Dargan Back Porch

Surrounded by lush ferns, flowering camellias and trimmed boxwood, the Dargans’ is the quintessential Southern porch, a welcoming ‘room’ as beloved and frequently enjoyed as any space indoors. One of the most stylish and engaging couples I know, they entertain friends, play hide-and-go seek with their grandson, enjoy morning coffees together and relax with a good book here—with Neptune, artist Tess Morley’s shellwork grotesque, presiding over all. Creating a collection inspired by this beautiful retreat and its chic occupants was a breeze…jasmine-fragranced, of course.
