During my design career, I have made it my goal to create a special look for each of my clients. A signature look of "Casual Elegance" to every project no matter the style from Transitional to Tuscan. I listen carefully to your needs to provide a collaborative and professional custom design solution. A design vision you are dreaming of owning. One that you will love for years. I have been working in the industry since 1978, first as one of the owners of Fireside Furniture Gallery in Salinas, as a manufactures rep for national and international furniture companies, has A.A.

Paula Reynolds
Interior Design

I have a passion for interior design and use my creativity and experience to interpret my clients needs. Attending courses in design on the Monterey peninsula and on the east coast I have both the formal education and the innate ability to turn the ordinary into the awe inspiring.

Let me create an environment for you that fits your ideas, enhances the space and brings beauty into your home while making it fun in the process.

Linda O'Brien
Director Visual Merchandise Design

My design career spans over 25 years in the San Francisco Bay Area with the last 13 years as Director of Visual Merchandise Design at Poppleton's. More important to me than the opportunity to create unique showroom display themes, is the excitement found in the challenge of combining extraordinary furnishings and seeing the result of the display rooms when they are complete. I look forward everyday to creating the most appealing visual design showroom displays that will inspire the designer in all of us.
