Summertime in the ‘Ville

Its doesn’t get much prettier or HOTTER in Louisville during the summer. Decks are the outdoor room added to the house.  Just open the back door and the oasis awaits.  We had planned on adding a roof over the deck several years ago, but just couldn’t do it. The view has a tree house affect and was just too lovely. So…we opted for  umbrellas.  Lots and lots of umbrellas. We get shade and can still lean back and see the stars on a warm summer night. Yep, the livin’ is easy up here.

About Siobhan Sheehan

The name, Urban and Upscale, goes way, way back. Its beginning hinges on a gal named Eileen. Born in Maine, Eileen moved to New York during the depression and grew up in the Bronx. Ever ahead of her time, Eileen was always, the one to lead the way in fashioning her home and her surroundings. Her style, her wit and her ability to make a home out of the most meager of surroundings was the envy of the neighbors. Eileen didn't just create a home, she created an urban nest for her brood. When the decision came for me to "name" the company, I went back to my roots, Eileen. I am her youngest and to me she is and will always be, Urban, Upscale and Fashion Forward.
