Welcome to a New Year! We at Pepe Calderin Design love the chance to start fresh and embrace new beginnings so we decided that now is as good a time as any to start connecting with you again through our blog. In the Chinese Zodiac, this is the year of the Tiger which means its a time for bravery, passion, and organization, a few things we do pretty well over here. We have lots of great ideas and stories to share with you, but before we dive into ton art and design tips, we wanted to share what we’ve been up to since we last posted in this little blog tab.

We know the past two years have been especially difficult for so many. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, many have lost loved ones. Some are still struggling with the long effects of the disease. As a consequence of the pandemic changes, we’ve also seen business closures, skyrocketing rents, and wage stagnation. Our hearts go out to all of you and the frustrations of navigating this difficult time. We hope to remain a bright light in our community now and always.

PROJECTS

We’ve completed some fantastic projects since 2014 if we do say so ourselves. From residences to condominiums to one particularly fun commercial project, we’ve pushed our creativity to new heights. We’ve added unique wallpaper, “living” walls, custom-made palm trees, and so much more to these beautiful spaces. You can see them in our portfolio, or click on the individual links below.
