It was six years ago that the impressively high-ceilinged Mitchell Hill Gallery came to Upper King Street. Filled with paintings, sculptures, custom furniture and photographs, the gallery offers the city a refresh- ing departure from the formal, traditional spaces so often seen in Charleston.
Since its opening, Mitchell Hill has accumulated the works of countless artists, with a total of 30 currently displayed there— particularly regional creators of both art and decor. This year, the gallery launched its own gilded metal lighting collec- tion, which is artfully displayed throughout the space, illumi- nating the 5,000-square-foot art and design showroom. Upstairs, Mitchell Hill offers full-scale interior design services. The gallery always pulls from its enormous inventory when build- ing a project. “Often, we’ll use a piece of art as a leaping-off point. The two worlds really do collide,” co-owner Michael Mitchell says. “Our clients tend to be sophisticated art collectors, so the art is part of the process.” Mitchell Hill hosts monthly
receptions and offers an online shopping experience at shop mitchellhill.com.
