design, art, dogs – all the good things.

Because we know the holidays can be hairy and frantic and stressful, we thought we’d help assuage some frazzled souls with our #lilyspindleholidayguide (see guide in its entirety on our site) // Rolling them out as the #12daysofchristmas, we’re starting with WHERE TO REFUEL WHILE YOU’RE SHOPPING ‘TIL YOU’RE DROPPING...we cover 3 of our favorite spots all over LA - Atwater Village’s @allacquaresto, Culver City’s @thewallacela and Santa Monica’s @miloandolive Mangia!!! . . . #holidayguide #eatinginla #holidaytips #lilyspindle #eatwell #allacquarestaurant #miloandolive #thewallace #culvercity #santamonica #atwatervillage Truth be told, we haven’t decorated in honor of the holidays one bit....yet. We did, however, put together a fun holiday guide we’ll be rolling out on the IG as the 12 days of Christmas 🎄 @theboozybungalow is festive as heck, however, and we’re getting inspired by her holiday handiwork! Happy Sunday, loves! ❤️ And now, as promised, a glimpse into how Lily Spindle’s @debvigna lives! Residing in LA’s historic Baldwin Hills, with amazing views of the city, living with her husband, artist @david__lloyd, three adorable rescue muttlets, and a panoply of cats, her ranch house is 1950s awesomeness. Case Study fiberglass Rocker and lemon dining chairs from @modernica; faux sheep-skin dog bed from @treatadog; antique bar cart with lots o’booze; Platner-style coffee table base with scavenged marble top scored on @craigslist; MCM sectional sofa custom upholstered in @Sunbrella turquoise dupioni; abstract painting by @david__lloyd; vintage Persian Heriz rug; Nelson Saucer Pendant Lamp from @hermanmiller; assorted vintage glass and ceramics; Lily the white pitbull courtesy of @downtowndogrescue #dogfriendlydesign #designforawelllovedlife #interiordesign #decor #lovehowyoulive #californialiving #baldwinhills #buyvintage #vintagefurniture #midcenturymodern #livingwithart This corner by @jhinteriordesign is EVERYTHING. Velvet chair, vintage painting, gorgeous painting parsons work table, and holy 🐄 is that wallpaper 🙌🏽 Thought it might be fun to share a glimpse into how we (@toomanyterriers and @debvigna) personally live! This is Rebecca’s living room in Venice, California, a home she and her artist husband @nedevans share with their four rescue dogs. They recently repainted their front door in @benjaminmoore Devonshire Green and it’s totally transformed the space, as paint is wont to do. #thepowerofpaint eames chair renewed and reupholstered by @theonlychair_ , vintage furniture all over the place; family portrait by @viviennestrauss; @ed_ruscha print; vintage landscape painting from the ‘40s; resin tear by @nedevans; metal mask by @estebanandkaren; ceramic table lamp from @vintage_on_point; side table by Jimmy Ganzer; #jasperjohns print above Eames lounger // #lovehowyoulive #californialiving #venicecalifornia #artcollection #buyvintage #vintagefurniture #interiordesign #decor #dogfriendly The first Monday of December. Holy smokes. ALREADY?? Is it just us or has time basically evaporated since September?!? Trying to take every day as it comes and not stress about the extremely imminent holidays 😳 Think we’ll just imagine hanging in this glorious space in @artistresidence to assuage our frantic brains. // In other news, we had an incredible all-day photo shoot this past Friday with @michelethomasphoto, capturing the beauty of our #projectpasadenafamilypack 🙌🏽 Can’t wait to share them with y’all! We 💜 @sterinwilliamson’s style. That is all. // Be safe in today’s rain, Angelenos! 🌧 When you find the pair of vintage slipper chairs reupholstered in dead stock Alexander Girard fabric while helping a friend furnish her new digs, you buy those beauts. No questions asked. @toomanyterriers Frederick approves. #dogsinchairs #buyvintage #shopvintage #alexandergirard #stripedchairs Countless things to be grateful for this season. And for all the seasons, really. Thanks to our friends and families who support our mission to design spaces for the well-loved life. Living with beauty changes one’s energy and perspectives (it’s true. It’s science.). and we are endlessly and ceaselessly grateful to be able to make things beautiful for our wonderful clients! It can take a boatload of trust to bring designers on board, and we’re thankful for every one of you who’ve made and are imminently making that ambitious leap and loving the results of our work. Here we (@toomanyterriers @debvigna) are after a long, sweaty day at @fleafasano‘s amazing digs, staging the heck out of her home as the denouement in a 6-7 month remodel. ✨ // #In this season of giving thanks, please consider the people affected so tragically and deeply by the Woolsey fire - donate, give, support, help. Many of these people have lost everything but the literal clothes on their backs. @woolseyfirestrong is a pretty good resource for updates on where your aid can be most impactful. // With love from Lily Spindle ❤️ #projectatwaterwiththeewoks #lilyspindledesign #womenowned #designteam #losangelesinteriors #smallbusinesssupport #decor Is it the herringbone floor? The amazing collection of art? The books? The ceramics? The mirror? The pendant? The cantilevered chrome chairs? Is it all of it, together? Knocking it outta the park,UK designer @violetandgeorge Mother Earth is sending a message loud and clear, as Southern California struggles with the blazing Woolsey fires for the last four days. Animals and humans are running for their survival, homes and all that these structures hold in their memories, histories, and lives lived and loved reduced to devastating cinder and ash. The @losangelesfiredepartment is a team of incredibly courageous heroes, saving both human and animal lives and showing no signs of giving up in the face of Santa Ana’s unpredictable winds. We’ve heard they desperately need hydration packs and you can help them by going to @lafdfoundation and donating your heart out. In the wake of this nightmarish weekend following a nightmarish mid-week in Thousand Oaks #thousandoaksshooting, we’ve all seen a bit too much horror for our spirits to bear. thusly, we’re sharing this beautiful little entryway tableau by @leannefordinteriors rather than any images of the billowing smoke or horses galloping for their lives, flames dancing angry and red in the distance. // We (@debvigna and @toomanyterriers) went to @hollywoodimprov last night in support of @standupforpitsfoundation and let ourselves laugh for a couple hours, despite the trauma and tragedy not just locally but globally, really. So much awe and respect for the many animal rescues, shelters, and volunteers who’ve banded together to mitigate the fall-out from these horrifying fires. All of you are the fiercest of angels on earth. @thelittlefarminojai @apurposefulrescue @westla_shelter @friendsofwestvalley @eastvalleyshelter @deityanimalrescue @maedayrescue @rita_earl_blackwell @whitneycummings @loveleorescue @angelcitypits @istandwithmypack #climatechangeisreal #californiastrong We’re brainstorming on a couple of girls’ bedrooms lately and bringing it unabashedly with the many hues of pink is unbelievably appealing. How awesome is this bedroom by @juliehillmandesign?!? VOTE 🗳 .... @thisispattismith has made the message dead easy for you. GO VOTE today. Vote for humanity, empathy, kindness, equality, respect, compassion, ethics, and heart. Vote with your heart. We’re on this earth together, we’re sharing this time and space. And abject, unfounded fears do nothing but cloud your emotions and distort your thoughts. Fear is a powerful thing. But love and compassion are stronger. Be compassionate. Be kind. Vote like your life and the lives of your friends, your family and your friends’ families depend on it, because they do. #vote #votewithheart #votewithconscience #votecalifornia #democracynow Great balls of fire, we are virtually OBSESSED with @eyeswoon’s dining room featured in @archdigest because ummmmmm...EVERYTHING. She goes into great detail on her post regarding each piece, how she altered, updated, or acquired it, which is super fascinating. Her dining table and chairs,for instance, were not newly procured vintage pieces, but to switch them up considerably, she ebonized the lot of them and reupholstered the Niels Otto Moller chairs in a lush, cozy 🐑 wool. We love how she hung the Ethan Cook painting off-center from the console, to align it with the 1960s Poul Henningsen pendants. Proof that symmetry certainly doesn’t equate with perfection. 💫🙌🏽 The reality is a number of us Angelenos are in tonight (or OUT at the game itself!) watching the Dodgers vs the Red Sox. As west coasters with east coast origins, our loyalties are torn. 😬 So looking at beautiful spaces like this sexy-as-hell bedroom-in-blues by @trilbeygordoninteriors is providing an excellent distraction from baseball team allegiance. Gooooo team! Hope everyone’s having a fun and gorgeous Friday night! Crisp white paired with indigo, patterned @hyggeandwest wallpaper is ALWAYS a good idea. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 @lra_architecture If you could see the insanity that is our office right now, you’d fully understand why we’re day dreaming of an inspirational, gorgeous space like this one by @beataheuman Truth be told, though, any day and any time we’d be digging this room and all its colors and unstoppable joie de vivre. In loooooove with this entry way by @jrandallpowers - that rug is an unexpected pop, right? And holy smokes and four alarm fires, the balusters are works of art in and of themselves. Happy Friday, loves! 😘 tbt to this beautiful project with this spectacular client. Hard fo believe it’s been well over a year! @poly_syllable
