My Work

You could say this blog is turning into one big tease... and I'm so not usually a fan of teasers! Many of you have asked to see my work, and truth is nothing is finished yet (hence why everything is being teased) But one of my projects is moving along seamlessly, and I thought I'd share with you what we have so far :)

The clients actually lives about 1.5-2 hours away from me so we've done everything so far via the internet. But one of my favorite wholesale furniture stores delivers to their town, so I'm still able to pick out all the fabric and furniture for them in person.

They actually live right by the beach (lucky!) so we are going with a beachy feel without the beachy "theme". Blues, casual pieces, you get the drift :)

Here is the plan...




Fabric all laid out...


Isn't this chair great? It's from urban outfitters. It's really the only piece the have so far.. but that will change soon!


On a side note - aren't their floors great?? I didn't pick them out, but I love them!

I can't wait to see the finished product... on this project and all my projects! I'm going to hire a professional photographer to shoot this house and also one other home I'm working on.

Speaking of, any photographers in Los Angeles who would be interested in shooting this home? If so, please shoot me an email.

    Looks GREAT so far Bryn! Can't wait to see the finished room!
    Side note - I hate how long it takes to design a room some times! I get so excited to put it all together and then the waiting game begins. 5 weeks for the fabric, 8 weeks for the sofas, 4 weeks for the chandelier...
    UGH!

    I adore that chair and the indigo blue.
    I was just admiring a book last week, "Blue and White" a C. Roehm book... Blue always adds a casual elegance.

    Love the chair. The blue and white is the perfect compliment to the dark wood floors.

    Hi Bryn,
    I have been looking for a good "natural" lamp that still speaks a modern vibe. Where did you find these?

    Answer to questions:

    - The two stores are actually one and the same, it's called Urbanism in Costa Mesa.

    - The lamps are from Wistera.com

    - The couch is also from Urbanism, local to Orange County, and I just photoshopped the fabric. The fabric I choose is gray microfiber.

    I love that chair, and have been eyeing it myself! How is it in person - can the fabric withstand actually sitting on? I am thinking of pairing two of them in my living room/sitting area...

    I have also been looking at that chair for a while... is it comfortable? Durable? The price is certainly right!
