Jolene Residence/Patio 617

Best in American Living Awards 2025 — Silver Award | Best Outdoor Room/Living Space

Set on a gently sloping site overlooking a premier Nashville golf course, Jolene Residence/Patio 617 is a contemporary home shaped by light, landscape, and material clarity. This award-winning Nashville residence demonstrates Carlton Edwards’ integrated approach to residential design, where architecture responds to both site conditions and the rhythms of daily life.

Warm stone, darkened wood, and expansive glazing define a composition that balances grounded mass with openness, creating spaces that feel both elevated and welcoming. The home’s organization emphasizes connection between interior and exterior—long views across the fairway and distant hills are framed throughout, while the infinity edge pool, fire pit terrace, and covered outdoor pavilion extend daily life into the landscape.

Together, these elements reflect Carlton Edwards’ design philosophy: architecture shaped by setting, material intelligence, and spatial clarity. Recognized with the 2025 BALA Silver Award, this project exemplifies the firm’s commitment to creating homes that are both sophisticated and deeply livable.
