Garage Bedroom Transformation

Just finished up this room design yesterday.

My client who's super rad, fun - Mr outgoing, full of personality, room was quite the opposite.  No offense Ty.  This delta house (whatever you were) college room needed an upgrade, and I honestly couldn't wait to get my hands on it.

AFTER

Where his bed was - is now a cool organized, functional closet. With some splashes of grey and color for fun.

The once garage door "catch all area", Is now the bedroom space. 

And yes he can just move the drapes over and still open the garage door, and take in the amazing Cali weather. Thanks for letting me take over your Room Ty! Loved transforming your space to match your awesomeness. 

Lazybones

2929 Main Street, Santa Monica CA

 If your in LA and you love, Anthropology/ vintage then it's a must STOP. 

It's not only one of the cutest store on main st (if i do say so myself ;), it has a whimsical, never want to leave, homie feel - hence the name. But the best surprise - It has a side garden! Such a great place to relax and take a moment to chill out the Lazybones way.

Doors oped December of 2014, and I'm just now posting ... I know!  Well I'm happy to share this with you. Finally :) 

I had the pleasure of work hand in hand with Tracey Hocking; creator/ CEO and Art Director of Lazybones, and her design team to help bring their fist store in the states, to life.  

Working with an Australia based company was a new set of challenge in itself; they were literally a day ahead of me. So I hope you love as much as I do.

Adding many layers and love to fixtures...

The crisp white backdrop is perfect for all the intricate textiles, and clothing. While the copper pipe and reworked vintage pieces ground the bright colors and patterns of all their beautiful home goods and accessories.
