Have any design professionals worked on this space? No

Why is your home the smallest, coolest space?

When we first visited Oceanside, we fell in love with this little neighborhood called South O. It’s quaint, by the ocean, and is walking distance to so many great restaurants and coffee shops. When we were looking for a rental, we wanted something with character that reflected our beach lifestyle. I specifically wanted a lot of natural light and real hardware floors. The morning light is amazing!

How does your home reflect you?

We live in a small space, so it’s important for me to buy things with intention. A lot of the items in our home double as practical but also beautiful. Professionally, I’m an artist and a designer, so we have a lot of handmade pieces as well as a pieces by some of my favorite makers.
