Big thanks to everyone for attending our recent book signing and Rincon open house event co-sponsored by OK, the awesome design store in West Hollywood. 600+ people toured the new Rincon and had the opportunity for Ron and Leo to personally sign their books. It was a fun-filled night with design world celebrity guests and a Japanese theme! Thanks to Larry and all the staff at OK for their involvement and selections of lovely lifestyle accessories throughout the home.

We were honored to have lush landscaping provided by Monrovia Growers, a local green-based horticultural company that shares a passion for Distinctively Better plants, and amazingly they are members of the FSC. Thanks to Kathy at Monrovia.

The gorgeous bedding in the Rincon was provided by local luxury textiles gurus, Matteo Home. Their exclusive range of bedding is distributed by the finest specialty stores and interior designers. They offer several cozy lines of bedding, bath and loungewear including a new organic line. Thank you Christian at Matteo.
