L.A. Home Renovation Shows Right Way to Brighten Your Space

With a baby on the way, Heather Taylor renovated her Los Angeles home to balance work and play.

Bright and energetic shades. A home that’s built for a baby. Take a peek.

With the baby’s due date looming, Heather Taylor, founder of Heather Taylor Home, and her husband Taylor De Cordoba had all the motivation necessary to begin a much-needed renovation, which included expanding and redesigning their kitchen and adding on a nursery.

The breakfast nook’s walnut benches are dressed with striped pillows of Taylor’s design.

A must-see breakfast nook makeover!

Through a whimsical mix of worldly textiles and bright colors—including Moroccan floor tiles in the kitchen and dashes of sunshine yellow and Yves Klein blue throughout—Taylor and de Cordoba managed to evoke the spirit of an exotic resort.

Bright-white walls serve as a clean backdrop for Taylor’s textile collections and inspirational images.

Bright pieces, which have deep meaning to the couple, invigorate the space.
