CASA _ SAN PONCHO

San Poncho (San Francisco) is a buzzling beach town on the Nayarit coast of Mexico.

This Casa offers a private space to enjoy luxurious queen beds, a salt water pool and plenty of space to find vignettes to enjoy moments in between full-on life.

This was such a fun project and used what I love to do - create a WABI SABI space. Use what is available, up cycle and repurpose and add new. I swapped out furniture and designed light fixtures (to come). Works well on an environmental budget.

It is very common here to do cement sofas. My client wanted to do this but I talked her into upgrading what she had. Cement sofas - although inexpensive are not that comfortable. I wanted lush and comfy - something you can sink into.

The existing sofa to hold a custom made cushion ( to come).

She also mentioned she always wanted a library - there was a sink in this area (not sure why). We took the sink out and I suggested we cut the top shelf out, use the second shelf for a seating area - using a long built in cushion with plush cushions at both ends with reading lamps. The bottom layer to house all the books.

I love creating vignettes.
