As much as I lack a sense of privacy, having completely exposed windows in our office wasn’t ideal. We do some top secret styling stuff here, so having Lookie loos peeping in and reporting back to the New York Times could really take down our business. As you may remember, we recently added some window film to our living room and bedroom windows at my house that helps protect against UV rays and helps keep rooms cooler when it is warmer. But for our studio we had a slightly different issue to address. We needed to add some privacy and a pop of color to our rather drab floor to ceiling windows.

We all know that I am no stranger to wallpaper. I love it, I use it and I constantly find myself trying to get every single one of my clients to use it in their homes. We even did a massive wallpaper roundup last year where I showed you some my favorite sources. But, wallpaper can be daunting to shop for, commit to and hang. Not to mention it may not be the right solution for everyone… cue renters, commitment phobes, and squatters.

We are loving that the chunk is back. The cycle of trends has led us from the sleek and square…

Sometimes we get clients that are based right here in LA, who don’t want to do the full service design, yet still want to take advantage of our initial in-person consultation, along with our E-Design service. So today, we’re sharing an example of one of those clients (no, not the photo above – that’s Bri’s house that I designed years ago but it was a big source of inspiration for the client so we made it our opener photos.)
