Sad Day... 'Southern Accents' is Closing it's Doors


Quite a Sad day... another great interior mag, [U.S] Southern Accents, is closing it's doors....after 32 years. I just really love this magazine because the South [in the US] can be so similar to how we live in Australia - combining inside & out, showing us so many with beautiful home tours, and fabulous ideas for the simplest changes. Thank you Southern Accents, to your wonderful editorial team for all your fabulous inspiration, beautiful articles & images through out the years - we will miss you ever so much....

A Note from Editor in Chief Karon Carroll
As many of you may have heard by now, Southern Accents is closing and the September-October issue will be our last. For the past 32 years, it has been our great privilege to work with so many talented, creative people to showcase beautiful houses and gardens, and to be a champion of the gracious lifestyle of this wonderful region we call home. We deeply appreciate the loyalty and support that our readers–both of the magazine and our blog–have shown us. You are the reason it has been such a joy to be a part of this industry and we appreciate you more than we can say.
2009 Southern Accents & ASID Design Contest. Dear designer, Many thanks for your interest in the National Residential Interior Design Contest. As you may have heard, our parent company has recently announced the closing of Southern Accents and thus we regret that we will be unable to conduct the awards.
We have deeply valued our relationship with ASID and we appreciate your support of the awards. Best wishes for continued success.
Sincerely, Karen Carroll
