Check this hotel in Brussels, Belgium. As a designer myself I have a close relationship with the Pantone color coding system. Pantone has recently made all sorts of product from coffee mugs to flash drives with their signature bright colors. Now if you are in Brussels you can stay at the Pantone Hotel and enjoy the creative design of each room. The hotel offers a splash of color and modern decoration.

On my last day in San Francisco we decided to visit the Museum of Modern Art and Union Square and I was determined to find some good images of San Francisco’s Architecture. I was super happy with the results and San Francisco was an easy town to gather images. I had a great time, met new people and learn new things about this wonderful city. I hope you enjoyed the journey from Orange County to San Francisco and I hope you get do it sometime. Thanks for following my road trip diaries and stay tuned for more fun product and designer updates.

As promised here are some of the pictures taken today. We stayed at Big Sur last night and continued our trek to San Francisco. This time we made a couple of stops for pictures. These were taken in Carmel and Pebble Beach, the weather was perfect and the landscape was really inspiring. This was a good area to see some amazing golf courses, fun surf breaks and breathtaking sightseeing. Enjoy the pictures.

We woke up in Santa Barbara early in the morning to head up to Big Sur, California. We were ready to leave the city skylines and trade them for big red wood trees, stunning ocean views and Elephant Seals relaxing on the sand. I recommend the drive to Big Sur, it is energizing and refreshing. I am leaving Big Sur with a new happier soul. Come check it out sometime. If you don’t believe me check out the latest pictures of our trip. There are so many more where these came from, for now this is all I can fit in here. Do you want to see more? make a comment and I’ll work on posting the rest of them.

If you come to Santa Barbara be prepared to visit some of their great vintage stores. There is on in every corner and you can find anything from furniture to rolls of fabric. Some are gigantic and some are small but filled with amazing pieces. This images are from the playful Punch store on 1223 State Street. Punch is a store that offers stylish fashion, swanky antiques and a fun environment to browse for your next vintage treasure. Stop by in your next trip to Santa Barbara.

And here are some of my favorite pictures from the produce section in the Santa Barbara farmers market on State Street. The color of all these vegetables are super vibrant and noticiably fresh, I love shopping directly with the farmers that work so hard to make their product the best they can be. Not only you are buying locally and supporting the community but you also get a better and fresher product.

This week I will be taking a road trip from Orange County to San Francisco. We left this morning with hopes to make it to Santa Barbara and check the shops around town, but before we made it to Santa Barbara we visited the Channel Islands Surfboards factory in Carpinteria, California. Here are a few of the images taken in their facilities. The place is really amazing, the amount of boards in this place and the manufacturing process is super fun. Every board is made and warehoused in this location. To learn more about Channel Islands Surfoards click here.

Green Cube is a store for those looking for chic ways to be sustainable. This place in in the heart of Downtown Laguna Beach and has everything from furniture to clothing to wall decor. The store feels rustic and very artistic. I liked the way everything was carefully selected and they store is not clutter with product. Everything in the store is an art piece and I’m sure there is a perfect home for each one.
