OCEAN VIEW OUTDOOR LIVING ROOM IN THE MDR!

This is TE’s lovely ocean view deck…

So to make a short story long…a few weeks ago TE and I started sprucing up his outdoor decks.  He has a gorgeous ocean view in Marina del Rey (the MDR as I call it) – you can see the water view from not just one deck but two!  He is literally about a 1/2 a block from the beach. The sprucing was in preparation for some of his family members and guests coming into town.

I took these photos this morning.  We were up until 1am last night putting up the mirrored wall hangings and then enjoying a glass of wine and some music on the deck.  This morning while taking these photos I looked quite like a clown:  bleary eyed (with some residual mascara or eyeliner around my eyes), a night gown on, a hoodie over it, leggings, Converse sneakers and hair sticking straight up…but I didn’t care if any of TE’s neighbors saw me…I was doing my own private photo shoot!

Anyhooo…it was gorgeous up there on this ocean view deck this morning…with the sun rising and waves crashing in the distance.

This project is done…next design project…a little surprise for sis DS at her house and then my house needs to be addressed as far as decor!

To see the before photo of TE’s deck…follow me @cococozy on either COCOCOZY Instagram or COCOCOZY Twitter.  I’ll post a few photos in a bit…so follow along so you get the update in your feed.

Happy Friday!

    Without the pillows this whole thing would have been just another collection of furniture not the inviting personalized space you made it.

    I was expecting to see pic of the awning splayed out showing off a contrasting yet complementing CocoCozy textile to finish off the redesign!

Ever wondered what it feels like to have the Eiffe Ever wondered what it feels like to have the Eiffel Tower as your view? These 7 Paris spaces answer that — some hotel suites, some private residences, and each one framing it completely differently. 🫶
A gilded suite where it peers through silk drapes. A terrace set for breakfast with the Tower straight ahead. Contemporary apartments where open French doors bring it almost into the room. Classic Haussmannian grandeur on one end, sculptural modern interiors on the other; same iconic backdrop, seven entirely different ways to live with it.
→ Save this for your next Paris trip or renovation inspo.

This Haussmannian apartment sits directly facing N This Haussmannian apartment sits directly facing Notre-Dame on the Left Bank, and @double_g_interior_design designed the interior to match that setting without competing with it. ✨
The approach was deliberate restraint: restored cornices kept intact, stained oak floors, limestone tones, a mix of vintage furniture and contemporary silhouettes. Every choice earning its place. The light does the rest. Bouncing off mirrors, moving through the neutral walls across the day. 🔅
→ Save this if you’re working with a Haussmannian space and want to let the architecture lead.

This six-floor Paris mansion sat untouched for ove This six-floor Paris mansion sat untouched for over 15 years. @hugotoro_ took it on and designed every single thing inside it himself, from the custom furniture down to the napkin rings and staff uniforms.
That level of control is what makes the result so specific. Rich materials, sculptural forms, cinematic lighting but nothing feels decorative for its own sake. Every detail was considered as part of one complete vision, and you feel it in every room. ✨

Natural light is the one thing every room has in c Natural light is the one thing every room has in common here, but the window shape, wall material, and time of day make each one feel like an entirely different experience. ☀️
It’s a reminder that light isn’t just a condition in a room. It’s a design decision.
→ Save this if you’re thinking about how light works in your own space.

I visited a new friend Amy, founder of Keur-Amy LaI visited a new friend Amy, founder of Keur-Amy Langseth @keuramylangseth at her chic Paris studio in the Marais and left completely obsessed! Every bag she makes is intentional, considered, and honestly unliIke anything I’ve seen. The kind of craftsmanship you don’t stumble upon easily.
She’s still under the radar. For now. 😌
