Living Room • 250 S Chadbourne Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90049
An expansive, hand-knotted hemp rug grounds the room. It provides a raw, tactile base underfoot. A polished concrete coffee table anchors the central area. One wall features textured limewash plaster.
Recessed lights highlight wall textures. A shimmering metallic pendant adds unexpected gleam. Chunky wool pillows contrast with fine silk throws. A raw timber console sits next to a sleek, lacquered credenza.
This design balances rough and refined elements.
Design Philosophy
This design creates a Sensory Dialogue through contrasting textures. Organic Modernism is expressed in the natural materials and clean lines. Industrial Refinement pairs raw elements with polished finishes. It grounds the experience in natural truth.
Spatial Narrative
The eye is drawn to the expansive hemp rug first. You walk across its woven surface to the central concrete table. Seating offers a mix of soft wool and smooth leather.
Light Study
Morning light streams through multiple windows, brightening the textured walls. Evening brings focused light from recessed fixtures. The metallic pendant casts a shimmering glow at night.
Living Vignette
A hand traces the cool, smooth surface of the concrete table. Fingers then reach for the soft, chunky wool of a pillow.
Material Palette
Hemp: It feels coarse and substantial, softening over time with wear.
Polished concrete: It feels smooth and cool to the touch, developing a unique patina.
Unfinished steel: It feels rough and solid, deepening in color with age.
