Inspiration: Flea Markets!

David has been a friend of the family for 20 years, ever since he and his family transplanted here from France and discovered the French community in Venice. He and my Dad bonded over their love of vintage California style and consequently dragged us daughters to the Rose Bowl Flea Market for years.

We're always looking for more candidates for house tours. If you or someone you know is interested in inviting us for a tour, please email us!

They bought up vintage radios, mid century credenzas, herman miller chairs, and lots and lots of vintage Air France posters and cowboy paintings. You might say that they were collectors.

At one point David had so many radios that half had to be in storage because there just wasn't enough room in the house. Today his collection is more manageabe and is proudly displayed as the first thing you see when you walk through the front door.
