grow and maintain a garden.

who blur the line between art and design.
FAVORITE SPOT IN YOUR HOME:
The outdoor patio. It is an extension of
our dining room, especially now since
Dear Hancock has claimed the dining
room table. We enjoy having dinner or a
glass of wine out there.
FAVORITE NEIGHBORHOOD RESTAURANT: Proof Bakery. We love going
there for lunch. They make these delicious
little baguette sandwiches—applewood
smoked bacon, goat cheese with plum preserves, and field greens! Yum yum.
FAVORITE NEIGHBORHOOD SHOP:
Urbanic Paper Boutique in Venice is not
in our direct neighborhood, but we love
that store. It is really well curated and
is in a beautiful space on Abbot Kinney
Boulevard.
BEST THING ABOUT WHAT YOU
DO: We get to manifest our ideas and
paint all the time.
THE THING YOU LOVE MOST
ABOUT LOS ANGELES: The light
glows beautifully here, defining everything. It’s hard to be in a bad mood in
this city.
