Creating a living room that could be easily re-arranged for entertaining was one of the challenges in designing this Beverly Hills living room. The color palette was chosen to reflect the sage and poppy tones in California Native plants.
The dining room overlooks one of the most mature California Native gardens in the Los Angeles area.  The custom chandelier was designed to reflect the organic shapes of the tree it overlooks.
Classically beautiful Palladian windows are framed by a pastel palette in this charming breakfast room awash with sunlight.
A beautifully appointed eclectic mix of styles in a sitting room designed for the Pasadena Showcase House... aspired to be reminiscent of CoCo Chanel's Paris apartment.
Red walls are not for everyone, but this dramatic choice of wall color created an enticing and exciting environment.
The entry to this contemporary desert home needed a strong focal point to balance the high ceilings and the Great Room beyond.
Round dining tables always create a wonderfully gracious way to entertain and in this interior with the high ceilings and open space it provides a sense of intimacy.
With the kitchen open to the Great Room we wanted to keep it simple.  The plum leather bar chairs and the hand blown glass pendant lights add a touch of understated elegance.
The desert sunset was the inspiration for the choice of colors.  We used shades of sand, taupe, caramel, plum and blue green to add warmth to the large space.
Beautiful tones of aqua silk and copper patinas highlight the bedroom.
The powder room is accented with bronze wallcovering and sophisticated lighting creates a sultry atmosphere.
A country French manor house in Montecito was designed from the ground up with attention to every detail. A three year project was a true labor of love!
A charming French toile wall paper depicting hot air ballons is whimsically highlighted by the balloon light fixture.
Hand painted tiles and antique cream colored cabinets are accented by the French blue cupboard and light walnut island.  It is a wonderful gathering place for the manor house.
A elegant blue and white floral toile fabric was selected for the bedding and the drapery.
The lovely vanity area is set off by the glass storage cabinets with glass doors and shirred curtains.
A color palette of soft sage, taupe and cream create a very tasteful and understated interior for this California Mediterranean style home.
The use of terracotta or red toned walls enhance the dining experience.
Custom cabinets in a teal green are glazed with a copper wash.  Italian tiles were used to complete the look.
