Jesse DeSanti, CID, Creative Director/Owner

JD-82.jpg

With nearly two decades in creative design, Jesse has long cultivated and nurtured her passion for architecture and interiors. The Southern California native began her career as an apprentice to Jessica Helgerson in Santa Barbara at just 17-years-old, before earning a BFA in Interior Architecture from Long Beach State University. Her comprehensive portfolio showcases her work with some of the world’s most renowned architects, artists and designers, including Cliff May, Richard Neutra, John Lautner, and William Werster.

Jesse has a soft spot for historic buildings—currently calling an historically registered Ole Hanson home—and is committed to respecting the integrity of each property in her care.  Raised the daughter of an architect/builder/artist, Jesse is devoted to finding a creative balance to both honor the design of a structure, as well as developing a space that meets the needs and wishes of each client. Her services extend, to hear her tell, “from ground up structural design to selecting throw pillows.” As a designer, she’s devoted to seeing the process through to completion alongside her clients.

“A person’s home is a reflection of themselves, and it’s my responsibility to guide clients into creating a space that works for their needs and represents them as a person or as a family. But oftentimes a house has a history before each new owner and that should be considered. Understanding the intent of the architecture allows me to create a space that is a livable collaboration between past and present. My hope is to find a harmonious balance that satisfies all those components while moving the client and their home into the next chapter.”

Jesse is a student of history and an avid traveler; she finds inspiration and influence in both new and old world ideologies and cultures, while understanding the need for practicality and function. She currently lives in San Clemente with her husband Mike and their son Enzo, as well as her friend and officemate Coco (a French Bulldog).

Jade Hererra, Account Manager
