The artful Archers

The Archers are a small creative studio in Los Angeles California that has a deep sense of curiosity and an affinity for research which is evident through their considered and intelligent interiors and architecture.

This 1980’s apartment has been completely striped back and renovated with the only request from the client of “great floors and lighting”. This is no small feat with a north facing aspect!

A considered use of internal windows with varying degrees of transparency brings light into parts of the home which previously were dark corners. I thoroughly enjoy an interior window when as skilfully executed as they are here. The new floor plan enlarges the primary entertaining zones, and creates a clean backdrop for ever-changing art installations. The floors are wide planks of reclaimed oak that only align to the central spine of the apartment. The palette of materials is somewhat neutral allowing furnishings like a custom olive wood dining table by The Archers themselves and pieces by Lina Bo Bardi, Oscar Niemeyer, and Warren McArthur.

The Archers’ approach is to develop a distinctive aesthetic that best represents the client’s vision while remaining true to the architectural setting and landscape. I’m all about great design!
