This is home. Your physical surroundings affect you in so many more ways than you realize - color, pattern, sound, the volume of space, efficiency, work flow, ergonomics, textures, temperature, light, and the nuances of details that tie it all together to make your story - well...YOURS. What do you want your space to say about you? What do you want to feel like when you walk through the door every day? What is your optimal environment that makes you uber productive and energized to do your best work? Design is highly personal, so these are the questions we aim to answer while working with you. It can be quite the balancing act of options & preferences because the definition of "YOU" often translates to you, your partner, your children, and beyond! To create your home, we do get to know you on a deeper level than say - your dentist. While the psychology behind it and final "ta-dah" moment sounds dreamy and all - working with a team that KNOWS their stuff and thinks through the outcome is just as critical to a project’s success. Communication with our clients, consultants, contractors and vendors throughout the process supports the overall end game - to have the home you've always dreamt of, at a budget that works for you, built in a way that's thoughtful and solid, and in a realistic time frame. We've traveled around the sun more than a few times in this industry (more than 20 ...and then we stopped counting to give our youthful side a boost), and our experience in both the commercial and residential design worlds have exposed us to a ton of both technical and theoretical situations - so it's a great combo! We can (and will) get our hands dirty. We are not afraid of questions because that is how we explore and learn. And there is no room for egos in our process - it's collaborative through and through. We are inventive solution seekers and nest makers for the place you call home - where ever that may be. Our doors are open – so come on in! ### Services Provided - Interior Design - Kitchen Design - Bathroom Design - Living Room Design - Bedroom Design - Color Consulting - Space Planning - Furniture Selection - Kids Bedroom Design - Dining Room Design - Custom Kitchen Cabinets - Lighting Design - Home Office Design & Construction - Custom Built-ins - Floor Plans - Playroom Design - Custom Furniture - Laundry Room Design - Nursery Design - House Plans - Art Selection - Guesthouse Design & Construction - 3D Rendering - Outdoor Kitchen Design - Custom Walk-in Closets - Drafting - Kitchen Remodeling - Home Office Design ### Areas Served - San Diego - University City - Encinitas - La Mesa - Point Loma San Diego - La Jolla - Ocean Beach San Diego - Coronado - Casa de Oro-Mount Helix - Solana Beach - Del Mar - Fairbanks Ranch - Rancho Santa Fe - Del Mar Heights San Diego - Hillcrest San Diego - Mission Hills San Diego - Mt.

Kitchen 2. Masterbath > These are some attributes that were important to us in which Karyn surpassed our expectations: > -Attention to detail > -Listened to our wants and needs > -Cost- conscious > -Consideration of functionality without compromising design > -Passionate about her profession > -Innovative > -Extremely knowledgeable of our preferred design style (contemporary/modern) > Highly recommend her and would hire her again for other projects!!! > > Karyn went above and beyond in her designs. She took the time to get to know what we were looking for (design as well as functionality) in our kitchen and master bath. She took into account our preferred style (contemporary), my love for concrete (or the concrete-look) as well as other materials (wood and marble flooring) which already existed in the house and added additional warmth to our home. > The kitchen is where I spend most of my time and now I love to be in there even more! Karyn created an open-concept kitchen with an incredible amount of storage. A unique, waterfall edge adds sleekness to our island area. 2 different types of counter top materials/patterns were used on the island and the contrast is amazing. The wood cabinets on the island and sink area provide some warmth next to the high gloss white cabinets ( floor to ceiling) which encase our flush-mounted stainless appliances. I love the clean lines, uniqueness and functionality. It's never a chore to be in our kitchen. She has created my dream kitchen!! > As for our bathroom....she created consistency and utilized the same counter top and warm wood material as the kitchen for the bathroom cabinets. She designed a unique floating vanity which included additional storage up the side walls (hard to picture, but it is amazing!!!) Concrete-Looking tile for flooring and up the shower area walls looks real classy with a glass partial panel in the shower. The linear shower drain added a very modern touch. Feels like I am getting ready at a spa every morning! To top it off, a reclaimed wood barn door closes off the bathroom from the bedroom. This is not just a door but a piece of art and once again adds warmth. Can't forget about my concrete sink :) > Karyn is an exceptional designer. Her creativity and passion shines through. We could tell she loves her profession. Her outside of the box thinking intrigued me and opened my eyes to additional features in our kitchen and bathroom which I wouldn't have even considered. Karyn, Thank you for creating these amazing spaces in our home and teaching me about design along the way. Will be in touch for the next project ;) **Comment from Sklar Studios:** > Sabrina - Holy smokes! Thank you, thank you, thank you for the amazing review and for inviting me to assist in designing your incredible new home. I may just have to copy paste your descriptions of everything to go along with the photos when we get in there to get it professionally photographed! It was such a fun process to work with you in making such a significant update to your house and making it truly yours for many years to come. It was an honor to be part of this process with you and Marc, and it makes me so happy to know just how much you love it. ### All 14 reviews **★★★★★ — Jennifer Habig, Feb. 2023** > Karyn came highly recommended and we were thrilled with both the outcome and the process. We wanted to stay true to the mid century style of our home, but still make it functional and livable for a family. Karyn listened intently to our preferences, asked great questions, got a good gauge of our style and needs, and guided us through the process. The range of options she was able to provide allowed us to make choices that fit our lifestyle, budget, and aesthetic. From vintage furniture and fine art to a couch our daughter can jump on, Karyn delivered. Our home is beautiful, but more than that, it feels like us. We love being in the environment she helped us create and enjoyed every minute of working with her. **Comment from Sklar Studios:** > Awe - thanks so much Jen & Josh. This was the A+ package deal - People + Project created the perfect formula for this one, and I can't thank you enough for trusting us with your home. What a special opportunity to get to know you and your family in this very special home...if I could just copy paste this experience all day long - I would! Truly, it was an honor. **★★★★★ — Jeffrey Wieler, Feb. 2023** > We engaged Sklar Studios for a challenging second story remodel. We had the space to work with, but the pre-existing layout made it very difficult to see the potential. Karyn Sklar was the perfect blend of practical approach combined with an artistic eye that worked very well for our project. She listened to our ideas, but was also not afraid to voice her opinion if she felt that something wouldn't work. She also did a masterful job of navigating the waters with contractors and deadlines as needed. I would highly recommend Karyn at Sklar Studios if you are considering a remodel. **Comment from Sklar Studios:** > Thanks so much Jeff! It was such a pleasure to work with you all and to transform your second story into something much more functional and beautiful. I love seeing the end result and to hear how the remodel is working for you! What a great before and after! Thank you so much for trusting me with your project! **★★★★★ — Tim Malone, Jan. 2023** > Sklar Studios is a detail oriented company that provides amazing design choices for their clients. They can handle all aspects of any project including construction management. > > We had our entire 1968 home, that had been untouched from its original condition, reimagined by Sklar Studios and we love it! Their team gave us four beautiful bathroom layouts that are designed impeccably. Our previously closed off kitchen is now wide open with a beautiful view and all of the finishing details were thoroughly planned out and executed. Our living spaces had many unique angles that needed to be seamlessly transitioned and they pulled it off perfectly. They were able to keep some of the midcentury charm while definitely adding the modern pop! > > We highly recommend Sklar Studios to design the space and home of your dreams! **Comment from Sklar Studios:** > Awe Tim, thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! I must say, you bought a house with some pretty rad bones and amazing views - it was an honor to be able to work on it with you and breath new life into it. I think what I loved the most about working with you and Kyle was watching the "light bulb go off" in your minds. It was a step and emotional transformation which required buy-in from what you were used to when living previously in a Craftsman style bungalow and then shifting gears to a totally different look & feel of a property. Putting trust in us to make that happen for you and honor your new home was just plain fun to be a part of. The process and banter along the way gave us many stories to tell in the life of a full house construction project, and all at the height of the pandemic. Thank you again for inviting us and trusting us to make your house a home! **★★★★★ — Natalie Chiles, May 2020** > Karyn has an amazing wealth of knowledge. Working with her for renovating half of our home was the best decision we made. Reworking so much of your home is an overwhelming task. Karyn presented us with multiple options. We started with the big picture, and narrowed it down to the fine details. Karyn was able to provide us with ideas we never would have thought of on our own, and to steer us away from things that would have been the wrong decision in the end. Without her guidance there is no way we would have the home we have today- we use every space, it's more efficient, and we enjoy being together in it so much more than we did before. **Comment from Sklar Studios:** > Working with you and your family was a dream, Natalie! Thank you for the kind words. I'm so thrilled that you love your new space - what a huge transformation!!! And BIG BONUS...it was so great to do the photo shoot with you, too oh talented one! **★★★★★ — Andy McRory Photography, Sept. 2017** > Over the past 2 years I've photographed several of Karyn's high-end design projects, and I'm always struck by how well she nails the details that link a whole-home or commercial design together. She approaches projects with an architectural eye (her background), which is perhaps why we work together so well. Even the smallest job takes on special significance when Karyn is in charge! My favorite thing about working with Sklar Studios is the breadth of work I've gotten to document: commercial, residential, institutional (private school facilities), houses of worship, and hospitality. All that experience goes into every future project, which benefits her clientele. **Comment from Sklar Studios:** > Right back at ya, Andy! You have such a great way of recording our spaces on film and for any format that we need. Your flexibility and understanding of how we like to frame our work is such an important part of the process and why we work together so well. We so respect your talents, and we have always enjoyed being on location and collaborating with you. Thank you for your kind words and for making our portfolio shine! **★★★★★ — Chris Haver Photography, Aug. 2017** > I have worked with Karyn, photographing her projects, multiple times now and one thing stands out. Her passion. She works hard for her clients and truly improves their spaces, whether it be residential or commercial. Collaborating with Karyn on the photo shoots is inspiring and she makes me a better photographer. It's been a pleasure capturing her creative and practical designs and I look forward to the next shoot! **Comment from Sklar Studios:** > Awe, thank you so much, Chris! The sentiments are mutual. You have a selective eye and are very detailed with your photography, and super patient with us and our requests when trying to capture the essence of the work we do. You are a trusted resource for us, and we look forward to highlighting many more projects with you! **★★★★★ — Randy Peerson, Aug. 2017** > I bought the condo for its location and layout. Most certainly not for the interior. In a nutshell, everything had to go. Knowing the place had to be gutted was the easy part. The hard part was finding an interior designer to transform the space. This was not an investment property. It would be my home. > > The scope of work covered nearly everything. The bathroom was completely gutted. New flooring throughout. Custom cabinetry. The list goes on. All furnishings would need to be acquired. Other than a few moving boxes full of documents Karyn would be starting from a clean slate. > > From the beginning Karyn was a joy to work with. She took the effort to learn my ‘must haves’, understand my design aesthetics and identify opportunities to impart aspects of my life into the project like my love of golf and travel. > > All the hard work paid off. I love the result. I entrusted my home to Karyn and she delivered beyond my expectations. **★★★★★ — Joellyn Zollman, Jan. 2017** > Karyn helped us to design a warm and beautiful living room and dining room that both reflects and fits our family. She was creative and practical, fun and detail-oriented. We cant wait to work with her again! **Comment from embrio design studio:** > Thank you so much, Joellyn! Your whole family (and pup) were a delight to work with! Everyone had input and contributed to the overall feeling and design direction...it really is a true reflection of your beautiful family. May you continue to enjoy it for many years to come & I hope to work with you again soon! **★★★★★ — Rockstar Builders, Inc., Oct. 2016** > Karyn of Embrio Design was a pleasure to work with. She created a wonderful design for the Homeowner, while keeping within a reasonable budget and addressing and meeting the Homeowners' needs and desires. She was easy to communicate and collaborate with and she helped to keep the job running smoothly and on time. As a General Contractor, I truly appreciate collaborations with professionals like Embrio Design. **★★★★★ — STEPHANIE WELLS, July 2016** > Professional, creative, extra ordinary. I had the pleasure of working on a contract lighting job with Embrio Design in the summer of 2015. They were tasked with remodeling the University Club of SD, a private professionals club with a long and respected history in San Diego. I entered the project mid way. > > I mostly worked with Karen. On a peer professional level, the information I needed to complete the project came quickly in a very comprehensive, detailed and thorough manner. When pressure was placed, either with materials or manner of delivery, Karen was quick to come up with cost effective solutions. Interacting with Karen was not only informative and functional, it was fun! My memories of that work experience brings a smile to my face. > > As designers, they brought ideas and resources to the project that were exactly what the client wanted, with a unique and creative twist. I overheard other professionals on the project comment that they thought they were one of the most innovative designer firms in San Diego. > > They worked on the project with dedication and determination into the late hours of the evening, personally installing some of the decorative artwork on the walls. > > When the club threw their launch party, I overhead the clubs management say that they loved what they had done and felt so good about the clubs changes. > > I would be honored to work with Embrio Design in the future. > I was impressed by them on all levels. **Comment from embrio design studio:** > The illustrious and talented, Stephanie!!!! Thank you so much for your kind review, and thank you even more for collaborating with us on The University Club project! Your ability to translate our vision into the absolutely gorgeous custom chandelier you created really made this project sparkle! We just did the photo shoot the other weekend, and can't wait to share the images with you & to post them for everyone to see! It's so rewarding for us to be able to work with people like you who enthusiastically join the team and turn our ideas into reality! Thank you my dear! We can't wait to work with you again! **★★★★★ — susie meltzer, April 2016** > Karyn Rovner-Sklar first designed and supervised our guest bathroom re-model. Her choices in marble and tile were breath-taking. She maximized space for storage, helped select fixtures and lighting and designed custom cabinets. It turned out gorgeous. She then designed our living room re-do. She incorporated our rare sofa with contemporary furniture that was exciting. She designed a porcelain tile wall over the fireplace that looks like a painting, added carpeting and custom shelves that give warmth to the space, and she even helped with finishing touches like the reframing of art. Her creativity, attention to detail (and cost) put her in a class above the rest. She was wonderful to work with.. **Comment from embrio design studio:** > Oh Susie & Eli - Thank you so much for your very kind words and your business!!! Love, love, love working with you guys through the years! The improvements to your home continue to make it better & better every day, and I'm so thrilled that you are enjoying it. Call on us any time! **★★★★★ — Murray Lampert Design, Build, Remodel, June 2015** > Embrio is great at helping homeowners achieve their lifestyle and space goals without breaking the bank. Successful home remodeling and construction comes from synergy and great collaboration between the Client, Architect, Designer and Contractor. To accomplish this, there needs to be a high level of trust, communication and transparency by all parties. I have worked with Embrio and have seen their teamwork firsthand! **★★★★★ — bambisd, Jan. 2015** > I have worked with Karyn over the course of the past 15 years on a number of different projects - two of my personal homes, my company's office, as well as several of our residential properties that we were preparing to sell on the market. While I know what it is I like in terms of style, I rely on Karyn and the team at Embrio to transform my ideas, come up with unique solutions, present me with options, pull it all together, and make it happen. As a developer, I've recommended them to several of our own clients both for residential and commercial projects. The fact that I've followed her career and hired her repeatedly for well over a decade speaks for itself. ## Selected projects - [For the Love of MCM!!!](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/for-the-love-of-mcm-pj-vj~7114023) - Location: San Diego, CA - Photos: 37 - Description: Magic like this just doesn't happen every day.

A serious transformation to this guest bathroom to a more calming experience was in order to better reflect the owners’ taste. While maintaining all the existing plumbing locations, we updated the vanity and fixtures, reused the existing Jacuzzi tub, uncovered the existing skylight to bring in a shower of daylight, added a built-in armoire, and chose some beautiful stones to better blend with the balance of the house.

Well you can't beat the amazing downtown and Pacific views from this fabulous pad which is what sold the pair on this property.

We've seen a lot, and I mean A LOT of real estate properties around the SoCal area, and so many of them have all the same, standard "blah", nondescript finishes and fixtures - even though they are marketed as "all brand new" - you just want to rip it all out and start over. It really doesn't have to be that way, and this home is a great example of how to do it… [See all 13 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/interior-designers-and-decorators/sklar-studios-pfvwus-pf~1259708374) ## Video - [Company video](https://player.vimeo.com/external/840725709.m3u8?s=735ccf2bac0dd96fcb92328c668f72689e824d91&oauth2_token_id=1384357804) ## Frequently Asked Questions **What types of interior design projects do you specialize in (full-home, single room, remodel support)?** We specialize in a wide range of residential and commercial projects, from full-home transformations and challenging remodels to single-room designs like kitchens, bathrooms, and living areas.
