To create his eye-catching photo wall at the Legends design celebration in Los Angeles, Anthony Dargenzio of Zio Sons sourced fine furnishings from stores in the surrounding La Cienega Design Quarter. Here, he explains how it all came together:
“Since the VIP photo wall and lounge was going to be outside — located in the back garden at the Lee Stanton Antiques showroom — I really wanted to bring the indoors out, for a luxe-meets-casual garden setting. As a backdrop, we used a natural linen painter’s cloth. Then we pulled products from some of our favorite 1stdibs vendors in the La Cienega Design Quarter.
We went to Lee Stanton Antiques for a few of the larger pieces, like the 18th century Italian columns, a French iron and marble bistro table and English wood étagère. We then paired it with the contemporary gray Milano chair from Downtown and anchored the set with a bronze, footed lamp from Remains.
The antique rugs were sourced at Woven, along with decorative accessories for the shelving unit from Dragonette and Hollyhock. To complete the look, we added a pop of blue with a cashmere throw from Hollywood at Home. Overall, the look was exactly what we were going for and a perfect mix of old and new.”
