Luxury interior designer Elyssa Contardo lives by this philosophy, transforming spaces into ones that truly reflect those who inhabit them. As a luxury interior designer for the past 15 years, Elyssa is known for crafting spaces that resonate with her clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Elyssa is not tied down to one style; from contemporary elegance to timeless classics, her designs radiate beauty and comfort. Her eponymous firm, Elyssa Contardo Designs, has two locations, one in Palm Desert, CA, and the other in Park City, UT. <span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">And in August 2025, the creati<\/span>ve interior designer will launch a new paint stain line called&nbsp;<em>Tinted<\/em>\u2014stay tuned!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We had the pleasure of connecting with Elyssa Contardo for this edition of <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/tag\/lh-design-questionnaire\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Love Happens\u2019 Design Questionnaire<\/a><\/em>.

It includes time spent with loved ones, engaging in activities I\u2019m passionate about, and embracing nature. It\u2019s about finding balance, connection, and contentment in the everyday moments that make life special. A quiet morning routine, traveling with friends, or enjoying a mellow evening, it\u2019s those little moments that bring me joy and contentment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-do-you-consider-your-greatest-achievement\"><strong>What do you consider your greatest achievement?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I often find myself reflecting on my journey and realizing that I haven&#8217;t yet reached my greatest achievement. While I\u2019ve accomplished many things that I\u2019m proud of, there\u2019s a lingering sense that my potential is still waiting to be fully realized. I crave experiences that challenge me and push my boundaries, whether that\u2019s in my personal life or career. It feels like I\u2019m on the cusp of something greater, and I\u2019m motivated to seek out opportunities that will help me grow and evolve. Each step I take is a part of this ongoing journey, and I\u2019m excited for what\u2019s still to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"616\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC00080-HDR-1.jpg\" alt=\"Elyssa Contardo Design project for a luxury living room.\" class=\"wp-image-109622\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC00080-HDR-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC00080-HDR-1-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC00080-HDR-1-768x462.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-profession-does-your-alter-ego-have\"><strong>What profession does your alter ego have?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As an Interior Designer to the outside world, no one sees the 1000s of items we juggle. From emails, texts, damaged product, missing product, and an angry sub. How much paperwork goes into writing up one custom sectional? From the custom drawings to the yardage amount, seat height, arm height, seat depth, fabric quantity, fabric material, etc. In one custom sectional, I could probably spend 20 hours or so on it. I always tell people we are like your primary Doctor, we know a little about a lot, but I am not a tile installer, I\u2019m not an electrician. But by knowing a little about every topic, we are able to execute a whole house from the inside out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-project-you-will-never-forget\"><strong>The project you will never forget.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project I will never forget was when I first started Interior Design. It was my first project at a design firm I worked for when I finished school in 2008. It was about a 15 million dollar home for the owner of the Bighorn Development in Palm Desert. It\u2019s a very high-end, exclusive golf club. I remember after we installed, the wife wanted a Dining Room rug for her 16-foot long Dining Table, and she needed it in 3 weeks for an intimate charity event they were hosting at their home, and each plate was $300,000.00. But, it had to be Native American styled and Turquoise. So, of course, we had no time to have a custom-made one, and my boss made it my job to find one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I told myself there had to be one rug in the whole United States that would work for this, and I just had to track it down. So I did, I found it a few days later. There was some drama with me getting a sample, getting it approved, and getting the Rug expedited there on time, but it all worked out. We installed the Area Rug before the event, and it was stunning. After that, my boss always made me source and deal with all those really fun impossible tasks, haha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02666-HDR.jpg\" alt=\"A living room created by Elyssa Contardo Designs\" class=\"wp-image-109635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02666-HDR.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02666-HDR-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02666-HDR-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02666-HDR-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02666-HDR-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02666-HDR-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"109633\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02813-3-1-1-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"A luxury shower set up made by Elyssa Contardo Designs\" class=\"wp-image-109633\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02813-3-1-1-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02813-3-1-1-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02813-3-1-1-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02813-3-1-1-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02813-3-1-1-1638x2048.jpg 1638w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC02813-3-1-1-scaled.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"109625\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC00242-HDR-1-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"A bedroom made by Elyssa Contardo Designs\" class=\"wp-image-109625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC00242-HDR-1-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC00242-HDR-1-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC00242-HDR-1-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC00242-HDR-1.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-your-favorite-business-tool-or-resource\"><strong>Your favorite business tool or resource.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My favorite tool is an electric measurer. I love using this. I\u2019m really quick with a tape measure, I\u2019ll say,<br>but for long walls and high ceilings, because I am short, I really like my electric tape measure. I also like<br>the app company Cam that my team and I use. This app lets us upload photos to each job, and they are<br>organized in folders that my whole team has access to. This has helped us so much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-most-timeless-design\"><strong>The most timeless design.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most timeless design often combines simplicity, functionality, and elegance, transcending trends<br>while remaining relevant across eras. Classic elements like neutral color palettes, natural materials (think<br>wood, stone, and leather), and clean lines create a harmonious and inviting space. Ultimately, a timeless<br>design feels both fresh and familiar, inviting people in while allowing for personal expression. It\u2019s about<br>creating spaces that are as beautiful as they are livable, adaptable to change without losing their essence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture2-1-1024x681.png\" alt=\"A patio bar within a luxury home created by Elyssa Contardo Designs\" class=\"wp-image-109636\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture2-1-1024x681.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture2-1-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture2-1-768x511.png 768w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture2-1-1536x1022.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Picture2-1-2048x1362.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-biggest-design-faux-pas\"><strong>The biggest design faux pas.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have a few design faux pas, including over-styled shelves. Area rugs that are too small. Art that<br>is hung too high, or too low, and also if the scale is too small. A big one in the bathrooms for the Primary<br>is overhead lighting. You always want side lighting in a bathroom because of the direct shadows it casts on your face if you have overhead lighting. A huge one for me is ugly faux plants. Also, any accents that are too cheesy really can cheapen your space. Sometimes I am brought in by realtors in the Golf Clubs out here in Palm Desert, and they ask my team and me to style the houses to get them on the market. Half of what we do is take out excessive accessories and dated houseplants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-your-design-motto\"><strong>Your design motto.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A motto that I live by for my clients is &#8216;Where elegance meets comfort&#8217;.
