Last month I had the privilege of attending the Interior Design Society’s National Conference at the beautiful Bellagio Las Vegas in Las Vegas, and I’m still processing everything I brought home. Thank you Interior Design Society for days full of inspiration!

Roger Thomas, the design mastermind behind the Bellagio and Wynn, put words to so many beliefs I practice every day:
* Be authentic.
* Create spaces that make people feel their best.
* Always bring in natural light.
* Never specify anything you haven’t experienced yourself. (Exactly why I’m writing this on a plane to High Point Market.)
* Be a problem solver. (Most of my clients never know what keeps me up at night, and that’s the point.)

Day 2 took us through Las Vegas Market, with showrooms open only to IDS members. It’s amazing what you discover when the floors aren’t packed: a vintage rug grab at Feizy, plus Bernhardt, Global Views, Surya, Highland House, Theodore Alexander, and my lighting favorite, Hubbardton Forge.

Jaye Anna Mize Wendy Katrinia Locke shared where living is headed, and so much of it is already part of every HBI project:

* Your home should be a healthy place that resets you.
* Lighting creates mood, and it goes far beyond the ceiling. (Layering light is something I teach my students every semester.)
* Hide what you don’t want to see. Hello, built-in storage.
* A return to classical proportion, symmetry, and timeless design.
* Craftsmanship and local pieces made to last.
* Phase projects toward a long-term vision instead of chasing trends.
* Bedrooms for sleep, bathrooms for quiet rituals, kitchens for gathering.

Christopher Todd welcomed us all into his home for delicious food, cocktails, and so many fun design moments, including a designer emergency tool bar where we built our own survival kits.

Day 3 closed with Katie Decker-Erickson on running your business and Elizabeth Lord Levitt on improving the construction process, then the Designer of the Year Awards, where IDSOC/LA brought home some hardware! Congratulations to every winner.

Whether you own or rent, design is about making your home worth living in now. So tell me, what do you love most about your home?

From my very first trip in 2016, Kauai 🌺 captured a piece of my heart.

Anyone close to me knows I make it back at least once or twice a year, if I’m lucky, and if I ever truly ran away, this is where you’d find me.

There’s something about this island that recharges me in a way nowhere else does. Over the years, we’ve been lucky enough to share it with so many of the people we love. We’ve brought both of our moms to the island. We’ve made memories on family trip after family trip. We even ran away here during Covid with dear friends, back when the whole world was homeschooling at the kitchen table.

Seeing the destruction now is heartbreaking. 💔

We usually go in late August or September. This year, I booked us a little later. My heart and my prayers are with the people of Kauai and with all the little gems that have made our adventures what they are. Poipu has always been our favorite place, and we have stayed at many of the now-devastated properties. My heart is heavy thinking about all of our favorite spots: St. Theresa’s Church, The Beach House, Island Tacos, and every hidden spot we’ve stumbled into along the way.

Kauai, we love you. 🌺

Week 1 Sept

If your interior designer isn’t checking in on your job site during construction, they’re doing it wrong.

Here’s a quick peek into a day in my life as an interior designer here in Southern California.

Right now, we have two home renovations wrapping up in the next few weeks and one that just broke ground, thankfully they’re all close to the office, so I can swing by on my way to or from Seal Beach.

These final weeks are all details: confirming the last decisions, making sure every piece of product is ordered, tracked, and delivered to site so the finish install goes off without a hitch. This is where a project either comes together beautifully or falls apart — and it doesn’t come together by luck. It comes together because someone is there, on-site, overseeing every detail.

Good thing I love what I do. 🤍

Back to CSULB!

Not for classes or camps, but to watch my daughter step into nursing at her White Coat Ceremony.

Standing by the Pyramid brought me straight back 33 years to when I moved from San Diego to start my Interior Design degree. Long 15-hour days building models and pulling 3-day all-nighters built friendships that are still thriving today. We even filmed a dorm makeover show for Discovery Channel back before social media existed!

Now as the new Student Liaison for IDS OC/LA, I’m honored to help guide the next generation of designers starting their own paths. Life truly comes full circle—this month I’m wrapping up a kitchen remodel for a client who was the big boss on campus when I was a student assistant! The connections you make early on shape everything.

Here’s to celebrating new chapters and staying passionate about what we build. 

“Have you had a ‘full circle’ moment in your career recently? I’d love to hear about it in the comments!”

Ok, jumping on the bandwagon because I think It’s chic to invest in Design, and you should always have a designer and a plan when you are thinking about a renovation. 

The most beautiful spaces aren’t created by chasing every trend on Pinterest. They come from thoughtful decisions, careful planning, and trusting the process, and that’s what we do.  

Just yesterday a client told me how much they love their home and that, if it weren’t for me, they’d still be living  in an unusable, chopped up space with Pinterest photos taped up everywhere.

This week marks my LAST first day of school; my youngest started his Senior year, my twins will be juniors in college, and my oldest is already adulting and working full-time.   This season is different, and I’m not sure where summer actually went and how school is starting again, but here we are.   Each year I say I’ll take summer Fridays, schedule more beach days, and plan a little more downtime, but then I blink, and summer is over.    This summer flew by, 2 graduations, a trip to Japan for my youngest, a swim champion, and having my son home from college for 6 weeks.  We always made the most of our summers, BUT planning trips together is getting harder and harder. We only had about 30 hours altogether celebrating Julianna’s graduation in Portland in May, and this past weekend Greg planned a quick getaway to go w**e tasting and make sure my Dylan was settled back at school.  With three busy summer lifeguards, there really was no time for a family trip. Looking through my camera roll, we did have some fun (the boys even came to Market), but I’m really missing our family time together. 

What’s your most memorable family trip for your young adults?

The best design removes friction you didn’t even know was there.

The best design is about how your home makes you feel, not just how it looks. And that’s what I love about what I do. There’s nothing I like more than diving into my clients’ lives and understanding how they live. During discovery, we spend time gathering information on how you want to live in your home. From inspo pictures to lifestyle, my job as your designer is to create a space that supports you, not a one-size-fits-all aesthetic.

Do you entertain? Do you have kids going in all directions with all kinds of gear? Does your family gather here for the holidays?

We design around your life. The entry that quietly ends the daily pile-up. The kitchen that flows the way you actually cook. The best design makes you stop fighting the flow of your home. That’s the magic: when a space stops demanding your attention and simply supports your life.

A renovation done right doesn’t just look beautiful. It runs beautifully, every detail considered, so your days get easier and you barely notice the reason.

That’s what we design for. Not the Pinterest moment, the Monday morning that suddenly feels effortless.

Why I always make a point to travel to at least 2 markets a year.

Maybe I’m old school, but I love to see, touch, and feel the products I recommend for you in person!

I’m not an e-designer or a designer who just specifies products online.

That’s why I make it a point to travel to design industry markets to touch the fabrics, do sit tests, feel the weight of a piece, and see the items I specify for your home in person.

A photo can’t do that or tell you if something’s right. Your home is personal, and my mission is to find the perfect pieces for you and your home.

What you see when you retail shop is just a small amount of what has been curated for that store and that experience. Those pieces are not selected with your home in mind.

This is the part you never have to think about.

I take it off your plate, so what shows up in your home is exactly right the first time.

Every showroom, every appointment, I’m sourcing and searching for unique pieces that I can put my name behind.

My clients bought a new home. Then they decided not to move.

Smaller, closer to town,  on paper, downsizing made perfect sense. The kids were grown with families of their own.

But this house has something you can’t buy twice. There’s a little magic in the property, and decades of memories, love, and laughter inside it. Leaving just didn’t feel right.

What started as a simple conversation about what could be turned into a multi-phase project.

Phase one is the Casita, separate from the main house, so there’s independence and a place to get away, while still staying close. It was designed to be accessible from the start: wider doorways, generous clearances, a roll-in shower, grab bars built into the plan instead of added later. Whether it’s for aging parents or for themselves one day, the support is already there and built in. 

Sometimes the best move is staying. 
Weighing whether to move or renovate? Let’s talk.
