The interior design images displayed on this website are intended to illustrate the styles, concepts and overall aesthetic that California Motifs can bring to its clients, and they are representative visualizations of the various geographies in which I have lived.
These images are provided for inspiration and to demonstrate potential design direction, including furnishings, color palettes, materials, lighting, spatial relationships, and overall style. Each California Motifs’ project is individually developed to reflect the client’s home, preferences, lifestyle and budget, as evidenced by the numerous testimonials from previous clients.
