She has exceptional design sense and was wonderful to work with. We love the end result and will use Bricolage for our future renovations. **★★★★★ — chriseck, Jan. 2014** > When our bathroom was determined to have toxic black mold inside the walls, our friends at Bricolage went into action, designing for us, not only a cleaner more efficient space but an updated, beautiful one as well. They listened to our needs and came through with the perfect livable design for our family. Thank You! **★★★★★ — lesrosenberg, Jan. 2014** > As a Construction Manager, I was acquainted with Leslie Wilson of Bricolage when she was a Project Manager at Frank Gehry's office, so when I learned she had started her own firm, and I needed some remodeling done on my own house, she was the first person I thought of. > Leslie brings big-project experience and know-how to smaller projects. She handled a really difficult remodel for me, with grade-level changes, code issues, etc., without any problems or challenges to her expertise. She also understands materials and construction, so she is able to keep costs to within a project budget without ruining the design. > I have since hired her for some of my Construction Management projects, and she always does a fantastic job. She is my go-to architect. **★★★★★ — j140rey, April 2013** > Leslie and her team where smart, conscientious and thorough in every aspect of our bathroom design and renovation. From the design comps and selection of materials / fixtures / cabinetry the vender recommendations all aspects were handled cleanly and professionally. No surprises only raves for this company. Two thumbs up! **★★★★★ — Brett Conrad, April 2013** > Leslie is very creative and we really got the best result taking a bland home and turning into a real eye-popper that fits our style and design aesthetic. ## Selected projects - [Gayley & Lindbrook](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/gayley-and-lindbrook-pj-vj~6099924) - Location: Los Angeles, CA - Photos: 21 - [Cedar Street Guest House and Garage Office](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cedar-street-guest-house-and-garage-office-pj-vj~2779948) - Location: Santa Monica, CA - Photos: 12 - [Pacific Avenue Kitchen Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pacific-avenue-kitchen-renovation-pj-vj~2682710) - Location: Santa Monica, CA - Photos: 8 - Description: We opened up the existing kitchen, pantry and the den to make an open plan kitchen and dining room that was functional for a family with young children as well as beautifully reflect their style. - [Home Office Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/home-office-renovation-pj-vj~2686983) - Location: Los Angeles, CA - Photos: 6 - [June Court](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/june-court-pj-vj~1965982) - Location: Los Angeles, CA - Photos: 11 - [Monte Mar Drive Family Room Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/monte-mar-drive-family-room-renovation-pj-vj~1560357) - Location: Los Angeles, CA - Photos: 6 - [17th Street Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/17th-street-residence-pj-vj~419862) - Location: Santa Monica, CA - Photos: 10 - [Cedar Street Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cedar-street-residence-pj-vj~98795) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 9 - [The Navy Street Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-navy-street-residence-pj-vj~188269) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - [Pacific Avenue Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pacific-avenue-residence-pj-vj~233442) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 11 - [Euclid Street Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/euclid-street-residence-pj-vj~98791) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 [See all 11 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/architects-and-building-designers/bricolage-pfvwus-pf~1350584743) ## Ideabooks - [Stairway](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/108833652/list/stairway) — 1 idea [See all 1 ideabook](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/bricolage-design) ## Community Q&A **Q: Nice little office....** *(in Photo Questions)* Please tell me the dimensions of this room? Thanks, Karen A: the room is 10'-8" x 17'-3" **Q: What is the vanity top made of?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: The counter top is quartz from Caesar Stone - 1141 Pure Whitehttp://www.caesarstoneus.com/en/The-Catalog/Pages/1141%20Pure%20White.aspx **Q: I love this accent wall, but I am wondering if it will be a nightmare** *(in Photo Questions)* A: It really isn't. I used the same tile as a backsplash in a kitchen - behind a cooktop where the grease can get trapped. We had no problems. It can be wiped down easily. Nothing gets 'trapped' in the grooves - they are actually quite subtle. **Q: Interior** *(in Photo Questions)* Can you post interior pics of this house...interested to see how inside looks A: I did not work on the interior of the house, so I should not take the credit :). The style is pretty in sync with the exterior. **Q: love the sinks** *(in Photo Questions)* Where are the sinks from? What type of counter is that? Very nice! A: The counter top is quartz from Caesar Stone - 1141 Pure Whitehttp://www.caesarstoneus.com/en/The-Catalog/Pages/1141%20Pure%20White.aspx **Q: What type of wood is used for the siding? What color is the stucco?** *(in Photo Questions)* Thank you. A: Wood is oiled Ipe, and the stucco is custom color 'to match architectural concrete'. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
