California Coastal was born on the glistening beaches of Southern California.

Founder Kristin Swanson grew up in Los Angeles, and has always been obsessed with the beach and surf culture and lifestyle.

Soon after working on a cabin revamp with her Mom in Big Bear, her passion for design ignited. The rental became a quick success, and soon after more projects ensued. Her goal is to transform a space, whether it’s just a room or a whole house, to make anyone who walks in it feel inspired and ignite joy.
