Beautiful Banquette
This was such a fun project. My client recently downsized to a small chateau inspired apartment in San Diego so she could spend more time trotting the globe. Her budget was tight and we wanted to make use of the space and lack thereof in every possible way.
With some creative thinking and magical hands we were able to shape-shift her once pub table dining area into a cozy romantic nook. The baskets came in handy making room for extra storage space. I love the thought of her sipping coffee while reading the paper here on Saturday morning.
BEFORE
Before and Afters
I knew when I walked in the doors of this 1910 craftsman home I was in love. I grew up in a Craftsman in Redlands, California built around the same time and it reminded me so much of all the family memories we shared. The character is endless in this home. The owners have lived in it for 40 years, were newlyweds when they moved in and recently celebrated the christening of their first granddaughter.
The transition has been an artistic process. Being that the homeowners have resided in this residence for so long they had quite the collection of one of a kind finds which I love!
We were able to mix in a lot of what they already owned with new treasures.

All of the mirrors placed on this refurbished mantle have been collected throughout the 40 years of ownership.
