After assisting this Summerville couple with the furnishings and accessories in their main living spaces, Iola Modern’s owner and principal designer Steven Ortego worked alongside his trusted supply partners to collaborate on the redesign of this once unfinished and unused space into a colorful and welcoming casita.

The homeowners envisioned the casita as a gathering place for family and friends, while also functioning as a guest suite with everything anyone might need to feel welcome and comfortable. “We incorporated a kitchenette, handicap accessible full bathroom, and a laundry room to service the open concept casita,” Steven says.

Specializing in daring designs that suit the everyday, Iola Modern provided an array of products from the West Montague showroom to complete the remodel with contemporary comfort and durability. Core elements like light fixtures, furniture, and accessories were hand-selected by Steven after having developed a close-knit relationship with the homeowners on previous projects. Because of his dedication to understanding his client’s wants and needs, he was able to select the items he knew this couple would adore.

The design is further emphasized through the use of striking color and material combinations that speak to the upbeat and vibrant scheme. Kelly Wearstler District Wallcoverings feel casually decadent with an elevated sense of artistry and uniqueness of scale. With a nod to Cubism, this hand-painted print features oversized geometric shapes in a rhythm of color and form. Sourced from Amsterdam, the wallcovering in the newly designed bathroom is one of the homeowner’s favorite elements.
