Neutrals with pops of color are what inspire me this beautiful May! I’m feeling coastal blues and taupes with splashes of white and sunshine yellows … doesn’t that feel happy? ☀️

Happy weekend friends!!

It’s May 1st!!! Hooooow did my birthday month go

It’s May 1st!!! Hooooow did my birthday month go so fast?! What a celebratory whirlwind. I feel so blessed this late in my age to call my new friends some of my best friends and my oldest friends family. From girl trips to couples weekends, an epic spin ride to old school clubbing, seeing my favorite Mumford & Sons, a spring break to client installs… I mean, just wow! Thank you to all of you for your best wishes. Here’s to more #workhardplayhard ahead!

As I age gracefully (or not), I find myself realizing more and more that it truly has never been about the big things. It’s always been in the small moments that I feel as accomplished and loved as ever. A sunny day after days of clouds, a kind gesture from a stranger, a sweet text from a client, a hug you don’t know you needed, a FaceTime from one of my kids… little yet “big” things.

Let us not always look so hard toward the future’s goals so as to forget the small moments in our present time. Take a pause and remark on today’s moment that fills your bucket and tickles your heart 🫶🏻

You guys NGL some days are just harder and messier

You guys NGL some days are just harder and messier than others. And when it’s a Monday, the hard feels harder and the messier feels uglier. This is when it’s most important to sit in all the feelings and process through the yuckies in order to see the light ahead. So if you’re having one of those days when nothing seems to be going right… remember that you are human. It’s going to be ok. If not now, soon. Go for a walk, hug your dog, reach out for support. Do what makes you feel like you can turn this day around. You ain’t alone.
We all see each other 🫶🏻

A sneak peek into our #californiadreaming project

A sneak peek into our #californiadreaming project and the millions of one of a kind vessels we used to transform the space. We love sourcing from local artisans who travel the globe to curate beautiful collections of pieces… and make our jobs look easy! It’s all about the hunt sourcing for new found vessels and the thrill of sharing each hand picked, unique item with our clients.

Can’t wait to show you more 🫶🏻

Today is not your typical #transformationtuesday … As I quickly approach a big milestone birthday, I find myself reflecting on blessed beautiful moments and yet beautifully tumultuous times too. No life is full without its bumps in the road right?

In order of these photos, I began my career leading the residential design and marketing efforts for a global hospitality firm (and yes that’s young brunette me with the one and only Vern Yip!), and loooooved my worldly job. But after facing a scary health crisis that made me re-think my path and with my family’s support, I left corporate behind and took the ultimate leap into entrepreneurship. I swear that surf picture was the pivotal moment I decided to launch on my own. They say saltwater fixes everything right? Gah!

I began working in the construction-design space for a local builder and absorbed every detail like a sponge. My love for the independence brought me to ignite my passion for exterior design and so began GLDESIGN. From planters to garden beds to masonry to backyards, this girl built a portfolio of over 65 clients in one year. But let’s face it, my love for interior design never quit and I slowly crept inside people’s homes and began officially transforming interior spaces for a living… a real pinch me moment!

Through all of that, I got hit by a car (and almost died but we’ll get into that another time), I lost my dad to cancer (way too young), covid happened and I moved my mom closer to my family in Fairfield (best decision ever).

There have been many successes but also many failures that have led to today and the road has been and still is long. What a privilege it is to be “training for life.” I never thought I’d make it to 50 and this thing called living is my most proud accomplishment 🫶🏻

Seeing our colors come to life has been one of the most rewarding moments and it’s of no surprise that Morning Mist blew me away when installed at our #moderncoastal project. The perfect blue-grey hue with a touch of the sea… Explore my A La Plage paint collection and enjoy 🤍
