We had a lovely time at the @lagunadesigncenter for their Spring Event! A day of sitting in on conversations held by leaders in the industry as well as time spent sourcing for our clients, all while enjoying yummy treats, what more could you ask for!? Meeting Barclay Butera himself (pictured) was a great experience as a designer and now we have a signed copy of his latest book to remember the day! Check out the reel posted on our IG for a glimpse into the full experience.
Another Day, Another Wallpaper!
But this time, it’s a beautiful mural!
We have dozens of wallpaper mural samples to see in our studio library. This one here was shown to us by our lovely Thibaut rep, Gina. There are murals for all kinds of themes, moods, and concepts. Call us to schedule an appt to see which one is right for you.
Small Business Spotlight
Jeff Egure Of Keller recently visited our studio and purchased some wallpaper for his bathroom remodel. Looking to purchase wallpaper he was able to see in person and not just order from an online retailer, his internet search had him traveling all the way to LA for what he thought was the nearest collection of tangible wallpaper he could see in person. Luckily, he didn’t stop there, as his research then steered him our direction! He was so satisfied with the experience that he wanted to share our business on his page. We are grateful to Jeff for his patronage and the shout out! Welcome back anytime, of course! His original message is below. :)
Trying to find it online can be a nightmare since you can’t see it in person with your own eyes and touch it with your own hands!! And don’t even dare try to install it yourself, lol! I am so grateful I found a stellar local option, Pace Design also known as The Wallpaper Store, in Brea. They have tons to choose from and their owner, Celeste, is very helpful! Check out the video below to learn more! #CommunityMatters #SupoortSmallBusiness #PaceDesign

Surfboard Chic Tile Tuesday!
Surf’s up with this surfboard chic porcelain tile we recently picked up at @ocmboutique! Designed in a collaboration between @erinadamsdesigns and @imaginetile, it comes in six color ways- terracotta, blue, cloud, sapphire, mint, and ebony.
Spring Floral Audio Trend
We couldn’t help ourselves when it came to jumping on this social media trend, using the audio from “Devil Wears Prada” that discusses Spring florals. We LOVE a floral patterned fabric and/or wallpaper, so it was easy to jump on the trend and make a version of our own! Check out the full video on our IG page.
International Wallpaper Appeal!
Our oh-so-wonderful design assistant (she may or may not be writing this post) recently came back from a trip to London and shared some photos of the Wallcoverings in Kensington Palace. I recognized that pattern as something in one of our in-studio books, checked the shelves and bam! There it was. Pretty neat to see patterns in our books on the walls of such a regal landmark abroad! Swipe for more beautiful photos from her trip to the palace and its gardens.
The wallpaper itself by @cole_and_son_wallpapers is part of “a collection of luxury wallpapers, which celebrate the skill and craftsmanship found in the palaces. The wallpaper here is called Gibbons Carving, and is based on the carvings by greenling Gibbons in the King’s Presence Chamber.”
Client’s Favorite Wallpapers This Week…
We made a fun video on Instagram the other day that shares the wallcoverings our customers chose to sample in their homes recently. Everything from modern to bohemian, the samples are so fun! It’s worth a watch!
Lovely Tile Option
Yesterday we stopped by @edpawlacktileinc and though we were there for something entirely different, this porcelain Plumeada Nevada tile caught our eye! With a satin finish glaze, it is professionally lab tested for all freeze, thaw, and pool chemical conditions, making it versatile indoors and outdoors!
Luxury Bedding Anyone?!
I’ve always been a longtime fan of @easternaccents and their new luxury bedding collections are no exception! I love the soft pallets with individual details that make them truly unique. These luxury bed sets are made with the finest materials and are designed by world renowned designers with impeccable style and taste.
We spend about one-third of our lives in bed either sleeping or attempting to do so. Think about it, if you live to be 90+, that’s over 30 years in bed! So why not make sure that they are the most comfortable 30 years they can be!?
Quick Client Feedback...
When asked about her experience working with us at Pace Design, client Marsha said “I love all the new things that have been added and appreciate their knowledge of design and color…”. It was a pleasure working with this couple and we are so happy them to enjoy their new pieces!

A Little Tile Inspiration
Last week I attended an event held by @asidoc at the SOCO Design Center in Costa Mesa. It was fun to tour the showrooms and reconnect with other designers in the industry. While visiting the @annsacks_orangecounty showroom, I absolutely fell in love with this concrete tile! Designed by @kellywearstler, this tile is part of the Gem series, that Kelly states was created to “ pay homage to the revered, age old artistry required to create encaustic tiles.” The unique pattern also mirrors the nonconformity we see in nature, it’s handmade appearance creating an illusion of depth and texture. Visit our IG page for more pictures of these fabulous tiles!
