Barclay Butera Laguna Smithcliff Woven Side Chair - 20 Inch Collection_Zuma with vertical grain white oakLaguna Beach holds a special meaning for me. As a young designer, my very first real estate purchase was a bungalow in Laguna once owned by Hollywood screen legend Bette Davis. Like many of the cottages that lined the coast years ago, it had a timeless traditional feel without the formal trappings. The renovation taught me that design and scale are not mutually exclusive. Cozy spaces exude an intimacy easily lost in the grand scaling of homes today.
