Italian Kitchen designers are world renown for their sleek design, rich colors, an smooth finishes. Coastal Home Design Studio works with clients to create a modern interior to match your lifestyle. Throwback designs, blended with a modern touch create kitchens, baths, and interior spaces that are exquisite, clean, and fun. Colors range from red to mocha, wood veneers to black. White cabinetry with charcoal or red blends create a unique and coastal feel. The Italian influence in cabinetry and style are a perfect match for our coastal life style. It was exciting to bring on our line of Italian cabinets and then jump on a plane with a good friend in the San Diego design world and head to Milan for the world wide design show. We had a fantastic time previewing the best the world has to offer. By world, I mean world. Building after building with every design and fine construction material available to man. The Italian countryside is very similar to our world in California. Our tie in to Italy is amazing. So bring a taste if Italy to your home, and come look at our beautiful line of Italian cabinetry. See you soon.

Today I am sitting in the hospital with my 14 year old son. The poor guy broke his leg at a skate park in five places! Not good for my precious son, but the staff at Tri-City has done a great job! So did the Carlsbad Medics who patched him up enough to get him safely to the hospital. It didn't hurt that the Fire Department is located right next door to the park. Thanks to everyone for all your help! Speaking of help, please come help yourself to a fun gathering at my showroom for the Taste of Vista. We will be hosting a wonderful local brewery paired with gourmet local chocolates. On site will be the fine furnishings of Beyond The Front Door, a premier interior decorating firm, as well as our extensive kitchen, bath, hardware and flooring lines. Contact me or the Vista Village Business Association for more info. You are cordially invited!

So I promised pictures of my trip to the design show in Milan, Italy......and yes.......my husband said I could blame it on him....but they are coming. Here is the thought for the day, we live in a world economy, Italy is now considered around the corner. At Coastal we specialize in the unique and creative.

Smooth, blended lines, and colorful European design bring style and brightness to your home. Blend stainless and a Jeffrey Court back splash and you have a recipe for style and comfort. From old world to contemporary, come talk to our design team to discuss your next project. We are here to serve you!  

I want to thank the men and women of the United States armed forces for the sacrifice that they have made for our freedom. I am so grateful to live in a country that believes so passionately in freedom. This wonderful nation called the United States of America was forged by our founding fathers, on the foundation of blood, sweat, and tears. For all those who have sacrificed for our freedom I am eternally grateful. Today I am thinking of the families who are left behind as their mothers and fathers head out to the battle field. The families left behind struggle with so many issues from broken marriages, teens in crisis, not knowing if their loved one will return home, and list goes on. Mothers and Fathers work to keep the family faith and hold it all together. Today lets make a commitment to pray and support the families at home as well as our forces around the world.

I love spending time with great people at the Steak House in La Jolla. That brings me to my point today..... relationships matter. Relationship is the key point on which quality business and client relationships are built on. Trust, care, and concern are the foundational components. I do not want to work or live any other way. In relationship there is freedom, a freedom that knows that those whom you are in relationship with will have your best interest in mind. When I start a project with a client it is critical for me to get to know that client. Inside of them is locked the dream that I work to understand and implement. The process is fascinating and invigorating. The final product, a result of an artistic endeavor.

Now that I am blogging I can finally share my innermost thoughts to the world. Nothing excites me more than working with great clients putting together exquisite projects. The materials are exciting and range from stainless steel to copper, from woods to granite. Natural materials make up the life of a home and add warmth. The outside is brought in, and we can feel the beauty of nature. Of course San Diego is a premier location to open the doors wide and make a congruous passage to the outside world extending your home into your garden with  beautiful outdoor fireplaces, furniture and decor. With summer approaching there is no better time create this wonderful arrangement.  Please drop by the showroom and start a conversation that will change the way you live! Stay tuned for more thoughts and please visit our website at coastalhomedesigncenter.com, and our new web under construction at coastalhomedesignstudio.com . Ciao :)
