HERMOSA SURF It's a board shop. It's a café. It's a high-designed hangout with serious local cred. Racks brim with S.D. brands like Moon Wetsuits while the mid-century chairs are an ideal spot to kick back with the Kale-r Wave, a vegan smoothie made with ashwagandha, kale, and house granola. Living the dream: Owners Benny Walter and Attila Betyar, brothers who spent their youth on Lower Hermosa and later manifested this surf-stoked HQ designed by Solstice Interiors. @ranchandcoast 63 TWO ROOMS To achieve on-the-verge neighborhood status, an art gallery is required. ankfully, there's Two Rooms. e artist-run gallery and project space was founded by Lizzie Zelter two years ago. From this strip mall location, she single-handedly drums up excitement for a tightly conceived curation of S.D. and Baja artists. FORBLEU From the same designer who brought us the dreamy Hermosa Surf Shop comes Forbleu by Solstice Interiors. Exuding the sun-dappled, homespun vibe of owner Katie Betyar, the shop features custom and vintage furniture, lighting, textiles, and art. "My overall design aesthetic is truly a reflection of the laid-back, California lifestyle," says Betyar, who named the shop for her daughter, Blue. "I'm a firm believer in the importance of our surroundings at home — it's where we recharge our batteries, connect with our loved ones, nourish ourselves and our bodies. So, Forbleu is a special curation of goods meant to inspire just that."
