We’re celebrating one of our favorite ingredients in both design and cuisine: chocolate. It just makes a space feel instantly cozy. 🤎

This lower-level lounge was created as the ultimate gathering space. Whether it's movie night, game day, or simply unwinding after a long week, every detail was thoughtfully considered to make this room feel both elevated and inviting.
The stunning curved sofa from anchors the space with its sculptural silhouette, creating an intimate conversation area while offering plenty of room to stretch out and relax. Paired with a custom fireplace, this room is designed to live in..And who doesn’t want a hand stitched wool throw to curl up in?

Some design trends come and go, but a few classics never lose their charm.

Sharing my thoughts with Real Simple Magazine on Interior Design Choices You'll Never Regret was such a delight, and one of my favorites made the list: cabana stripes.

Whether they're showing up on a poolside chaise or a tailored dining chair, cabana stripes bring an effortless sense of style that feels just as at home in a coastal retreat as it does in a traditional or contemporary space. They're crisp, relaxed, and a little bit playful.

The best part? They have a way of making every day feel a little more like a vacation.

Thank you to Real Simple for including my perspective on timeless design choices that continue to stand the test of time.
