Our process

Design begins here.
Texture. Tone. Weight. Sheen.
Before a space comes to life, we curate the feeling — warm woods, tactile textiles, natural stone, and restrained metals working in harmony.
The palette sets the mood. Everything else follows.

An inspiring shopping day for a #rebuildLA Palisades home. Seeing materials in person, comparing finishes, such as cabinetry, flooring, and hardware.
Our client has the BEST taste in stone; @stoneland.usa has an incredibly curated collection. Excited for the build.

We joined together and founded Nelson Davis in February 2025 with a clear vision: to create homes that are truly bespoke — thoughtful, personal, and timeless.
This past year has been about laying foundations, refining our process, and bringing that vision to life. Some projects are finished. Many more are quietly underway.
To our incredible clients, talented collaborators, and everyone following along — thank you for trusting the process and being part of our beginning.
2026 holds a lot we’re excited to share.
Wishing you a very Happy New Year.

Breaking ground today feels like a true milestone. This shovel represents more than the start of construction — it marks the beginning of healing for a fire-victim family in the Pacific Palisades.
It has been an honor to work alongside families as they rebuild, and we are grateful that permits are approved, proud that the design is in place, and excited that we can finally bring this home back to life.
Here’s to new beginnings, resilience, and creating beauty from loss. 🤍
