Buongiorno Lovlies!
So today I thought I’d switch it up from the normal Dressed Myself Tuesday and show you a few pics of a house I recently dressed :)
Since I moved to LA from NY 2 years ago I have been diving into the wild, wild world of Interior Design. I have done some commercial, some hospitality – but my passion in residential. So, when my beloved parents moved back to Cali after 10 years in Europe I jumped at the opportunity to do up their abode!
They are renting for now, so we didn’t think it wise to invest too much money in the place- which made it a super DIY extravaganza- my favorite kind! Lots of re-upholstery, thrift store finds, painting . . . The request was Fall colors, with Mid-Century furniture mixed in with some pieces that make the place feel homey and welcoming (cause the Mid-Century stuff can be a little cold). Along with my partner in crime; the fabulous Jean, we transformed this humble shack into a lovely little haven.
This is one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite Frenchies; Serge Gainsburg, Couleur Cafe

I love it!! Great design; it absolutely has the Ronnie and Chalos feel to it. You captured their essence in your design choices.
Want to come do a beach house in Huntington?? Please…

Wonderful job! I LOVE the view into the kitchen, as framed by that steaming orange wall (by far my favorite color) as well as the credenza in the dinning nook…such a lovely mix! What I am tickled by is the way in which the home seems loved, lived in, warm, and accessible, though newly “done”–it seems a true reflection of it’s inhabitants!
Ps. Serge melts my heart, among other things!

That humble shack was known by many in LA as The Lodge while I was residing there. Great job! I should have had you make it over when I was living there.
