SHOWROOM SPOTLIGHT: Holly Hunt opens flagship space in Los Angeles After almost four decades of serving luxury design clientele, Holly Hunt opened a new stand-alone showroom in Los Angeles in addition to its location at the Pacific Design Center. Located in the Sycamore District and designed in collaboration with L.A.–based architecture firm Johnston Marklee, the 20,000-square-foot warehouse includes two free-standing villas within the building’s concrete shell that balance the brand’s trademark luxury with an industrial backdrop. The showroom itself is nestled in a neighborhood surrounded by a lively mix of creative brands—a key selling point for the brand. “We have a very deep-rooted history with Los Angeles. We opened our first showroom at the PDC in 2005, so [the city] has always been a hugely important territory for us,” says Holly Hunt president Marc Szafran. “It’s a cultural hub with all the art, fashion, music, design and films. I think it is important for Holly Hunt as a brand to be in the center of all that creative energy as well, so that’s really what pushed us to open the showroom.”

Expressing the Holly Hunt brand in multiple locations within a city is nothing new for the company, which has long operated two showrooms within a block of each other in New York: a more traditional space at the D&D Building and a sprawling ground-floor footprint at the nearby A&D Building that complement each other. Unlike that pair, Holly Hunt’s sixth-floor space at the PDC primarily offers textiles, and Szafran explains that having a second, bigger showroom will allow the brand to better serve designers in Los Angeles. “Now we have two footprints in L.A.—the first one that’s focused on soft goods, textiles and wallcoverings, and this new flagship that showcases our larger portfolio of furniture, lighting, art and accessories,” he says.

The Los Angeles location was created as its own destination for the market, and inspired by the neighborhood and the building’s architecture. “We kept all of the original framework of the 1940s-era industrial warehouse,” says Szafran. “It allowed Joannah Kornak, our executive creative director, to play with the scale and balance of this raw industrial space combined with a beautiful refined Holly Hunt. In the end, we got to capture two sides of L.A.’s architectural landscape: the gritty, urban back lots and the sprawling industrial warehouses mixed with grand Hollywood interiors and the sophistication of modern L.A. aesthetic.”

The showroom features a 24-foot Vladimir Kagan Omnibus sofa anchoring the entry area, which was customized to match the scale and stature of a typical luxury residence in L.A., according to Szafran. New and innovative works from existing and emerging artists and special one-off pieces are also available to customers. “I think this showroom reflects that we don’t rest on our laurels,” says Szafran. “Holly [has always said], ‘Never let best get in the way of better.’ I think this showroom expresses that.” 945 North Highland Avenue, Suite 100, Los Angeles
