South & Twenty

Cartersville, GA

South & Twenty is an exquisite multifamily community nestled in Cartersville, GA, where the allure of Lake Allatoona meets the charm of historic downtown Cartersville. Inspired by the natural beauty of its surroundings, the design at South & Twenty embodies a seamless fusion of modern and timeless elegance. The overall color palette is warm and inviting, with rust reds, greens, and warm woods.

The leasing center immediately welcomes you with rich, warm wood beams spanning the ceiling, reminiscent of classic designs seen in historic banks or train stations. In the leasing center, layering light blues, navy, and oranges with contemporary art gives this space a modern touch to the traditional architecture creating the perfect area for residents to gather and enjoy. The Clubroom carries on with the same flooring and beautiful wood beams as seen in leasing, but the focus is drawn to the fireplace with rich teal millwork on one side and a vibrant kitchen on the other. The atmosphere is set with deeper tones of velvet greens and blues, complemented by classic stripes and traditional rugs. The layout has been strategically designed to provide both relaxation and social engagement with powered soft seating, resulting in a space that exudes comfort and sophistication.

Notes from our clients

“My first interaction with Banko was when they rescued me on another project… I was introduced to Melissa and she stepped right in. I was so impressed by what she pulled off both in terms of the product, the timeliness, just the resource she was that I started using her for most of our interior design work thereafter.”

Katherine Mosley, Partner, Tribridge Residential

“They do a great job listening, but also asking the right questions. Pointed questions. They're not afraid to ask those questions and push back when needed… We really appreciate the fact that Banko Design pushes back when needed, and candidly does so. We appreciate that. Feels like more of a partnership.”

Ashish Bagley, Manager, Tribridge Residential

“If you know Melissa, she's just full of energy, but extremely smart. And I thought that her whole team follows that example. You know, just high energy, but extreme detail in each of their categories. The kids are really going to enjoy [this renovation]. It will not only be a great experience for the students, but also the teachers… and this is going to be a special place for them. No one has seen a pre-school like this… with the carpet and the lighting and the glass, there's whole sections just designated for imagination and exploring. All of it put together really makes for a cool experience.”

Dana Ridenour, Assistant Head of School, Finance & Operations, Mt. Pisgah
