Daleet Spector Design

Los Angeles Based Interior Designer Making Life Better Through Good Design. She grew up in Los Angeles but her heritage stems from Latin America.

Daleet Spector has more then twelve years of experience designing residential and commercial interiors. Summer vacations were spent in Venezuela visiting her grandparents – these experiences left a lasting impression and are still a source of inspiration for much of her work. Daleet is known for her clean lines and relaxed, uncomplicated spaces. Often using iconic modern pieces, she also likes mix

ing styles and throwing in unexpected elements; all the while remaining true to the integrity of existing architecture. Prior to turning her focus to interior design, Daleet founded and operated CityYard, a company that designed and developed home accessories with an urban garden twist. Her products were covered widely in publications such as InStyle, Coastal Living, The Washington Post, and Entrepreneur and sold in over 500 stores across the U.S. including retailers like Pottery Barn and Urban Outfitters. Ultimately, more than 1 million dollars of CityYard products were sold. Daleet holds a Master’s degree in Interior Architecture from the joint program between UCLA Extension and Cal Poly Pomona. Before that she received a B.A. from the University of Pennsylvania in Design of the Environment and Art History. Daleet's work is uncomplicated - yet detailed, thoughtful and alive. There’s a laid back order to the spaces she designs. She focuses on architectural elements like space planning and remodeling, ensuring function and decor are equally considered. Daleet has a distinct visual style but her work is not repetitive. Having two young children, she understands firsthand the desire for spaces that function well for kids but are sophisticated enough for adults.

The last time I was at was in the 1980s, although it’s been updated, the charm and authenticity remain.

The Palmilla feels like a historic Mexican beach estate that has been incredibly maintained over the years. The architecture, lighting, natural setting, pools and details are all gorgeous. The staff are so warm and welcoming and do everything to contribute to the serenity of the hotel.

We were here for 6 days, 2 of which were during Hurricane Hilary, and there was not a single moment we did not enjoy ✨

Gorgeous Cabo, even with Hurricane Hilary! As long as they don’t run out of tequila and I will be fine 🤪

I’m smiling big because 🎂51🎂 feels great!

My wish for the year ahead is to contribute beauty ~ to both the physical and spiritual worlds of my family, friends and clients ❤️

08/01/2023

This guest room got a qu**ky makeover ~ new curtains, rug, pouf, bedding, sconce and desk ~ because my client’s niece was coming to stay.

I prefer to plan ahead but sometimes life sneaks up on you. We did what we could in the short lead time and now the room looks so much more inviting! See the “before” pic at the end 👉🏻

08/01/2023

This is a nice transformation in the works! We refinished the wood railings, steps and mirror to a sunbleached finish, painted the walls crisp white, reupholstered cushions, and got new furniture, rugs and pillows. Now we’re waiting to hang a beautiful glass chandelier over the dining area just beyond the railing and then some art and accessories will polish it off. Clearly the “before” was ready for some TLC 👉🏻

I’m so glad my client went for this beautiful Peter Dunham wall paper, it added the perfect amount of detail to her beachy bedroom.

We had a fun weekend in upstate New York and the highlight was seeing perform at . He had 6 weeks of fun and hard work, made good friends and grew as a person and performer.

Clearly there’s a pattern emerging… eat//eat//eat//eat 😂🐽
Lot’s of delicious food

Old and new flowing together seamless in historic Kingston, NY. Founded in the 1650s it was the original state capital of New York ~ now it’s a great place to spend the weekend.

07/02/2023

We had some good food but the pizza was definitely a highlight. I love the no-nonsense design of the space too!

06/27/2023

Happiest Birthday sweetie, you’re the absolute best, that sums it up 😍

I love the soft and soothing wallpaper we added to this girl’s room - her mom loves it so much now we’re wallpapering her room too!

High school here we come!!

This hardworking cottage is almost done. It will function as an office, entertaining space and guest house. We added lots of built-in storage, a Murphy bed, new bathroom, bar area and desks, and plenty of natural light. The last picture shows our furniture ideas.

08/25/2022

There’s lots to love in the medieval town of Pals - beautiful architecture, delicious food and amazing natural lighting at the Arke Hotel.

08/23/2022

Cadaques is popping with bright colors and so much charm

08/20/2022

There’s no more scenic place to get your steps in then the medieval city of Girona. We climbed ancient stairs, explored a ruined fortress and had fun taking pictures at some of the hotspots.

08/18/2022

The path to beautiful beach in Begur could not be more picturesque

08/15/2022

I guess I have a thing for extremely narrow Spanish streets and we saw lots of them on our walking tour of Barcelona’s old city. The best was the one with gelato and Santa Maria Del Mar so tall and skinny in the last picture 🍦

08/14/2022

This spiral stair 👉🏻 this pool… we’re off to a great start in Barcelona 🇪🇸

08/11/2022

It’s so exciting to begin work after months of planning. This kitchen is getting refreshed cabinets, new lighting and plumbing fixtures, and reupholstered furniture. I can’t wait to come back and see more progress.

08/07/2022

Coffee in my garden > Yoga > sushi > a little shopping, a little napping > happy flowers > dinner with my favorite people at one of my favorite spots… 50 is kinda scary but it’s off to a perfect start!

08/06/2022

Coffee on one side and cocktails on the other, my pantry/bar is got what you’re looking for ☕️🍸

Just got a box of samples from @annsacks new Spring collection. The terra-cotta Idris mosaic is my favorite and might be just the tile I was wanting for my new fountain wall. Check out my stories to see more. @annsacks_losangeles #annsacksvip

Being forced to slow down has given me new ways to look at things that I may have just walked by before.

Super cold 🥶 in Mammoth but still as beautiful as can be
