Riviera Residence

Los Angeles, Ca. Photographer: Amy Bartlam.  This southern California Spanish inspired home came with great bones, but in our remodel we were able to expand the kitchen and create a master suite.   We opened up spaces and added French doors allowing for a more inspired interior.  We also created a guest courters.  Using the existing features as inspiration, we added exposed beams in the main spaces, darkened the floors, added encaustic tiles to the kitchen and bathrooms.  The exterior also saw a cosmetic transformation and all new landscaping in a Mediterranean feel.  The family recently welcomed a son and we were able to finish out the rooms of the house with a serene nursery.

With an extensive remodel already underway, Jette was hired to furnish this unique home as well as help tie up loose ends with remaining construction. The client had specific needs: as a family of five with three very active boys, comfort and durability were just as important as color, line, and scale.
The homeowners’ love of all things Eames gave us a great starting point for inspiration, as did their lifestyle, which is full of friends and family. We relocated the dining room outside so that the interior of the home could be dedicated to the types of gathering spaces perfect for entertaining. The rust sofa, which feels comfortable and warm but also fun and flexible, is another highlight of the space.
