Cozy Guest Room Design with Built-in Daybed Nook - La Jolla
A Guest Room Transformed into a Relaxing Retreat
I surprised this family in La Jolla with a cozy alcove created for a teen daughter that visits from Australia. This corner now doubles as a cozy retreat for everyone in the home.
This multi-use retreat was created by placing the daybed in front of the window to optimize on natural light and flanking the daybed with integrated cabinetry in the form of storage solutions creating a library for books, family photos, etc. And I didn't stop there. We also added some adjustable reading lamps and mounted to the bookshelves to add to the cocoon like experience in this corner. And lastly a small mobile laptop table not shown here.
The result - An immersive and calming atmosphere that is now the restorative corner in the home.

The Psychology of Making you Feel Calm
Creating a dreamy space by combining elements that create an alcove promoting a calm feeling and signaling coziness and safety.
A cocooning vibe with cabinetry integration for books and treasured items providing a sophisticated and atmospheric library feel
inviting users of the space to linger and relax.
Warm layered lighting instead of overhead lighting signaling mood, atmosphere and relaxation.
Laura is an absolute pleasure to work with, and she had an amazing understanding of what we were looking for. One of our guest rooms instantly became the favorite room in the house based on her suggestions. She's also great at coming up with options based on your budget. Highly recommend!
