is one of the best rock house exteriors I've ever seen. The porch is fabulous. And so is the interior. You can tell a lot of thought went into this home.

[@matthewfletcher4370]

The living room curtains and chair fabric are to die for!!!! Also in the study-that wingback chair with the wood accent is gorgeous.... And do not even get me started on the art on the mantle. WHAT!!!!!!.....

[@glgardener4972]

Well thought out interior design. I have the chandelier in the breakfast room and love it. The location looks stunning also.

[@theresaholden7580]

Just stunning, lived in look!

[@dianemunson9698]

Fabulous execution !I love all fabrics & colors, furniture, colors& almost all lights

[@flower-magazine]

Thank you so much!

[@josephforsuh6929]

I am absolutely awestruck. I nearly wept when I saw the kitchen counter stools..... so stylish. This is an incredible piece of work, through and through. A masterful and authentic representation of a cottage style home. Mary Evelyn, you and your team are simply marvellous.

[@flower-magazine]

This is one of the most spectacular houses I have ever seen. Just marvelous.

[@josephforsuh6929]

Could not agree more!!!

[@julieshepard3409]

I absolutely love all the color and color combinations. I am so bored with all the white interiors. Great style and use of color.

[@flower-magazine]

Thanks so much!

[@robertaykavel1129]

Love everything

[@tmc1373]

I absolutely LOVE this home, such class and distinction! It's absolutely gorgeous. I'm curious how many square feet it is? It's a fabulous and sophisticated use of space in every single room! JUST AMAZING!

LOVE

[@aduwopbarack1050]

Lovely home. I especially like the eclectic furnishings. Wonder whether the designer can design for those outside the USA.

[@josephforsuh6929]

I feel the same way!

[@ruralangwin]

Did any one catch the color used throughout the home? I don't see in source list.

[@flower-magazine]

All wall and trim paint was Devonshire Green and Baffin Island by Benjamin Moore

[@robertaykavel1129]

Is this home available to be built ?

[@mariajensen4538]

Could be winter house

[@tanyam3090]

It is pretty but all that”stuff” and clutter just does my head in. I couldn’t live in is house, but would be a nice weekend get away. I also find the place a bit dark and ‘dirty’ looking. I am sure people would love all this but it is just way too much and old fashioned for me. The designer seems like a lovely lady and a great tour. Thankyou!

[@davidshep45]

Everyone has their own preferences. I could easily embrace this home. Homes of recent years are way to minimalist and sterile for my taste not to mention cookie cutter and trendy. Everyone and thier granny have gone doctors office white and ugly gray. . I would say judging from the high end designer name dropping you would have to be a multi millionaire to afford this home. If you have an eye for design you could easily substitute most of these pieces for sensibly priced versions.

[@tanyam3090]

@@davidshep45 I agree with the cookie cutter stuff everywhere and prefer ‘warmer’ looking spaces too. For me though, it is still way too full of ‘stuff’. It is good that we all like different things…. How boring if it we were all the same, just as you said. Thanks for the response!!

[@ninajacobs6277]

Very old lady looking. I’m shocked that’s it’s 2021 showcase house.

[@mildredjohnson7166]

I love the house but the decor is not my cup of tea.
