How designers and restaurateurs are emulating those sunny Los Angeles vibes indoors

Coast and Valley co-founders Stephanie Watanabe and Eric Hsu go a step further. The husband-and-wife team transplanted art from their own living room to the restaurant, along with their own plants and even pieces of their home altar . “There’s an aspect of connection, of community, of feeling uplifted, that carries through in the design,” Watanabe says.
The Venice fantasy Watanabe describes and the platonic Malibu ranch home that runs through PST make clear that “California style” could more accurately be described as “Southern California style.” “When we talk about California, the style we’re talking about is really specifically Los Angeles,” says Cal Poly Pomona art history professor Alison Pearlman.
Goldstein credits LA’s obsession with glitz and glamour for sparking the ensuing trend across the city, as owners sought to capture buzz by elevating diner experience. The aesthetic spread east in 1980 to restaurants like Trumps on Melrose, where Michael Roberts refurbished a gas station with art and succulents. In 1982 Puck introduced Beverly Hills to Spago, which recalled airy midcentury Case Study Houses by the Eamses and Neutra.
