The Happy House | Altadena, California

Designed for a family of four, this project transforms the home’s central gathering spaces into a bold, uplifting, and highly functional environment. Guided by a devoted mother and advocate balancing work and family life at home, the design embraces a fearless use of chartreuse, layered with high-contrast neutrals and vibrant accents of orange and blue. A classic checkered stone floor and delicate patterned wallpaper define the entry, offering a striking introduction to the home’s playful yet refined palette, while a richly toned maroon bar anchors the space—adding depth, contrast, and a moody sophistication. Reupholstered heirloom pieces are seamlessly integrated with curated new elements, resulting in a space that feels fresh, uncluttered, and full of personality..
