“Hawk & Co was hired to renovate an entire loft in downtown. They handled all interior design, FF&E, concept and space planning, and had full project management responsibilities. The principal, Summer Jensen, was hands on for every aspect of the project and we couldn't be more pleased with the results. Her understanding of colors, textures and spatial design is amazing, and she really takes the time to create a space that reflects your lifestyle and needs.”
“Summer and her team are a full service firm that cover every detail and not only provide the most incredible final product but their attention to detail beyond the normal scope of a design firm. They saved us hundreds of thousands of dollars by recognizing a major error with our builder early on to avoid a catastrophic disaster that would result in tearing down our new home. I highly recommend Hawk and Co. to anyone looking for a professional and talented design firm.”
“I could not recommend Summer Jensen and the entire team at Hawk & Co more highly. Their level of professionalism, quality, integrity, and taste is truly unsurpassed. From start to finish it was an absolute pleasure working with them, and I am absolutely thrilled with the outcome of my architecture and design project!”

Wire brushed white oak floors and linear ceiling beams bring an added warmth to this three-level abode. Plastered walls conceal back of house spaces as well as appliances for a spacious yet stylistic floor plan with a minimalist feel. Carrara marble antiqued throughout the home offers a timeless, lived-in feel.
We believe the best results come from being involved early, during planning, construction, or even pre-construction. Our ability to collaborate with architects, builders, and contractors for your La Jolla interior design project ensures that every design detail is integrated seamlessly and functionally from the outset. This approach allows us to solve structural challenges creatively while ensuring your space aligns with both your vision and the building’s framework.
This Laguna Beach, CA interior design project was inspired by the architecture of the home first, the drama comes from the stark contrast of the black and white finishing and dynamic red cedar wood batten ceiling; it feels strong and edited. The clean minimalist palette layered in with texture and organic art references warm the space with a casual style. It was important to the clients that the space feel like a modern sanctuary set at the beach rather than the iconic “Beach House” that you see in carbon copy along the coast of Southern California.
