Sherwood Forest

This 1930s Spanish Colonial is a masterpiece of architectural history, featuring elements salvaged from a Spanish monastery. With sweeping views stretching to the Pacific Ocean, the home’s striking California-cool aesthetic blends seamlessly with its storied past.

This project was love at first sight. Our challenge—and passion—was to preserve the home’s architectural integrity while infusing it with the personality and warmth of its owners. We thoughtfully layered contemporary furnishings with antique elements, honoring its heritage while ensuring a fresh, livable feel. A palette of neutral tones and natural textures highlights the home’s craftsmanship, allowing its rich history to take center stage.
