This La Jolla Cottage Skips the Coastal Clichés (opens in new tab)

This home is located in Bird Rock, a small seaside neighborhood in La Jolla, CA. “This area is also the home to our studio, so we might be a little biased, but it’s one of our favorite places to be,” says Erika Gervin, founder and principal designer at South Harlow Interiors. “We absolutely love the charm and close-knit vibe of this community, and it doesn’t hurt that it’s situated steps from the ocean. It’s coastal, laid back, casual, and just how we like it!”
