I'm so proud that this month in Veranda magazine, a project very near and dear to my heart is being featured! The family this home belongs to has become special friends as we've had the privilege of designing not one, but three homes for them over the years! This home in the Palisades is a particular favorite of mine. It was built in the 80's, but we wanted it to feel like it had been built in the 30's. The client loves blue and white but we wanted to use it differently than their other homes in Montecito and Malibu. We looked to Provence for inspiration and incorporated checks, batiks, embroideries, ladder back and wicker details. This project is also featured in my new book, More Beautiful, as part of the introductory chapter. Interior design is so special because you're truly creating the homes that people spend their lives in. There's no better feeling when you get to know a client and they start to feel like family. It's fulfilling to know them, and see them live their lives in the homes you've helped them create.
