"Lauren Talio described this 900-square-foot, one-bedroom apartment in Los Angeles' Melrose Hill as "sun-drenched" with "geometric Art Deco molding" and white plaster walls when she first moved in. A perfect blank slate, considering her line of work. "With glimpses of both the Hollywood Sign and Griffith Observatory, this home was the ultimate canvas for me as an interior designer in the up-and-coming neighborhood of Melrose Hill," Lauren writes."
"After renting it for a year, Lauren described her home as a "layered retreat with a collected spirit. Vintage-driven, color-forward, and deeply personal, blending French heritage with a touch of 1970s Italian glamor." Vintage Sewing Entry Table - Long Beach Flea Perforated Vintage Lamp - Maker unknown, but sourced at the tried-and-true Urban Americana Vintage film photo of two people kissing between cars on what appears to be the Pacific Coast Highway - Rose Bowl Flea. "So unique and something so quintessentially California about it." Eames Chair - "Gifted by an old client who found it in their storage container. I basically saved its life." Art - Zoe Rose Vintage Asymmetrical Natuzzi Mirrors - Rose Bowl Flea Svend Aage Holm Sorensen Wall Sconces - Sourced for $300 at the Rose Bowl Flea. "I knew these were a steal when I bought them, but I didn't realize how much of a steal." Vintage Trunk - Urban Americana Vintage Mid-Century Magazine Case - Sourced from Mart Collective in Venice. "I removed the base so it sits on the ground.""
