Design Inspiration - Sugar Paper, Los Angeles

I'm a big fan of Sugar Paper's letter-press stationary.  I must visit their store whenever I'm in Los Angeles.Before I said "arrivederci" to my Hollywood screenwriting career, my Los Angeles trips were a blur of pitches, general meetings, and being stuck in horrendous traffic.During my last trip, I was able to slow down a bit and really see Los Angeles. My feelings about Los Angeles have completely changed.  I lived there for ten years and was so happy to get out.  Now?  I'm excited to spend time there.  Not that excited about the thirteen-hour direct flight though.Sugar Paper is located in the Brentwood Country Mart.  The market is worth checking out as well.  In the past I've bought my stationary and rushed out the door to my next meeting.This time I had a lunch meeting at Farmshop in the Mart and the traffic gods had smiled upon me.  I was very early.  To be honest, my wallet was displeased with the turn of events.How lovely is this space?IMG_0107.jpgRenovated last year by the firm Life.Style., this update of the ten-year old shop is perfection.  The stationary is the star of the show.IMG_0105.jpgIMG_0108.jpgIMG_0102.jpg IMG_0099.jpg The brass light fixtures are Thomas O'Brien and the fabric is from Peter Dunham.
