Chameleon Design Featured Project: Pavilion Park Information Center // Irvine

Pavilion Park in Irvine is the first community at The Great Park Neighborhoods for Five Point Communities. Chameleon Design was brought on board to design the Information Center, which they wanted to have a warm feel with elements of folly.

In the building itself, we created a “beacon wall” of TV screens, which all run a loop of the community amenities, to be the star of the room.  We flanked the reclaimed wall of paneling with large framed succulent walls and kid friendly rockers surround the tree in the center. Custom chairs that were designed to remind you of gardeners gloves, natural branches, crystals, coral, and crystals also help to bring the outdoors in.

Outside we used a mixture of wood and metal furniture. Adirondack chairs made of wine barrels, vintage wood chairs, cream metal gliders and wood stools were sprinkled along the low wall near the outdoor fireplace to allow for places to sit and talk. Near the basketball courts we commissioned custom tables made of slabs of wood and cool metal legs and outside the green house we placed two long gathering tables with galvanized stools. The pool deck also has these elements along with wide chaise lounges made of vintage beam wood. Wind chimes, stone owls, metal balls created with wine barrel strapping and stone rain chains hang here and there for natural folly.

Chameleon Design Featured Project // Bethlehem Tower, Santa Rosa

Chameleon Design recently installed a beautiful Senior’s Apartment building in Santa Rosa, CA. Our client purchased the building and did a complete remodel of all of the units and common areas. The style is California Ranch with a pale aqua and sage green color palette. Rustic pine accent pieces warm up the various rooms and the floors were done in a laminate with a washed wood look, which not only looks great, but allows the seniors with walkers and wheelchairs to move through the spaces with ease.

When we work on a rehab of an existing affordable seniors apartment building such as this, people often get worried that the new owner is going to raise the rent and they won’t be able to afford to live there anymore, but that is not the case at all. On the first day of our installation of furniture, art and accessories, we overheard a lady in saying to another, “oh my goodness, these new owners must really like us, this is beautiful.” It’s comments like that one that makes our job all that much sweeter!

Chameleon Design Featured Project: Mirador, Plan 5 // San Juan Capistrano

Mirador Rancho San Juan Plan 5 has a contemporary, elegant look. The decor includes modern, dark furniture, clean upholstery styling, large abstract art canvases on the walls and polished accessories with Asian accents. Everything was done with a color palette of chocolate, orange and white, which paired well with the creamy limestone flooring that’s extended throughout the home. The kitchen is one of our favorite rooms, with an island so big you could park a car on it! This model also boasts a home gym and a casista with a living room, bedroom and private bath for guests.  Plan 5 has everything a homeowner could ask for.

Chameleon Design Featured Project: Mirador, Plan 4 // San Juan Capistrano

Plan 4 at Mirador Rancho San Juan has a casual, comfortable style that we feel is very appealing to many California residents. A soft color palette of aqua, pale green and creamy white helped us achieve the soothing, coastal style we were going for. Floors were done in a natural light wood and the wood cabinets in the kitchen are a worn, ivory color which have a nice, beachy feel. To take the look further, we incorporated other beach elements into the accessories and small touches throughout the home.

Chameleon Design Featured Project: Mirador, Plan 3 // San Juan Capistrano

Mirador at Rancho San Juan offers a range of estate-scaled family residences.  Plan 3 is one of four models we recently completed for in this quaint community in San Juan Capistrano. This is a Spanish style plan, very popular in southern California, but with an eclectic twist. For a more modern take on this traditional look, we used color palette of teal, brown and green. The brightly colored fabrics work nicely with the mix of dark and light furniture, the warm look that the hand scraped wood flooring lends and the light-colored walls.

Chameleon Design Featured Project: Mirador, Plan 2 // San Juan Capistrano

We recently finished four models at the beautiful new Mirador at Rancho San Juan. The community offers a range of estate-scaled family residences in the quaint mission town of San Juan Capistrano. Plan 2 has an updated farmhouse feel, with a bright color palette of yellow, taupe and white. The furniture pieces are gray washed pine with modern white accents for a rustic and natural feel. To contrast, accessories and accent pieces are glossy white. One of our favorite features is the flooring. Creamy, stone floors indoors also extend out to the courtyard and patio areas to create an open extended indoor/outdoor living space, ideal for the Southern California lifestyle.

Chameleon Design Featured Project: Cortile, Plan 3 // The Colony, Anaheim

Cortie, Plan 3 is a charming 1100 sq. foot, two bedroom townhouse at the Colony in Anaheim. The plan was designed for a young couple, with a second bedroom for guests. The space is an interior unit with no side windows, so we kept things light and bright with an all-white and neutral color palette and dark wood accents. Floors were done in a washed pine with dark knots and cabinets were all painted white. We love this clean look that’s very popular right now. It’s inspired by Swedish style and feels very fun and fresh.
