Shop: SALES  |
APRRO Pop-Up Store On Saturday from 6 pm to 9:30 pm, APRRO, CH+D’s 2010 award winner for best new product, is celebrating its first anniversary and the launch of its own pop-up store inside L.A.’s material [ENVIRONMENT]. And besides APRRO’s innovative furniture design, the store will be stocked with plenty of sake from the event sponsor, TY-KU—so come thirsty and ready to shop. Barclay Butera Tent Sale Saturday is the final day of Barclay Butera’s annual tent sale at his Newport Beach showroom. Covetable items from Baker, Henderson, Hickory Chair and Ralph Lauren Home have had their prices slashed 50 to 80 percent off. The deep discounts apply to all merchandise, so you might as well back up the U-Haul. |

Show: REAL ESTATE | Not Quite an Eichler in Diamond Heights This John Simmons–designed home, 48 Turquoise Way, features architecture and landscaping that would probably fit right in down in Palm Springs. Set on a hill, its floor-to-ceiling windows and generous decks take full advantage of the stunning views, which you can view for yourself this weekend. |
