Company Overview

  • Costal cypress trees found in on the coast of Northern California convey a form of layering. A layering of texture, pattern, and light that is both comforting and tranquil.

    Ciprés del Sur is a retail space and cafe located in Carmel-By-The-Sea. When searching for home, we look for items that provide a sense of comfort and tranquility. The design for this retail space uses texture, layering, and light, to make customers feel at home and a sense of belonging.

  • Ciprés del Sur is a unique shopping experience in Carmel, California that incorporates accessories and home decor all in one place. It combines the minimalist nature of life and the beauty that Big Sur, California has to offer in one lifestyle concept. The overall shopping experience will give customers a sense of peace and tranquility as they shop. The store will also hold a coffee bar, where customers can enjoy a cup of coffee while relaxing with friends and family.

  • Within the vastness and beauty of the Pacific ocean, trouble occurs and it needs help restoring and protecting the wonders on a global scale. This collection targets an environmentally conscious audience, while providing the elegance and comfort needed for them to enjoy everyday life activities. Our goal is to unveil a story of resilience, tenacity and commitment through our products.

  • Ciprés del Sur will currently be a small business located in Carmel, California. While our only distribution channels will be in-store and online, we are hoping for our products to be sold in large retailers within the next couple of years. Our goal is to donate 10% of all proceeds each year to the Big Sur Land Trust that preserves the beauty and wildlife of the Pacific ocean and the coast of California.
