Born and raised in the Roaring Fork Valley near Aspen, Colorado, Chris Blaul developed his skill and passion for painting and design at a young age. During high school, Chris began honing his painting skills, working on custom homes in the Aspen area. After attending the Denver Institute of Technology, Chris moved to California and decided to make Santa Barbara his home. By 1991, Chris was licensed as a painting contractor, and shortly thereafter, CB Paint & Decor was established. Over the last 3 decades, Chris has redesigned, remodeled, redecorated, and transformed hundreds of clients’ Santa Barbara homes, as well as his own residences, into charming and elegant abodes. His knowledge of trends and classic styles gives him a unique edge that enables him to envision the décor that is suited to his clients’ tastes. Chris’s inspiration can be seen all over Santa Barbara, from downtown restaurants to palatial estates.
