The Atlanta Ballet Production Moulin Rouge® Can-Cans Positive Reviews!

We are thrilled to share the reviews of Atlanta Ballet's production of Moulin Rouge®- The Ballet. The two and half hour long performance was full of props to simulate the essence of Paris, the hand-dyed costumes were made with careful precision and attention to detail, and the dance numbers displayed the enormous amount of practice and athletic ability contributed by each performer. The production received great reviews from Creative Loafing, the Marietta Daily Journal, and Arts Critic ATL.

We had a great time working with those at Atlanta Ballet and Solomon Says and hope to be able to work with them in the future, they're all fabulous people.

Check the ballet's blog for coverage and tickets for the production running through October 31. http://www.moulinrougeballet.com/

Orchid Ceramics 'Floors' Visitors at the Achasta Ideal Living House!

Ansley from Ant Hill here giving my post-visit insights on the 2010 Ideal Living Home in Dahlonega, Georgia. It was GORGEOUS! That's all....kidding :) Really though, Johnna Barrett of Sustain House did an amazing job and has an impeccable design aesthetic and perspective. The house is on a luscious piece of land overlooking the golf course in the Achasta Golf Community. Each bedroom has it's own walk in closet and bathroom. The house is the perfect balance in regard to gender design preferences; it's not to feminine or masculine. The colors are based off of a natural color palette of warm browns and tans. I had a chance to speak with Johnna at the ribbon cutting. She elaborated on how she hand-picked each product and insisted they be eco-friendly which makes us so happy she used Orchid Ceramic tile throughout the entire home! Here she is pictured with Grace Fricks, President and CEO of Georgia Green Loans

















The house will be open to the public beginning tomorrow, Saturday, September 11. It's $5 dollars per car load and 80% of the proceeds go to charity. Check out the pictures below. It's hard to believe that the house was built and finished in four months!

Who Says It's Not Easy Being Green?

Maybe ten or fifteen years ago we would have sided with Kermit the Frog but today, there is such a huge market focused on all green everything. We can't even call it 'niche' anymore! It feels great to represent brands that not only produce great products but also recognize what a social responsibility it is to ensure their products sustain the Earth. One couple we love agrees and has in fact, built their business on promoting a green lifestyle.

Ron and Lisa Beres of Green Nest and authors of 'Just Green It!' provide their audience with simple tips to switch your lifestyle to a health focused and eco-friendly way of living. We're thrilled to add that BOTH of our clients, Mythic Paint and Orchid Ceramics were featured at their book launch in California. Here are a few pics...

Orchid Ceramics Signs on with Ant Hill Communications

We're excited to announce a new addition to the Ant Hill roster! Orchid Ceramics, a ceramic, accent, decorative and porcelain tile manufacturer based out of Tulsa, OK was established in July of 2002 by the Coronas Organization, a multinational business based out of Columbia, South America which boasts over 120 years of production.

Ant Hill is looking forward to developing a strategized new brand positioning and marketing campaign for Orchid. There are tons of gorgeous styles of tile to choose from plus the fact that the products are GREENGUARD certified doesn't hurt either! We really value Orchid's commitment to the green movement and the philanthropic work they do with Tile Partners for Humanity and Habitat for Humanity.

Ant Hill Communications Creates YouTube Page for Mythic Paint

With the latest videos we've been shooting with David Bromstad and Mythic Paint, Ant Hill thought it would be nice for Mythic fans to get a glimpse of what goes on on the other side of the lens. So enters the birth of the YouTube page. Constructing the page is the perfect way to keep Mythic Paint fans and followers up to date on the latest video material such as the how-to videos by David. In these videos, David covers everything from the simplicity of painting a flawless wall to the complexities and details that go into decorating a baby or kid's space. Plus, being able to comment on each video is totally interactive which is what the social media movement is all about right? Go for yourself and check it out here .

See What's on Tap at the Paint Bar

A new spin on the mundane task of selecting paint has arrived to pull you out of your routine! Paint bars are cropping up all over the country and becoming wildly popular with paint enthusiasts and do-it-yourself-ers (is that even a word?...). Mythic Paint colors serve as the backdrop for the new paint bar at the house + earth retail store in Austin, Texas. We're thrilled for Mythic! The bar is totally interactive and informational making the paint selection process a fun event rather than a burden. Look in your neck of the woods for a paint bar nearest you and belly up!
