Mid-Century Man

SUSTAINABLE:  to retain, reinvent, transform.

The October cover of San Diego Home/Garden Lifestyles magazine features my project at The Electra in San Diego.  My client had completely rebooted his life by relocating downtown, and we decided to explore a mid-century modern theme for a classic, comfortable, masculine retreat.

I designed the sofa, ottoman, and coffee table with clean lines in order to mix easily with iconic furniture like the Eero Saarinen Womb Chair and the Arne Jacobsen Egg Chair.  Inspired by bay views and evening sunsets, I splashed vibrant accents of dark crimson and deep blue against elegant but subdued backgrounds.

I accomodated the angles of this room’s challenging shape by designing a custom sized area rug.
