This house, located in the Californian city of Santa Barbara, is a striking example of the Spanish colonial style: white plastered walls, red tiled roof, spacious balconies, arches and towers. The main task of the Malgosia Migdal Design studio was to turn the mansion into an ideal place to relax on the coast and at the same time emphasize its historical value.

The house belongs to a couple of well-known lawyers from Beverly Hills, for whom the bureau has designed several residential and commercial properties. “The customers turned out to be the complete opposite of expectations,” says studio founder Malgosia Migdal. — At the first meeting, they showed me their dressing room, where I saw shirts of all colors of the rainbow, sorted by shades. And when we were discussing their new home in Santa Barbara, the words “there just isn’t enough yellow furniture in the world” sounded like a reminder that they love bright colors, and we weren’t afraid to add color to the interior.”

An example of this is the guest bathroom, the walls of which are decorated with multicolored cement tiles. “Guests often note that this wall is worthy of a selfie on Instagram,” says the designer.

Another bright “spot” was a large-scale painting in red-brick tones, which decorates the spacious hallway. The rest of the interior is made in a muted palette, and all the attention is attracted by the textures of various materials: leather, wood and soft textiles.

The favorite place of the owners has become an outdoor terrace, where they spend evenings and arrange romantic dinners. “Sometimes customers send a photo at sunset and another “thank you” for the serene house that we have created for them,” Migdal adds.
