In Search of the Spa Life: Westedge Design Fair Los Angeles

Spa Brunch took our series, “In Search of the Spa Life”, to a new kind of interior design and decor show, Westedge. Not one where your head spins from vendor overload, or looks like Home Depot threw up in a convention center. Nope. An uber cool extravaganza where you fly the friendly design skies with a global array of emerging designers in Barker Aircraft Hanger. Now this we dig!

When we leave the studio In Search of the Spa Life, we’re looking for ideas & products to bring the luxe spa vibe home. After all, that’s how we live so why not come along for the ride? You may find something you love too. And Westedge did not disappoint, we even found products that ARE actually in spas – what luck!

Videos are on the way, so be sure to register for the Brunch Bliss List to get an update when they come out. Meanwhile, a little photo tour of some of the hottest ideas we found to bring spa style to your decor:  Click on the image to go see the rest of these amazing designers’ creations:

We went nuts over Palmpring's innovative beds and mattresses made from coconut husks!  The founder was inspired on a trip to India when he noticed locals sleeping on coconut mats.  It's hypoallergenic and lasts 20 years and is super comfy too!
