No. 01
Westgate project, Trade Secrets for the home

Brentwood, California

Westgate

Located in Brentwood, California, a house architected by award winning Lorcan O'Herlihy was entirely stripped and transitioned into a modern paradise filled with chic comfortable furnishings and textures. A sophisticated palette lends itself to this seamless interior and exterior scape, where large weekend gatherings abound frequently. At the heart of this home lies an open floorplan which connects itself via a glass faced bridge-way uniting the 2 ensuite bedrooms and home office.

Sussex Court project, Trade Secrets for the home

Rancho Mirage, California

Sussex Court

Reimagined, this 3 bedroom, 4 bathroom resort-like home is nestled into Rancho Mirage's prestigious Morningside Golf & Tennis Community, exposing itself to outstanding lakeside and mountain views. Fabrics such as mohairs, velvets and linens, and light oak stains, were selected for this modernized space, yet allowing for a sophisticated yet casual setting. Met by a beautiful courtyard entry landscaped with new mature succulents and a corten steel trough water feature. A permanent vacation.
