A Place for Furniture

As an Interior Designer I've always gravitated {without control} to anything design related and going to H.D. Buttercup in LA is not just a coincidence. I was taken there a while ago by a friend who was helping me with my move to the city.


The place is a huge warehouse that used to be a bakery and has been retrofitted to be a huge showroom for many vendors of furniture, linen, accessories and even beauty products.


 I love that in there you can find items that are high priced like sofas and beds as well as items that are very affordable like fun lamps for the living room and chairs for your dining room. When I lived in LA I used to go and spend countless hours there just taking pictures and looking and things that would inspire me.


Have a nice day and remember to find aplace to get inspired!

    I love all the little details that I can see in the first shot. (And I've always had a weakness for clean, white couches.)
    PS Thanks for stopping by my blog. I'm having fun exploring yours.
