The prestigious LA Times The Envelope series brings together top actors, actresses, and directors of the season. During a prolific Oscar season, I transformed an LA Times office into a stylish downtown loft for creative discussions. Two crisp off-white tufted sofas mirror each other atop a Monet Water Lilies-inspired silk bamboo rug, framing the space with elegance. A soothing pastel palette, modern furnishings in marble, brass, and bronze, and an upscale casual vibe set the tone. With views of the nearby clock tower and vibrant accessories, the space became the perfect backdrop for this dynamic series.
