The Colorful Home of Emmy Raver-Lampman and Daveed Diggs

I love the Los Angeles home of Emmy Raver-Lampman (from Netflix's "The Umbrella Academy") and Daveed Diggs (from the stellar stage hit "Hamilton" for which he won a both a Grammy and a Tony!), that Raver-Lampman designed with interior designer Mandy Cheng. I appreciate it as an interior designer, but also just as a person who is visually stimulated. There is so much beauty and color and texture and life and fun in this home.

In their living room, I love the photo booth kissing series over the fireplace, Raver Lampman's lovely basket collection on the walls, and of course the hanging swing seats.

Raver-Lampman used her quarantine down-time to paint hash marks on the wall of their office which replicates the look of high end wallcoverings like Porter Teleo.

Diggs chose the humorous wallcovering in the powder room: the Bay Area Toile by Flavor Paper, featuring iconic people from the San Francisco Bay Area like legendary quarterback Joe Montana, local Channel 2 news anchor Dennis Richmond (if you are a long-time resident of the Bay Area who is of a certain age, like myself, you will certainly recognize Dennis Richmond!), rapper E-40, political activist Angela Davis, and even Chez Panisse founder Alice Waters.

They converted a never-used wine storage space under the stairs into a really cool record lounge spot!

The stair runner is super--a patchwork of smaller rugs and runners sewn together to create a kaleidoscopic effect.

Upstairs, guest rooms feature a jungle-and-monkey-themed wallcovering from venerable Enlgish wallcovering house Cole and Son, a blue watercolor wallcovering from Feather, and a master bedroom that features a light hearted art work of the Obamas sitting on sandwiches! Watch the video at the bottom of this post for a delightful walk-through of the home hosted by Emmy and Daveed themselves!
