The sound of waves crashing, that feeling of your toes in the sand, the fresh aroma of salty air…

Does thinking about your outdoor space make you smile? Or... does it make you sigh wistfully as you imagine all the unmet potential for greatness?

If there’s one thing the pandemic achieved (other than LOTS of time with my girls), it’s the completion of our long-time dream: renovating our home!

The dining room design I’m sharing with you today has everything I love most — moody color, a blend of modern and traditional details, dramatic lighting, mixed metals, textures you can see and feel, plants, great views, a bar area, and so much more.

Does this sound familiar? You’ve seen stunning, professionally designed interiors when flipping through Architectural Digest, browsing House Beautiful, or scrolling the ‘Gram.

Hello, friends! Today I want to talk about a topic that can be a little taboo in some circles but is SOOO important. Are you ready for it?

Happy New Year, everyone! To start us off on a positive note (we need it, right?), I am beyond excited to share this design project with you.

For those who are still taken aback by how crazy this year has been, I’m about to remind you once more how fast time flies: It’s NOVEMBER!

If I had a nickel every time a client described their style as “modern,” I would be one wealthy interior designer.

I’m a bit smitten with this modern powder room design we just completed for a super smart (and totally cool) techie couple in the east bay.

Okay, I admit it… the travel bug is biting hard right now.

Ah, my friends... What a crazy world we’re living in, right?
