We approached this new build as a seamless, full-service collaboration between architecture and interiors. Every decision—structural, spatial, and aesthetic—was shaped with intention, not to mention collaboration, since our contractor was also our client. Our contractor said, “make the rooflines simple and direct the water away.” His wife said, “I like color.” Check, and check. The bold exterior lines of the home both contrast with and recede into the woods around it, and the interiors are layered with cheerful hues, custom details, and playful patterns. Each room carries its own moment of cheer, while the overall palette ties together into a cohesive, uplifting whole, not unlike its namesake rainbow.

Old houses don't have to be traditional. This beautiful two story home springs to life with a combination of bright, cheerful colors.

The breakfast nook located in a sunny bay makes for a cheerful place to gather for an informal meal or activity. Open shelving provides space for books, and the gas fireplace is perfect for taking the edge off on chilly mornings. Steven Connelly

Functional kitchen with pizzazz! Fireclay Tile 'Wave" in Neptune Blue adds a cheerful pop of color in the backsplash. Mixing caramelized bamboo upper cabinets with matte white base cabinets ties in nicely with the wood floors.

We kept the table setting light and cheerful to match the style of the dining table and chairs.

Hive LA Home toured this pool house in San Marino when it was being used as guest quarters, home office, and storage area. One bed, two tiny bathrooms (huh?) and a teeny tiny kitchenette, the space was not functional. Marrying the clients’ east coast ‘Hamptons’ aesthetic with the rich California architectural history of the neighborhood Hive LA Home made a space for both working and entertaining. New custom built-ins make plenty of office storage. A new kitchenette for hosting gatherings. Hive LA Home hid a pull out in the custom sofa that lets this little pool house sleep 6! Family-friendly materials throughout keep it from being too fussy: you can still saddle up to the bar in your wet towel for a margarita. Cheers!
