DESIGN ADAC Keynote Event: The Sanctuary of Nature: Indoors and Out

The natural world is at the center of good design. This panel will explore the critical role that the local environment plays in shaping thoughtful, beautiful spaces that stand the test of time.

Los Angeles interior designer Peter Dunham and landscape architect Patricia Benner, also based in Los Angeles, will join Veranda Executive Editor Ellen McGauley to discuss the powerful role landscape and natural materials play in the buildings and rooms we create, and their collaborations together.

Following the presentation, please join Dunham, Benner, and McGauley at the Kolo Collection showroom for a reception and signing of Dunham’s book, "The World of Peter Dunham: Global Style from Paris to Hollywood”—along with highlights of Sunbrella’s outdoor upholstery products across partners.
