For Domino’s Megan West, the head of brand and creative studio, the past year has had her longing for an open-format living room that would celebrate unencumbered living, from reading and relaxing to connecting with friends. Drawing inspiration from the Eames Case Study House 8 and Ray Kappe’s residence, both in Los Angeles, West shares her most calming living room picks, in her own words.
