Brandon Branch Keeps the Booze Flowing in His Chic Savannah Home

Decorating has been a part of Brandon Branch's joy for as long as he can remember, but the Southern Charm Savannah designer doesn't need everything to be so fussy. Watch a video tour (above) of the historic downtown Savannah townhouse that he shares with his husband Jim to see how simple touches can mean a lot to a home's overall aesthetic.

Our favorite detail along his tour is the simple hack he uses to make his home versatile when it comes to entertaining — he's got two bars in different areas of the house, which really comes in handy for all the cocktail and dinner parties they like to host. Nothing fancy, just some well-appointed collections of spirits presented neatly, but having two areas where a planned or spontaneous party might happen really makes his place feel inviting. One is quite modest, a setup that's really ideal for making a quick nightcap.

While the other is a bit more involved, with doors that conceal the bar for when it needs to be out of sight and mind. This bar is located upstairs, and he says guests are encouraged to "help themselves." Which has to be pretty exciting if you're lucky enough to be a guest chez Brandon and Jim.
