THE RHYTHM OF HOME DECOR



Looking for a fresh approach (not so theme-driven) in home furnishings and interior design services?

Atelier Natalie Umbert in Corona del Mar is your answer. Owner Natalie Umbert opened the retail space/showroom after nearly 10 years interior design experience in New York, Miami and Southern California.

Umbert's flagship location reflects her aesthetic of mixing different elements -- old, new, traditional, modern, complex and stark -- to achieve an exciting sense of rhythm throughout every space.

And just for Greer's OC subscribers Umbert offers 20% off any custom upholstery and 10% off accessories through February. And all initial in-house consultations are complimentary.

"I do a lot of traveling, which definitely influences the mix," Umbert says. "At the same time, I really like to get into my clients' heads and truly give them something timeless that reflects their individual lifestyles."

Choose from upholstery and case good pieces that are either original Atelier designs or vintage. Also, find Kartell contemporary furniture, original paintings by Bradford Stewart, tabletop by Heath Ceramics, incredible candles by House & Home, Assouline and Taschen books, throw pillows and accessories by Thomas Paul, and more.

Open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. By appointment Saturday. 2620 E. Coast Highway in Corona del Mar. 949.718.9100.
