Approach:
Wendy | owner + principle designer
Originally from the East Coast, I made the cross-country trek to permanently reside in sunny San Diego where I now enjoys the warm, amazing West Coast lifestyle. I am a sun-worshipper, creative DIY-er, bulldog mom and plant enthusiast. In my free time you can find me enjoying the outdoors, hiking, taking photographs, gardening, painting and renovating my Southern California home.
Before starting my interior design career, I studied visual communications & marketing and have worked in graphic design, marketing, fashion and other design related professions for over 20 years.
Great designs have the power to transform
your overall energy and well-being.
I have always had a passion for well curated cozy spaces that make you feel good just being present. After many years in the graphic design industry, I went back to school to study interior design so that I can help myself and others achieve that same feeling of well-being in their own personally curated spaces.
My Esthetic:
Classic meets a little bit of modern and boho.
I typically gravitate towards light and airy spaces with lots of natural light. I love to incorporate natural and raw materials of wood, rattan and leather mixed with soft
linens and cottons. Then add a pop color or fun patterns through pillows and
accessories that I can be easily rotate and change out for quick “Room Refresh”.
OHH and I can’t forget about the plants! I am a huge plant enthusiast.
That being said, I do love many different styles such as a dark moody room or the coastal farmhouse look... A good interior designer can appreciate different styles and work within those, to help their clients achieve the look and feel they want.
I will work with you in your personal style,
and help you curate a space that you will
love and be excited to call home!

unique energy that makes you feel good every time you walk in the door.”
