Our Backyard Cottage exhibit features new ideas for decorating and landscaping a guest house. Inside, you’ll find stylish ways to get a lot of impact and use out of a small space. Outside, the landscaping will show you how to blend a backyard structure with your home’s style.

New Avenue is a comprehensive resource for homeowners who want to remodel their home or build a new one. The New Avenue platform provides anyone a private project page that improves communication across their entire team, standardizes proposals, and then optimizes the design and construction process.
Interior Design by Orlando Soria, HomepolishInspiration:For the showcase cottage at Sunset Celebration Weekend, I wanted to do something that referenced California, our landscape, and our color palette. Starting from the red staircase, I created a warm space invoking the sunshine that makes our region such a lovely place to live. Because it’s a guest house, I wanted to make it something you’d be proud to put your family in, so I added some glamour and excitement with metallics, wallpaper, and inventive tile patterns.
Inspiration: Low water, high style We invite you to immerse yourself in this calming retreat. Drawing inspiration from Zen gardens and our dry Mediterranean climate, you’ll find hidden seating nooks, meditative walkways, and lush, unthirsty plantings.
