Sophia Bush’s Hollywood Oasis

Pushing away from white walls and the use of typical boho furniture, Studio John Sharp brought in inspiration from the 70’s  earth tone palettes and minerals, books and collections found in mid-century Eames homes, as well as the curved lines of the 60’s and glam expression of Post Modern style and flair.

Together, layer by layer,  at the intersection of design - through color, cacti, and curve, they created a reflective Case Study home.

Thus far, the project has been seen on SNL’s Chloe Fineman Architectural Digest Open Door: Quarantine Edition and was featured as  DOMINO Home Tour January 2021.

When Studio John Sharp first met with Writer Jordan Firstman to reimagine the interiors of his Dion Neutra’s ‘Treetop’ suite they envisioned a space inspired by high glam 80’s corruption and the neon lights of freestyle nightclub disco dancing, that would still properly represent the cutting edge of the here and now.

Friends before collaborators, Jordan and John both saw exciting professional growth during 2020. As a way to forever hold that moment in time, they sought a collaboration with the aim to create a celebratory portal into something fresh with feeling.

With the intention of creating a space perfect for Jordan’s widely appreciated ‘Impressions,’ each part of the home was activated and designed as a backdrop to drop into another world.

Conceptualized as a site-specific installation, Studio John Sharp hand-sourced a plethora of monolithic art moments that around every corner showcase surprise after surprise.

Underneath John Lautner’s 1962 architectural spacecraft, unique hand-sourced dreamy  botanicals are sprouting -  layering  down the side of the canyon in an assortment of  shady ancient leaf specimens to full-sun desert cactus and agave rarities. Mythologically placed to unfold with time,  each plant family is designed to  hatch into massive, whimsical sculptures framing the house to the earth. Custom-designed art  installations inspire conceptualized story-telling of lost planets and primitive  shapes jutting up from the solid ground.
