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!
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!?
Some 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!
Before and After - Placentia Primary Bath Remodel
We are pleased to share final looks of our primary bath remodel in Placentia, CA. Our client was a pleasure to work with and couldn’t be happier with the end result. Thanks to the teams at @specceramicsinc, @faucetsnfixtures, Custom Carpentry, and G.C. Tom Lund for all their hard work to help make this bath perfect!
Wallcovering with Matching Fabric Options
Want a print that can be used both on your walls and furniture? Look no further!
Swipe ahead for gorgeous new patterns available in wallpaper AND fabric by @harlequinfw. We just received the sample books in our studio and can’t get enough!
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!
A quick little refresh at the office …
With all the samples we have here, we saw an opportunity to display items for client visits and inspiration. We installed a few shelves across from our wallpaper library to showcase tile, fabric, flooring- you name it! Once completed it felt like it’s been here all along!
Project Progress
Progress update on the Placentia project!
We’re almost done with the primary bath renovation for our client - just a few last details to dial in! We will definitely be back with more at that time but just had to share some of the major changes until then!
The homeowner’s goal for her primary bath was to remove an unused jacuzzi tub and turn the space into a large shower with a station to groom her pooch too. 🐾 She also wanted to replace the very 90’s window with a more modern layout. We think this blue and gold combination is just stunning and can’t wait to show you the rest!
Wallpaper Wednesday
Check out the final look of this wallpaper the installer took at our client’s home in Fullerton! The homeowner came to us looking for a bright blue + white wallpaper with a pop of red. We were able to find her something that gave her all three and perfectly compliments what you see while in the room, from the green of her glassware to the various elements of red in the garden.
Monday Motivation
It’s a new week! Meaning a new opportunity to make things happen for yourself. Whether you’re starting a new project, changing something significant in your life or hoping to continue on a path toward your goals that you’ve already begun, the start of the week often sets the tone for the rest of the week. There’s a good amount of motivational quotes out there but one of my favorites by MLK Jr. says “You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.”
Textured tile of our dreams!
Available in five colors, the Stardust collection by @wow_designeu is inspired by outer space. This porcelain tile, both delicate yet resilient, works great throughout the home, inside and out. We have a reel on Instagram showing some of the different ways this tile can be incoporated into the home. Check it out!
New Collections
Last week we were visited by Harsey and Harsey rep @jackieatharsey who had some new Harlequin and Scalamandre collections to share with us. Fabulous doesn’t begin to describe these pieces! They were full of color and whimsy, each one more unique than the last!
There’s plenty more than what you see in the video on Instagram. See something you’d like to incorporate into your home? Let us know!
New Project Alert
There’s nothing more exciting than the start of a new project!
Ok maybe seeing everything come together in the end is just as exciting! But a new project gives us the opportunity for a fresh design, which gets the creative juices flowing! Designers - what’s your favorite part of the process?
Feeling moody blues on this ✨Wallpaper Wednesday ✨
Over on our Instagram yesterday we posted a video of wallcoverings we have in our showroom and what they look like after installation. So often we are asked how a paper from a wallcovering book would actually look and sometimes it can be difficult to determine from a small sample!
Blue has a calming and relaxing affect on our psyche. It often provides peace to those who surround themselves in the color. So why not invite that kind of feeling into your home?

Compound that with our expertise in the field and dedication to providing cost effective selections, these are just some of the reasons to hire a professional to assist you through the process.
Transformed for less!
A recent powder room remodel we did in Yorba Linda goes to show how you can make a stunning transformation without breaking the bank.
Looking to update the Mediterranean vibe in her home to something more modern, the homeowner reached out to us to help her with the process. We sourced a new wallcovering, mirror, and light fixture that gave the room a fresh new look. She originally thought to also replace the pedestal sink but after seeing the dramatic change made from the three other elements, realized that now the sink compliments the room and needn’t be changed! This saved her a good amount of money that can now be put towards another room remodel. We’re happy she’s happy and love the end result!
Fabric selections underway!
Working on a quick project for a past client who wants a new custom chair and pillow for her living room. With a color story in mind, we selected the patterns that would best compliment the sofa, throw pillows, and rug we furnished months back. Final reveal to come!
