Malibu Home Renovation - Caesarstone & More

September 4, 2015
  • Share
caesarstone bathroom sink cococozy
Our custom floating integrated sink made of Caesarstone Frosty Carrina! Finally it is in!

Happy Friday!  With the long holiday upon us…I can’t wait to relax with my guy TE and family!  I just got back from Chicago late last night.  Was there on business for 3 days.  Loved Chicago.  Check out my Instagram feed to see a little glimpse of my trip there but I am so happy to be home.

Got home and there are still so many little things to do here at our house…our Malibu home renovation is nearly complete but all of the finishing touches seem to be taking forever.  Everything looks finished but unfinished…missing light switch plates, missing stair railing, need barn doors, light fixtures, shelving, attic doors built out, laundry room shelves, floor vent covers and paint, paint and paint.  I didn’t mention all of the  landscaping that needs to be done and furniture that needs to be sourced and acquired (using the word acquired lately as a euphemism for the words “buy”, “spend”, and “purchase”…all words that stress my guy TE out understandably).

Anyhooo…as I sit here in the house with my Friday off…and I have a few workmen and the electricians here…I wanted to give you a little update.

One big thing is that we finally got our quartz Caesarstone bathroom integrated sink installed and the mirror.  See above.  We used a Caesarstone called Frosty Carrina in the master bath.  I love it.  Conventional design wisdom is to not mix quartz and marble surfaces in the same room.  Well we threw conventional wisdom out of the door because it made no sense.  We are so happy with our decision.  We have a beautiful durable bathroom sink top made of Caesarstone paired with a gorgeous marble basketweave floor and a blue marble moonstone tile wall and it all works together perfectly.  Love!

Anyhooo…here are some glimpse of what is going on in our little world of renovating a house on a hill in Malibu.

We custom designed our Caesarstone quartz sinks to be extra deep!

Now onto our custom design sofa…these are some sofa leg finishes and styles we looked at. We are building a 12’x10′ sectional for our main living room!

Custom cabinets are being built around the vent over the stove in our kitchen. Notice the Caesarstone backsplash. Still waiting for our kitchen island to be finished!

 

Malibu Home renovation vent covers
Vent covers we are using throughout the house…some are my custom designed covers that we will use on the master bedroom ceilings. Others are stock cast metal designs for the public rooms. Love these

 

Cococozy Embroidered Pillows
COCOCOZY embroidered pillows in the master bedroom! So much fun using my textile designs in the house.
Moonstone Basketweave Mosaic Tile
This is my favorite tile in the house. Moonstone, basalt, white marble basketweave mosaic used in the downstairs bathroom.
Malibu home renovation living room
This is view down hall off the living room. Stairs still need treads and we need a railing for the downstairs.

 

Hope you enjoyed these little glimpses of our renovation project. This weekend, TE and I are running some errands and then relaxing with family and friends.  Should be a good time.

Hope you have a great Labor Day weekend!

Happy Friday!

    Georgeous house and selections, Coco! Can’t wait to see the finishes 🙂
    Totally agree with you on mixing the marbles and Caesarstone. I’d do it too. What is your source for the vent covers (customized and stock)? I love them!
    Thanks,

    I absolutely love the bathroom. All the colors and product choices are perfect!! If we hadn’t just redone our bathroom this is exactly what we would have wanted. Amazing!!!

A great bathroom isn’t just functional, it’s the one room in the house that’s entirely yours. The stone you choose, the way light hits the fixtures, the tub you actually want to sit in. These are the ones that get it exactly right.
Save this for your next bathroom renovation inspo and follow for more. 🖤

Happy Labor Day! 🇺🇸 Here’s a little throwback toHappy Labor Day! 🇺🇸
Here’s a little throwback to a Labor Day dinner party I hosted a few years ago, and honestly, we’d still do it this way. 🥂✨
Hosting this Labor Day? Keep it simple:
• Set the table with one statement detail + neutral basics
• Choose a menu you can prep ahead so you’re not cooking all night
• Add candles or flowers to make the table feel special
• Serve everything family-style for a more relaxed feel
• Don’t overthink it. The best dinners are the ones where everyone lingers a little longer 🤍
Save this for your next dinner party and send it to someone who’s hosting! 🍽️

The bouclé sofa isn’t a trend, it’s a commitment. The bouclé sofa isn’t a trend, it’s a commitment. Soft, sculptural, and impossible to walk past without wanting to sit down. The rooms that get it right pair it with something unexpected: a dramatic mural, an antique screen, a city skyline, a hand-laid mosaic floor.

A well-designed bunk room isn’t just for kids. It’s about making every guest feel like they got the best bed in the house. Built-in storage, thoughtful lighting, and bedding that actually makes you want to climb up top.

This Toronto home just redefined “warm modern.” 🤎 This Toronto home just redefined “warm modern.” 🤎
Designer Ashley Montgomery layered reclaimed wood beams, brass hardware, and deep walnut millwork against soft plaster walls, and somehow every single room still feels calm. The olive built-ins in the living room, the arched oak doors, that brass shower enclosure in the primary bath... this is what happens when someone actually commits to a palette.
