 Tired but happy....just finished the extreme makeover of a private house in Santa Monica...

The client called me and he told me his wife was leaving for 3 weeks...he wanted to do a extreme makeover while she was away...everything in secrete,...because he wanted to surprise her.

3 weeks????A

he wanted something sexy...modern.. completely change the feeling of  the dark and out of date house they were living in.

PANIC...what can i do... how all the furniture could arrive in time...so i called the painter to calm down the stress and after 4 days the house was completely painted with new colors...grey black red..the grey opened up the space amazingly...the red was giving a touch of sexy to the bedroom...the black on the entrance ( following the Feng Shui Philosophy ) should bring good stuff on a career level..success and luck!

After a week the stress went away...it was just fun...shopping and seeing my concept becoming real so quicly!

usally hospitality design projects take from 6 months to years to be completed!

so i chose to mark the walls with adhesive vinyl ( ctrl-arch tatoo), artwork created by different artists ( my dad too) and i bought pieces of design as the alienology lamp to give a modern and unique touch to the house!

Pieces of design and artist rigorously talented but not "branded"...custom furniture...and touch of my craziness. 

so...the day is so close....we missed so much stuff.... we will arrive to do the extreme makeover in 3 weeks????

 we did.

I ' ve just received a call from the wife...many thanks and compliments...I'm smiling. 

I like to make people happy with my dreams!
