TypeA Attends Legends 2013 at La Cienega Design Quarter

I recently had the opportunity to attend Legends, an international three-day design event sponsored by Coldwell Banker Previews International®, 1stdibs, One Kings Lane and Dering Hall, among others.

Now–besides the fact that I had the opportunity to fawn over antique furniture I can’t afford and satisfy my people watching appetite for at least a year (attending an opening night gala party with Windsor Smith, Kelly Wearstler, Thom Filicia, Cliff Fong and other interior design powerhouses will do that to you)–I interviewed someone I highly respect for the event. None other than Mr. Michael Boodro, editor-in-chief of ELLE DECOR. As part of an exclusive Q&A series for Previews, Mr. Boodro educated me on all things historic (“we’re starting to see the Austrian Wiener Werkstätte style come back”) and the latest trends (“look for a lot of bronze, brass, and low slung furniture…with a little bit of disco thrown in!”).  Needless to say, I closed out the week feeling both humbled and honored to attend this special event with some of the brightest design minds in the business.  A sincere thank you to Previews and 1stdibs for the opportunity!
