Insiders view of a project from planning to complete: Research

Los Angeles has a long history of beautiful courtyard style living. With the new courtyard style project we were hired to update, we scanned through photos and books for inspiration. When Nadia lived in New Orleans, she lived in a townhome in the french quarters off of Jackson Square. So history and happy memories became inspiration for the design.

We loved the look of the white stucco for a clean updated look.

Using Saltillo Tile with blue accent tiles allowed the building to maintain the Spanish feel we were going for.

We also wanted to tie in the blue accent tiles with different sizes of blue pots.
