Kitchen Banquette?…Projects

 I’m working on a kitchen in a country farmhouse and am tossing around the idea of suggesting a banquette.  Like any remodels there are challenges in providing all the features we want in the space we have and a nook- table- in- a- booth could be the answer.  I’ve designed a few of these and know that comfort lies in the details. Have any of you, dear readers, had a banquette in your kitchen?  Did you love it? Hate it?  Tell me your story! Inspiration is at the heart of my luxury design services. What’s inspiring you? Make your home or business interior the best it can be and contact…

Press Coverage…Projects

 I’m thrilled to be featured in this month’s House 2 Home magazine’s Designer’s Corner.  Editor Susan Belknap does a wonderful job of covering topics of interest to homeowners in the greater Sacramento area and it is a regional ‘go-to’ for homeowner’s working on improvements. In the article I talk about common reasons why people decide to remodel and I discussed a lovely family home once full of kids and activity; now still fun-filled, but an empty nest in need of a face-lift and repurposed spaces.  Sound familiar? Here is the kitchen profiled in the article Before the remodel.  Yes, we all used to love those white washed cabinets, even the…

Boutique Hotels…..Inspiration

 I traveled to Los Angeles and San Diego last week and had the pleasure of staying in the lovely Hotel Palomar in downtown San Diego.  I’ve been fortunate to stay in the Palomar in San Francisco and Los Angeles and do so because there are always so many delightful, innovative, and inspirational interior finishes.  Let me take you on a quick peek at some on my most recent stay. These panels adorned the walls of each elevator.  A creamy resin with cross-cut branches suspended.  Very compelling in a Big Hunk candy bar kind of way. I arrived late at night and this finish was the first that registered with me.…

Fun Foyer…Projects

   Projects Take. A. Long. Time.  Even if design recommendations and decisions are quick there is the pesky reality of the dreaded ‘back-order’.  It is August and this side-entrance foyer in a Granite Bay home I designed in February, yes February, is now nearly complete.   I’m sharing these phone pictures with you because I’m…
