A colorful, high-spirited California cottage in the midst of wine country? We could move right in, don’t cha think?

Described as a “kick off your shoes and take off your socks” kind of home, color and comfort run rampant. Interior designer, Stephen Shubel, provides details and resources for this home specifically designed to host both indoor and outdoor parties.

Furnishings and accessories range from online shops to catalog pieces like a chesterfield sofa from Restoration Hardware and purple throw pillows from ZGallerie. Semi-custom details were introduced by reupholstering the back and seat cushions in lime green and beige stripe to coordinate with the existing linen in the French chair pictured above.

Take some time and study the home to see if you can also spot more family-friendly and budget-friendly design ideas to borrow. Above the two kitchen chairs could easily be duplicated by painting old dining chairs a high gloss white and recovering the seats with patent leather. Caliente!
