Known for her enthusiasm and impeccable eye, Leslie creates unique spaces for each of her clients based on their individual tastes and style. This personal touch, accompanied by her professionalism, has added to her rapidly growing residential design business, which has also expanded into restaurants, country clubs and corporate offices. BRENTWOOD After designing a cafe for her best friend in Santa Monica, Leslie began working on her friend’s home, gutting the interior to make it more cohesive for a family of four. The courtyard and back house provide an ideal place for entertaining and taking advantage of the gorgeous Southern California weather. A fountain original to the property provides a quaint focal point for the outdoor dining area. A flag photograph by Oberto Gili purchased through Nathan Turner in Los Angeles inspired the red, white and blue palette. A variety of patterned pillows found at the Rose Bowl Flea Market play off of the stripes and colors in the artwork. This play on patterns creates a story in many of Hunt’s interiors.  16 PEACHYTHEMAGAZINE.COM
