Lance Jackson and David
Ecton developed the
Parker Kennedy Living
interior design group
and brand in 2011. Lance,
who graduated from
SCAD with a BFA in
interior design, developed highly successful
interior design groups for
Atlanta-based architectural firms. He decided
to make his own stamp
in the interior design
industry with his own
brand. Co-founder David
Ecton, who attended the
University of South Alabama and later received
an MBA in international
trade, has a fascination
with architecture that
stems from his time
abroad in Venice. While
studying and excavating
an ancient Etruscan ruin,
David learned the importance of how one’s space
affects the way one lives.
Parker Kennedy Living
focuses on high-end
residential interior
design, vintage furniture
restoration and product
development. Their
look is “Preppy on the
Edge”—or Southern
Regency as Lance calls
it—taking a traditional
interior and elevating it
Lance shares some of
David’s and his favorite
places in Savannah.

that make it feel cozy
and inviting. It’s perfect
for a glass of chardonnay
at the bar during a warm
late afternoon as well
as lunch or dinner. The
