Forest Home Media – HGTV Urban Oasis Influencer Event

Forest Home Media is honored to work with them again on an epic influencer event. Our team first work on the HGTV Smart Home in 2014, built by client Carbine & Associates in Nashville.

Home lifestyle influencers from eight states traveled to the HGTV Urban Oasis influencer event where signature cocktails, nibbles and amazing music was enjoyed and incredible music on the back porch by the talented duo, Kat & Alex.

Here’s more on the home from HGTV, created by design favorite Brian Patrick Flynn.

This modern refuge tucked away on a bustling city street is not your typical Southern home but rather serves as a blend of the traditionally timeless and cosmopolitan all within a contemporary structure that fits right in with the trendy, up-and-coming Nashville neighborhood.

Our audiences will appreciate the light-filled interiors with a fashionable country music flair. Inclusive touches allude to the diversity of the city from reinterpretations of female artists’ album covers to imagery parading the walls with color. These cohesive accents – from paint to décor to accessories – bring the vision of each room together. A beautiful bank of skylights allows natural light to flood in, enveloping the staircase and drenching the upstairs bathroom with sunlight.

Downstairs, neon LED signage greets guests upon entry adding a playful nod to honky-tonk culture and the legendary music industry that was born here. Just off the dining room, a custom-built banquet incorporates an original plank of wood from a pew of the historic Ryman Auditorium. In the kitchen, Food Network enthusiasts will enjoy the high-gloss cabinets, large eat-in island and wow-worthy storage solutions designed by expert organizers, Pinch of Help. French doors lead from the cozy living room to an outside porch peppered with plants, fun + functional outdoor seating and Broadway-inspired bistro lights.

The home commemorates Nashville by featuring historical undertones and museum-like experiences including a floor-to-ceiling Hatch Show Print gallery wall, vintage instruments display, a garage mural painted by famous muralist Kelsey Montague, and a jam room loft that pays tribute to legendary music and radio personalities like Dolly Parton, Elvis and Minnie Pearl.

In a year with so many cancelled plans, the Birmingham Home & Garden Inspiration Home influencer event was a welcomed and inspiring adventure. This show house will be open through November 29. Below you’ll only find vignette photos with the full home featured in the magazine’s upcoming issue.

Inspiration Home

Hosted by long-time blogger friend, Beth Bryan, Unskinny Boppy, the stunning Southern Cottage was built by Willow Homes in the Homewood area of Birmingham as an infill build. With Nashville-area blogger/tastemaker Beneath My Heart, we grabbed our masks, socially distanced and found some clever hand-sanitizer courtesy of CBM Design, mother-daughter upstairs bedroom designers.

Located on an elevated building lot which provides a great view, matching stone gables sandwich James Hardie lap siding painted a Sherwin-Williams Thunder Gray and a roof of hand-split, cedar shake shingles.

The home, already under contract prior to opening, is 3,400 square feet, five bedrooms with the owner’s retreat on the main level. It really lives large with a wall-sized sliding door weaving the charming courtyard with the gourmet kitchen.

Influencer Event History

In 2013, Forest Home Media partnered with Southern Living’s PR team for a media and influencer event at the Southern Living Idea House in Nashville, built by FHM client Castle Homes. The afternoon, with rock star decorator Phoebe Howard and Southern Living favs, former editor Lindsay Bierman and Southern Living garden expert Carmen Johnston, led to establishing a powerful marketing formula for clients. Combining smart bloggers and influencers with talented media writers has proven to be very impactful for home projects throughout the Southeast.

Lindsay Bierman and the PR Team for 2013 Southern Living Idea House Project hosted a blogger, influencer and media event prior to the house opening. Pictured with Bierman are former SL PR Director Jennifer Zawandanski, Zan Martin, president of Martin & Co. representing Fontanel & Nancy McNulty, Forest Home Media, representing the builder, Castle Homes.

Forest Home Media has since helped launch or promote a ton of premier home events including the Nashville Symphony Show House and last year’s Nashville Home Show, returning again this September, as well as the HGTV Urban Oasis House 2017 with designer Brian Patrick Flynn.
