Here’s something to light up your Sunday. Lighting shapes the way we experience a home, how it feels, how it functions, and how it welcomes us in. It doesn’t have to be purely practical either; the right fixture can become a quiet statement all on its own. The Studio Collection Sale Event is happening now, with 20% off pieces from iconic designers like Kelly Wearstler, Sean Lavin, Christiane Lemieux, Kate Spade New York, and more through 12/4/2025.

Discover Italian art designer Alex Turco’s “Only One” collection, an extraordinary showcase of sculptural works crafted from liquid metal, epoxy resin, cement, and even salt from the Black Rock Desert. Now on view at Graye Gallery in West Hollywood, this exhibit immerses you in texture, movement, and true material experimentation. A rare chance to experience (and potentially bring home) one-of-a-kind art.
