This week, Elyse and Laurent sit down with new friend and creative colleague Summer Jensen, owner of Hawk & Co, an interior design studio based in Laguna Beach, CA. Born in Hawai'i, Summer Jensen uses her cultural connection to nature as a lens and an outline for each of her projects, approaching the field of design with sustainability at the forefront. Summer's designs are truly bespoke. Each piece in the home, from the baseboards to lighting, sofa to nightstands, are custom built and designed by Summer and her team.

In this interview, Summer breaks down her relationship to creativity, her personal evolution of design and taste, and the importance of buying local, from local craftspeople, for a truly timeless and sustainable home. Sustainability is a living, evolving, and necessary part of interior design, and Summer Jensen is a leading voice in sustainable building and renovation.
