Ever wondered what a professional set designer\u2019s home looks like? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Angel Bond knows how to set a stage. As an experienced art director, musician, and designer, she understands how to create a vibe and a feeling. Her 1900s craftsman home became a canvas to express her artistic visions when she set out to transform it into a space that is both hip and sophisticated. \u201cWe wanted to make it as funky as we could yet still keep the class of its architecture,\u201d she says. And she succeeded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of her first decor projects was a sentimental one\u2014finding a way to preserve and display her wedding flowers in the space. Bond dried and spray-painted bundles of florals and hung them from the ceiling, creating puffy clouds of popping color. Dried floral arrangements are present in every room, tying together every eclectic corner of the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the pandemic, Bond took on many decor projects to keep her creative energy flowing, many of them involving creative paint treatments. She painted the front dining room a deep emerald green and embellished all the walls with elegant gold leafing. She also painted a geometric, M.C. Escher-inspired pattern on the floor of the sunroom. \u201cI had never tried anything like this and had almost given up several times trying to figure out the math of it!\u201d she shared. These were meticulous projects, but they quickly became her favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
