My Summer Obsession



With Summer right around the corner, entertaining on my new porch is all I can think about! Fresh cut hydrangeas, chilled rosé, and a great playlist are essential to our fun nights.

Looking over the water or the garden, a porch is a room that distinguishes itself from the rest of the house.  Open or enclosed they are the perfect place for entertaining, spending time with your family and friends, or quiet time for yourself.  Usually decorated with  more casual furnishings and a bit more whimsy than the rest of the house is what creates the charm of a porch.


One of my favorites we did for a client! The use of patterns and soft lines of the wicker furniture have made this porch for our clients in Los Angeles one of the favorite rooms in the house.

This dining area of our clients house runs the length of the house and is accessible from the living room, entry, and dining room.  




Charming and oh so country







This looks just like our porch and we're planning to line those steps with hydrangeas this summer and big pumpkins in the fall.



This just might be the ultimate in outdoor porches... a fireplace!!!
