Graceland-Memphis, Tennessee

Graceland is Elvis Presley’s Mansion in Memphis, Tennessee. This 1940’s home is a colonial style building with many windows, a covered porch with a high ceiling, and giant pillars. The inside of the house has stayed the same sense Elvis passed away in 1977. The thing I remember most about visiting this house was how neat it was to see a house that was basically untouched-it was like I got to time travel back to the late seventies. His “Jungle Room” had green shag carpet on the floors and the ceilings, and there was a stacked stone waterfall. This room is what influenced me to decorate my house as mid-century.
