#1. Kelly Wearstler. She isn't just an interior designer, she's a brand. I love how she moves fluidly between hotel design, residential design and products. Definitely how I would like my business to grow.
I will always love canopy chairs. And the detail in the moulding with the black and gold paint? Subtle but gorgeous.

A great outdoor residential space. Makes me feel like I'm back on vacation

A STUNNING kitchen

#2. Jonathan Adler. Many are aware of his product design, but I think his interior designs are equally fabulous.
A fun Mad-Men-esque bedroom

I dream of the day I can put a hanging chair in a room in my house

This living room is retro without being campy

Chic!

Love the play with pattern

#3. Thom Felicia. With shows like Dress My Nest and Queer Eye for the Straight Guy under his belt, he has a lot of great press. His interiors are so serene - I love them!



#4. Betsy Burnham. A local LA designer who I can't get enough of.


The detailing on that cabinet is kind of genius.

#5. Amy Lau is a designer I've mentioned often on this blog. Her guts to continue the wallpaper on the ceiling - good move!
