Kris Kirchner of K2J Inc. was called upon to help design the interiors, which are heavily influence by the Arts & Crafts style. The guiding principles here included an honest use of materials, simplicity in details and surroundings, nature as a source of inspiration, and furnishings that promote comfort, not formality; so natural stones, woods, textures, elements of nature, and abundant natural light were used to create a soothing atmosphere. "We also wanted to appeal to Generation Y with interiors that were streamlined, with clean lines and a spa-like feel," notes Sugg. And while the boutique-like interiors certainly appeal to the high-end demographic that is rapidly transforming Forsyth County, the Center did not want to alienate the more rural community that still makes up a good portion of the population there. "The simple, honest use of materials is something that any demographic understands," notes Lee.
