Everyone deserves to love their home, and every home deserves a little extra care from time to time. Thoughtful design has the power to transform daily life, creating spaces that feel elevated, beautiful, and uniquely personal.
For decades, homeowners have turned to Calico (calicocorners.com), a multi-generational design retailer with more than 50 design shops nationwide. Its Laguna Niguel location, relocated in 2022 to 23966 Aliso Creek Road, carries that tradition of inspired, approachable luxury forward.
Founded in 1948, Calico has refined the design process into something both seamless and collaborative. As a true one-stop destination for decorating, they offer everything from stunning custom window treatments to gorgeous upholstery, bedding, cushions, and pillows that are supported by complimentary, tailored design guidance at every stage.
“Your home should be designed around your lifestyle,” shares one of the designers at Calico. “Your taste is unique and personal, which is why it will never seem out of style.”
At Calico, the focus is on discovering the colors, textures, and patterns that reflect your personal style, incorporating elements that bring joy into everyday living. Through decades of firsthand experience and customer testimonials, Calico understands how profoundly thoughtful design can elevate a home, and the people who live in it.
Bid farewell to outdated décor, faded fabrics, and tired furnishings that subtly signal a space is ready for renewed attention. In contrast, a thoughtfully designed room feels welcoming and energizing; an inviting space to come home to, day after day, with a sense of classic style that never fades.
Calico’s designers encourage clients with a simple mantra: “Don’t be afraid to be bold, be creative, be you!” For clients seeking color and pattern, they deliver. Over the past decade, gray and beige have come to dominate residential interiors, now accounting for nearly half of the color in our homes.
While neutrals have their place, too much restraint can leave rooms feeling flat and uninspired. If your space feels color-deprived, vibrant hues and expressive patterns can instantly reinvigorate a neutral palette.
Calico’s fabric gallery features more than 5,000 luxurious options, spanning every style imaginable, with something sure to suit even the most discerning of tastes. Browse at your own pace and take it all in or enlist the help of their onsite designers to curate selections that just feel right.
With this expressive philosophy as a guide, your creative journey begins the moment you step inside the Laguna Niguel design shop. Open and light-filled, spanning 2,900 square feet, the space showcases an extensive collection of fabrics, trims, hardware, and custom window treatments.
Their impressive selection also includes blinds and shades from Hunter Douglas, thoughtfully presented alongside upholstered furniture, pillows, bedding, and wallpaper. Inspiring displays present polished, yet livable interiors, offering beautifully considered ideas that translate effortlessly into your own home. Throughout the showroom, iPads provide access to an array of stylish and classic options, inviting you to peruse at your leisure.
When it’s time to refresh your personal space, Calico offers a seamless and sophisticated way to support a local business. The store is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., with weekend appointments available upon request. Complimentary design services are available both in-store and at home, ensuring a tailored experience every step of the way.
