Leo's is an institution. I thought there was only one truck on Venice and La Brea but turns out they have eight across LA. Watching them slice pork and pineapple in one fell swoop is both drool-inducing and an art form. Open til 3am most nights I think.
Enoteca boasts the best gnocchi around. It’s seriously heaven, ie, it will literally melt in your mouth like some kind of delicious science experiment.
I believe that jewelry should be a characteristic of the wearer; as distinct and individual as the person who wears it.
Always earthy and metal prominent, my form of design is to present a contemporary take on traditional items. Whether the project is to repurpose inherited pieces, design a custom item, or simply add to our collection, the process is very intentional.
Since Sustainability and small-scale production is my main focus, our pieces are never mass-produced or ready to ship and I take pride in the intimacy of creating made to order pieces.
I am Aiqi Zhang. I love seeing what happens in the extremes, it is also the way I deal with graphic design. Currently, I’m prototyping in all dimensions. With each project, I look for ways to bring my work into a spatial and digital world, allowing people to experience it in new and exciting ways. My desire is to create a multidisciplinary practice with no boundaries.
