SEE THIS MODERN SPANISH STYLE DREAM HOME!

Custom designed iron stair rail and banister line the grand staircase in the entry hall of a new Los Angeles, California home. (above)This is a beautiful 4100 square foot Spanish style home newly built in the heart of Los Angeles – keenly designed by The Sunset Team’s La Kaza Design.

The Sunset Team is a full service real estate company with agents who help home owners buy and sell properties (a division of Keller Williams)…sounds simple and normal…but for the Sunset Team selling and buying isn’t enough.

As an added service, this one-stop shop, led by Roberto Seixas, also can help clients remodel, restore, build, design and decorate homes (P.S. the company’s website asks the provocative question “flip or fix?”…it is a substantive question I often ask myself as my tiny Hollywood Hills home seems to get smaller and smaller…as far as significance, this question could rival the famed “to be or not to be?” query! Kidding of course. Maybe. No kidding. Right?). This creative decor and design division is called La Kaza Design.

This multi-million dollar two story 4 bedroom/5 bath home features many design details which give it chic character. With a gourmet chef’s kitchen, modern bathrooms, recessed lighting and more, the house boasts so many amenities which make it the ultimate in California living. Did I mention there is a pool too?!?

That’s why I chose this La Kaza design for a house tour in today’s SEE THIS HOUSE.

The living room features custom designed beams which decorate the ceiling in a very symmetrical grid pattern (above)

The devil is in the amazing details in this home…particularly stand out is the wood and iron trim throughout.

Johanna Hiort, Director of Marketing & PR for The Sunset Team, describes how Roberto Seixas artfully designed all of the banisters, stair railings and beam work himself:

“The beam work was Roberto¹s decision as an architectural feature to blend traditional Spanish architecture and contemporary interiors. Some of the exposed beams are structural beams that he left exposed and some were added for design purposes to keep the look consistent throughout.
Roberto designed the stair railings and banisters. He drew out a clean yetdecorative pattern that he liked and one of his crew members produced them.”

A simple white sofa with two large comfy white armchairs provide stylish and usable seating. (above)The color scheme throughout the house is primarily white (wall paint color, major furniture pieces etc.) with dark chocolate brown as the secondary color (beams, railings, floors, cabinetry, door casings, door and window trim). Lastly, greys, polished silver/chrome, clear, tan and black accessories and accents are added to complete the design and decor. Neutral colors that create a suprisingly lively scene.

The large kitchen features white marble counters (with grey veins), dark stained wood cabinets, high end stainless steel appliances, simple but stylish pendant lighting and dark wood floors. Simple, elegant, classic, modern and most importantly extremely inviting.

A huge kitchen island provides a bar area for eating/dining and lots of additional counter top space for food preparation. The gas cook top is also on the island allowing chefs to talk to their guests while cooking.

The master bedroom features double french doors which open onto a large balcony. A moroccan patterned rug and a large wood block four poster bed add the perfect amount of visual interest to the room.

This is one of my favorite rooms in the house. It is serene and tasteful…a wonderful place of rest. An upholstered platform white bed is flanked by two simple glass and metal night stands. A Philippe Starck designed Louis Ghost chair (available at DWR) provides invisible seating for the clean lines of a metal desk – a perfect place for writing letters, thank you notes and gathering thoughts.

Thank you Roberto and Johanna for allowing me to feature La Kaza Design’s work on Cococozy.

For readers, please stay tuned for some AMAZING remodel before and afters from La Kaza!

Behind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOBehind-the-scenes: Fun work trip to visit the COCOCOZY bedding collection at the Welspun showroom in New York. Met with some buyers, had a fun time with the Welspun team, then capped off the weekend with a visit with friends. It is a long process to get bedding in stores across the country...showing the collections at textiles market is one of the first steps!
If you're interested in learning how I have gotten @cococozy products into stores around the country over the years including in major retailers...follow along...just one entrepreneur's journey. :)

Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celeb Today is my birthday but...I don’t want to celebrate...I want to help.
I want to make a meaningful impact in our greater Los Angeles community suffering from the fires. I invite you to join me in transforming birthday wishes into support for one local organization on the ground in Pasadena/Altadena.
I have made a contribution today already to the LA Fire Relief Fund created by @victorybiblechurch in Pasadena. They are actively assisting families in need in both Pasadena and Altadena who have been affected by the devastating Eaton Fire.
Although I don't have a personal connection to Pastor DeCuir or the church, I was searching for an organization that is helping in the Altadena area. A well respected civil rights attorney I follow @leemerrittesq is on the ground helping the church members and community members with legal services in the wake of the fires. I hope by contributing to their efforts, we can extend a helping hand to those facing significant challenges during this difficult time
To donate, please visit their website at https://vbcpasadena.org/ (link in bio as well). Every contribution, no matter the size, brings hope and relief to those who need it most. Tell them you heard about them from me.
Your generosity to the Los Angeles community is the best birthday gift I could ask for.

Happy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this freshHappy New Year! 🎉✨ As we step into this fresh chapter, I’m reminded of the beauty of starting anew and I like recommitting to goals at the top of the year. Nothing set in stone but just an overall vision of what I'd like to do and who I would hope to help along the way.
This year, my mantra is: **dream big, act boldly, treasure the small joys, continue to lead with kindness and to have as much empathy as possible for others **. Just a few things...😂
I’m also deeply committed to helping people who follow along to achieve their dreams. I'll be curating captivating interior design inspiration with COCOCOZY that will hopefully give you ideas and dreams for your own space. I will also be empowering you to realize the value of your influence with Chirpyest by earning cash back for sharing and shopping. I hope to be open about the journey of the COCOCOZY product line. I want to share real time behind the scenes how the line is being built and how we are growing Chirpyest; both examples of the not so linear journey of building businesses from the ground up. I hope these stories spark you to push your own boundaries and shake out of your comfort zones.
Lastly, in 2025, I’m committed to surrounding myself with people who have a positive vibe about them while striving to be that same light for others. Luckily, I have a great start on this with an amazing family and fantastic group of friends - a fantastic support network.
My wish for you in 2025: May this year bring you clarity, courage, and the confidence to pursue all that makes you happy.
What’s one thing you’re committing to in 2025? Let’s inspire each other in the comments! 💬❤️
Let's get to this...am ready 2025!
