Story time on how this dining room started with a desire to do something completely different.
The clients wanted a space that felt unexpected for them. California coastal in spirit, layered and vibey in ex*****on. A room that felt relaxed, expressive, and designed for how they gather as a family.
As we got to know them, the design naturally evolved. We pushed into richer textures, deeper contrast, and a more maximalist approach. Statement drapery grounds the room, a woven tiered chandelier adds sculptural presence, and a mix of velvet and boucle brings softness and dimension. Each fabric was chosen to stand on its own, while still contributing to a cohesive whole.
The result is a dining space that feels bold, layered, and personal. A departure from the familiar, and a reflection of where they were ready to go next.
