Kern & Co. — Local services in Solana Beach

I recently visited my sister in San Diego and was treated to walk near Solana Beach. As we wandered our way back towards the farmer’s market and the Cedros design district, I unexpectedly came upon a fantastic interior design store called Kern and Co. Being from an expat family and currently living in Dubai, I love to look at and compare the current housing décor and local interpretations. Kern and Co. is a true gem that had me wishing for unlimited luggage allowances! The store is full of creative and innovative design styles, furniture and accessories that would work well in homes from across the globe. If you are an animal lover, this store is a gold mine of clever, classy accents that will add a unique touch to any room. From intricate crab footed center pieces to animal infused lighting, you can create an upscale menagerie that adds a unique flare in any room. The accessories and furniture available at Kern and Co. can be easily infused with many design styles and would work well with everything from my love of antique furniture pieces to Scandinavian style...

We have been working with Susan Spath and Genny Chale of Kern & Company for over 15 years. They have helped us remodel two of our homes here in Del Mar , as well as, our home in Houston. Susan was instrumental in our recent design/build of our new home in Del Mar. She reviewed our plans to insure that every detail, from electrical,lighting, views, flow and furniture placement was taken into consideration by our architect. Susan provided us with detailed drawings of all our cabinets, space interiors and design, so we could visualize how everything would turn out. Susan even went so far as to share her professional contacts, so we knew we had a team of elite professionals helping us every step of the way. Even after the project is done, they are willing to offer their clients any assistance required. We always feel that by using Kern & Company the project was completed efficiently without cutting any corners and making unnecessary mistakes. Every member of their team treats the project as their own home, and gives us the confidence to use them time...

Kern & Co. is fantastic! The selection is not only plentiful, but is of great quality. They truly go above & beyond in helping you with design, procuring furniture as well as thinking of all the details. In fact, there are things that I wouldn’t have selected on my own that I am so pleased I did. They sort of pushed me a little outside of my comfort zone, which is a sure sign of a great designer, and I have some incredible pieces in my home to show for it. Everybody there is really kind & welcoming and I’m so grateful for their help. Starting with Viviani who does magic on her drawings allowing my vision to open up on paper, to Susan who is incredibly talented at “seeing” spaces that aren’t even built yet. Cinthia, Chloe & Maddy are the shakers & movers that make miracles happen in so far as timing and the little things you didn’t even think you’d need. The ladies at Kern & Co., both individually and collectively played a huge part in making our house a home for our family to enjoy for many years to come and we are...
