SoCo Collection Costa Mesa

Over the weekend I made a visit to the SoCo Collection Design Center in Costa Mesa, CA.  It’s a little jem of a place for interior designers to go to get inspiration for client projects.  The center is open to the public as well and continues to grow with some of the biggest names in the industry including Stark Carpet and Design Within Reach. The Mix is another part of the center with trendy and unique shops of fashion, art and amazing restaurants. Every Saturday they also have a wonderful Farmers Market that is worth the visit.

Inside The OC Mart Mix you will find shops and dining and discover local talent. The interior design is green with a lot of reclaimed wood, metals and unique lighting fixtures.

I love the way the owner of Peinture displays the different chalk paint colors on the wall of chairs. She also offers workshops on painting techniques every month. Be sure to visit their website for more information.
