Hollywood Life Magazine Home and Awards Show


I am so happy to announce that Cory Pernicano and I will be designing an eco-friendy media room at this years Hollywood Life Awards and Home Show. Last year we both had separate spaces, mine being the entry way and Cory's was the eco-friendly bedroom. This year's look is a dark and sexy bachelor pad and we are pulling pieces from Cisco Home, Viesso, vintage pieces from Turquoise and KellyGreen (Above is the space we are going to transform.)
