OLA VISTA SPANISH REVIVAL |
SAN CLEMENTE, CALIFORNIA

SCOPE: New Build | Interior Design + Furniture

ARCHITECT + CONTRACTOR: Hunter Construction + Valle Design

PHOTOGRAPHER: George Barberis

STYLIST: NIK NIK

In the quaint seaside town of San Clemente, Ola Vista stands as a vibrant tribute to Spanish Revival architecture and the power of a long-term partnership. Having designed four homes for this client over the last twelve years, we were able to push the boundaries of 'coastal living' into something far more soulful and storied. This new build balances the heritage of California’s romantic past with a fearless, modern approach to color and materiality. From the sculptural curves of the architecture to the highly curated interiors, it is a home built on a foundation of trust, designed to be the ultimate sanctuary for a client who has become a fundamental part of the Bright Designlab story.
