The Awards were great, over 50,000 unique votes were cast. So many designers showed up for the event. I was up for the Best Living Space in North and South America. I was honored to meet leaders in the industry from all over the globe!
And I won!
Best Living Space in North and South America by Myca Loar, Creator of Shiny Bones Design Firm.
There are so many marks here. Makes me think of my own marks….
Traveling to London for The International Design and Architecture Awards.
Our Flat is close to Columbia Road in Shoreditch, so much inspiration here. The juxtaposition of the flowers and the gritty street art is all encompassing.
My latest interview with Design et al

I am so very proud of the Laguna Beach home, it was a long process but worth every minute.
I enlisted my sister, an incredibly talented writer, to bring the project alive through words.
“Myca is taken by the movement of the ocean, the sensory pallet of the beach. Organic textures, reflective surfaces, and sleek lines inform the interior design of this three story home built on a precipice. The home transparently blends jagged and smooth lines drawn from the coast, and is highlighted with beguiling and sensible innovations for modern living. The open and airy nature of the estate, informed by the sublime nature of the coast, is set off by globally sourced lighting that is the jewelry of the home, in addition to the pneumatic elevator. On each of the three stories, the coastal side is lined with vanishing glass doors, manifesting as hanging panes that erase the traditional boundary between home and the elements. The contemporary furniture caresses the decor, offering comfort at the cost of minimal visual intrusion. Aloof tones and deep textures are evocative of the sand and cliffs, welcoming the inhabitants into an intimate relationship with nature. The natural finishes include marble, onyx, recycled glass, finished and unfinished concrete, polished stone, rustic wood, tile, walnut, steel, pine. Comfort and softness are not compromised, and creativity is personified in this opulent, progressive home in Laguna Beach, an artist community that values the preservation of nature as much as the enjoyment of it. ”
