Terri Brien Interiors’ mission as a San Clemente interior designer is to create homes that support the rhythm of everyday life while elevating it through thoughtful detail, layered materials, and a warm, collected aesthetic.
Our vision is to design homes that feel effortless, inviting, and naturally aligned with how people live. We aim to bring a warm ambience into each client’s home through a layered and intentional design approach. Our experience and organized process ensure the journey feels smooth and well-supported from start to finish, helping clients make confident choices that reflect their lifestyle. The goal is to create spaces that feel deeply comfortable and enriching, shaped by thoughtful design and a natural understanding of how a home should support daily life.
“Beautifully designed! Terri listens as a designer. She was able to pick up on what I like and even presented me with options I never would have considered on my own. She was also incredibly timely, communicative, and organized with her presentation. I trusted her and I love the design she gave me. Elegant and welcoming."
We are constantly inspired by our surroundings, and San Clemente is no exception. Known for its scenic beach trails, where locals and visitors alike enjoy the fresh coastal air, the calming rhythm of waves crashing against the shore, and the beautiful sandy beaches, San Clemente’s charm extends beyond its coastline. The city boasts a variety of unique boutiques, cozy cafés, and vibrant restaurants that add character to each neighborhood.
You can often find us shopping at Cove on Del Mar, enjoying a glass of wine at Rancho Capistrano Winery, or indulging in Parker House rolls and the pork tomahawk at Rare Society. We can’t resist mentioning the beautifully designed interior of Rare Society! Not only is the food fabulous, but the design and ambiance make it the perfect date-night venue.
Our love for San Clemente goes beyond shopping and dining. Whenever possible, we partner with local artisans and craftsmen who bring high-quality, authentic pieces to our projects. This not only supports the community but also provides our clients with unique, one-of-a-kind elements that add character and personal significance to their homes.
