(Image credits: Bethany Nauert) My friend Matt gave me the best compliment, though. It’s my boyfriend and I’s pride and joy. When I asked her what the most significant thing in her home was, she said it was her grandmother’s marble chest: «Beyond it being beautiful, it reminds me of her everyday.» Designing a space certainly comes easy to Jaclyn, and she really knows how to create something that is expressive and genuine. Favorite Element: My coffee table. I had always had larger bedrooms previously so it allowed for more creativity in terms of layout and design. I wouldn’t say I have a green thumb per se, but I am getting there! Best Advice: Don’t overthink it. This outdoor space is perfect to be enjoy on any given evening in Los Angeles, and her home is roomy and full of personality. • Are you a designer/architect/decorator interested in sharing a residential project with Apartment Therapy readers? She believes that the most essential part of designing a home is «warmth, creating that feeling of comfort as soon as you walk in.»
Los Angeles and its lifestyle play a huge factor into her personal design aesthetic. I try to elegantly combine modern and vintage vibes. «I particularly love the ‘desert’ vibe of Los Angeles, lots of earth tones mixed with pops of greens and pinks, succulents and Native American-inspired prints and goods.

Jaclyn’s home is warm, fun and welcoming from the moment you step through the gate into the outdoor dining space. He said, «I think when girls are 8 years old, this is the house they dream about having when they grow up.» I’ll take it. It can be really beautiful. • Interested in sharing your home with Apartment Therapy? I buy things I like and find the right place for them after (not all pieces, but some of my favorites).

I think rooms—and homes for that matter—grow with you over time and can shift and change and that’s okay. Open Slideshow
