Furniture designer Cisco Pinedo was featured in Sunset magazine in "Soulful Simplicity: a room-by-room guide". I love what he has to say about creating a home with heart (isn't that bathroom devine?!)Define your special space. Maybe it’s a reading nook, a cozy bedroom, or a spa-like bathroom. For Cisco, it’s a spacious kitchen/family room where large groups can gather. “We like everything open,” he says.
Take your time. Don’t rush to deck out your home just for the sake of doing so. Creating a look that shows your personality and style takes time: It took the Pinedos 10 years to assemble the few accessories they display, and they’re glad it did because everything they’ve set out has meaning.
Embrace emptiness. Cisco has a prominent wall in the master bedroom that’s blank. “I’d love to have a beautiful piece of art there when I find it,” he says. In the meantime, he’s happy to leave the spot vacant.
