Daleet has more than twelve years of experience designing residential and commercial interiors. She grew up in Los Angeles, but her heritage stems from Latin America. 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 mixing 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.
