Custom stone furniture creator [Form](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/perforated-steel-furniture)(LA) has just opened its [first flagship store location](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-luxury) in Los Angeles. The space is defined by the pivoting marble door accented by the nine porthole windows. The store is nestled in a historic West Hollywood building that dates back almost a century. The founder of the brand, Jordan Mosslar started designing and converting the space into a showroom back in March 2022.

He shared with Dezeen, "Because we were renovating a large, 90-year-old building, there were many unexpected surprises that required us to adjust our original plans and re-design elements on the fly." The interior space was inspired by a modern Italian design with [warm textures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/estilio) and a playful aesthetic.
