Tropical Paradise

Award-winning architect Kevin Farrell gave Lori Gentile free rein with the interior architecture for this custom home on Crest in Encinitas. Every detail was selected and integrated to execute a relaxed tropical feeling. Huge basket lights and an old Acacia Root table set the tone upon entering the large spacious entry along with grasscloth wallpaper in the ceiling soffits. Lori’s favorite room is the main powder bath with individual hand-made leaf tiles and Macassar Ebony cabinets she book-matched both directions to imitate palm fronds.
