House on Genesee LA

Posted by & filed under News.

Genesee is a place where art, design and fashion briefly converge in space and time. Located in a pistachio-colored 1920s neoclassical house, located in West Hollywood’s Spaulding Square, the setting is a contemporary investigation of the classical salon. Neither showroom, nor store, Genesee is a collective of artists, designers, architects, writers, and thinkers who seek to understand what it means to produce in these times.

No surprise to find them stocking a selection of some of the Underground boots including the Blitz Boot and the Western Buckle. Go take a look
