A little sneak peek at something extraordinary coming to Menlo Park… We’re excited to share a first look at the upcoming “Bar Vignette” at Atelier Design Society, a new luxury cabinetry showroom in the heart of Menlo Park.

Designed by Shelly Garza of CURATE Designs, this sophisticated space celebrates the art of entertaining with striking natural stone, rich textures, bespoke cabinetry, and thoughtfully curated details.

A beautiful blend of luxury, craftsmanship, and timeless design.

Stay tuned for the grand opening and reveal!

We had the pleasure of attending the San Francisco Fall Show this week, the West Coast's oldest and largest continuously operating international art, antiques, and design fair. Walking through decades (and centuries) of craftsmanship across every style and period was the kind of inspiration that sticks with you long after you've left the room.

Thank you to for the invitation! It's moments like these that remind us why we fell in love with design in the first place: the stories objects carry, the history behind every piece, and the way thoughtful curation can transform a space into something truly felt.

We're honored to share that CURATE Designs has been named Morgan Hill's 2026 Interior Designer, Silver Award winner!

At the heart of every project is a collaboration— an opportunity to thoughtfully shape a home around the people who live there. This recognition belongs just as much to the clients who have trusted us with their homes and to the community that continues to support our work.

We're incredibly grateful and never take that trust for granted.

Here's to another year of creating thoughtful, beautifully curated spaces that belong distinctly to you. Thank you to all that have voted for and support CURATE Designs!

Great design begins with collaboration. Taking the time to listen, learn, and truly understand our clients—their lifestyle, needs, and vision—is essential to creating a custom design that feels both intentional and uniquely theirs.

This guest bath was ready for a new chapter—designed to welcome three grown girls home from their busy, exciting lives with a space that feels sophisticated, warm, and entirely their own.

The concept layers a warm walnut vanity with stunning honed marble, brass fixtures, and marble mosaic flooring that flows seamlessly into the shower pan. The result is a thoughtful mix of warmth, character, and timeless sophistication.

From mood board to renderings, demo to rough-in, we’re watching the vision come to life one layer at a time.

Stay tuned for the finished space—we can’t wait to share how this one comes together.

Good design does more than look good. It shifts how you feel in a space, how well you function in it, and yes, what your home is worth. We build every project around that idea, because a beautiful room that doesn't work for your life isn't actually finished.

Standing in the middle of demolition is exciting for me as a designer—but for a client, it can feel a little overwhelming.

That’s where renderings become such a valuable part of the design process. They bridge the gap between the construction phase and the finished vision, providing a clear visual representation of how the space is intended to come together.

When everything feels temporarily undone, renderings help clients see beyond the dust and demolition—and stay connected to the beautiful, thoughtfully designed space taking shape.

Not every interior design project requires construction. Sometimes, the transformation comes from thoughtfully reimagining how a home is lived in—creating a functional layout, selecting furnishings that complement the architecture, and curating pieces that reflect the needs and lifestyle of the family who lives there.

As a full-service interior design firm, our work extends well beyond renovations. From space planning and furniture selections to the final layers that bring warmth and personality, every detail is intentionally considered to create a home that feels cohesive, personal, and complete.
This client review speaks to exactly that experience: moving into a fully curated home where everything has been thoughtfully selected and placed, allowing the house to truly feel like home.

Here’s a glimpse into the slab layout process for our kitchen countertops and backsplash.

It’s a step that can easily be underestimated—or even overlooked—but one that has a significant impact on the finished space.

When slab cuts are thoughtfully planned, those transitions allow the natural rhythm of the stone to continue throughout the space, honoring its unique character while creating a composition that feels cohesive and intentional.

Because with natural stone, every cut matters—and every character is a part of the stone's story.
