Step 2: Create a “design spine” so the whole home feels cohesive
A whole-home remodel should feel like one finished story—not five separate chapters.
A cohesive design spine includes:
- A consistent flooring strategy (or intentional transitions)
- A color and material palette (woods, metals, stones)
- Repeated details (door style, trim profile, hardware finish)
- Lighting that matches the mood from room to room
Encinitas design often leans coastal warm-modern: natural textures, clean lines, warm whites, and calm contrast. You don’t need a “beach theme.” You need a relaxed, durable palette that fits the light.
