  • Tag along to Ojai, California for a behind the scenes visit with designer and shop owner Isabelle Dahlin and husband, chef and restauranteur Brandon Boudet. Conveniently located between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, the bucolic town of Ojai is celebrated for its natural beauty, temperate climate, and focus on ecology, organic agriculture and the arts, all with a relaxed sophistication. Here Dahlin and Boudet found a small house on an acre of isolated land next to a lemon orchard. Learn how together they created a dreamy bohemian oasis with outdoor areas for cooking, lounging and even guests. See how they transformed what was once a carport into an open space for al fresco dining with an outdoor kitchen outfitted with a wood burning gaucho grill and beehive oven. Watch to see how they quickly added a pool and pool house, surrounded by a wooden deck, barrel sauna (Dahlin is Swedish) and anchored by a tepee for an immersive outdoor experience. With Isabelle’s background in design and Brandon’s restaurant and culinary expertise they have created a compound with a focus on the organic and natural, where outdoor living and entertaining is celebrated and enjoyed throughout the year! You’ll be inspired, informed and entertained!! For more visit quintessenceblog.com

    The outdoor space with the dining areas was really beautiful and tasteful. The dogs and the couple were very nice but a shame we did not see more of the interior if the outside is anything o go by it will be wonderful. Loved the collection of crushing on the sofa. The food looked wonderful.

      I loved that teepee by the pool, down in the garden. It's far more aesthetically pleasing than a camping tent and much less expensive than building a pool house. Tents turn into ghastly saunas on hot, sunny days but tee pees are roomier and a better idea. The day bed mattresses inside were a great touch. I imagine how nice it would be to have a swim and then have a nap in there...or when there's a summer rainstorm you can dash in and play a game of cards or read and have lunch. I love this channel too. 😊

      Yes, those tomatoes! Every time I see people in the supermarket buying the cheapest punnet of tomatoes, which smell of nothing and taste of nothing I want to weep, and a combination of pity, frustration and disgust overtake me and form a brand-new emotion. My view is to always spend as much as you can afford buying tomatoes and if you can't afford to splurge then don't buy tomatoes. It's a pathetic thing to witness. To think, some folks have no idea that they're eating tasteless crap and have no idea what good quality in-season tomatoes actually look and taste like. In the UK, buying stone fruit is a total waste of money. Always unripe, sour tasteless garbage. Once you've had a PROPER white peach...holy smokes, it ruins you for life. I wonder what produce YOU avoid buying if you can't get the 'good stuff'? 😅

Then of course, there are the rodents in amongst everything!
