César Giraldo - Club 1683 Member
César Giraldo, founder, and principal designer of César Giraldo Design was born in Colombia, where as a child he discovered his love for color and form - the foundational elements of his design philosophy. Based in West Hollywood, CA, César works with clients in the America’s and internationally on a variety of residential, commercial and hospitality projects
César’s poetic approach to the positioning of spaces and objects creates welcoming environments that exude elegance and elevate the human spirit.
The process of designing is a deeply personal experience for César, building a solid reputation for transforming interiors into luxurious spaces that reflect his clients’ unique personalities and lifestyles. He believes the completed environment should not only represent visual beauty—it must reflect the essence of a client.
A recent project, in Oahu, epitomizes contemporary luxury design with stunning ocean and island views. The bath is a virtual oasis, complete with a marble soaking tub, elegantly Old-World marble sinks made contemporary through the floating installation. The perfect blend of old meets new.

The Soul of the Home
This project celebrates the kitchen as the soul of the home, offering a magnificent entertaining area complemented by a dramatic window wall, connecting the indoors to the out. Integral to the space are Gaggenau appliances. The clean, classic lines balance a need for state-of-the-art technology with a graceful presence.
Virtually all the appliances are hidden except one – the Gaggenau coffee machine. This multi-dimensional living area, designed for a person for whom coffee is nothing if not an obsession, was destined to feature this simple yet handsome piece of equipment.

Gaggenau understands the importance of customer service, support and engagement. Being a part of this group demonstrates their commitment to me. We’re all in tune with the same vision.”
