LAURA STRADER

@blancobungalow

Laura’s background is in the fashion and design industry. In 2015, she created her jewelry brand, Turquoise + Tobacco, and quickly gained a loyal following, gracing the shelves of high-end boutiques worldwide. Her love for interiors ignited when she transformed the couple’s California Spanish Bungalow into an urban oasis, and creating the brand, Blanco Bungalow. The project earned her the role of contributor in Sunset Magazine, features in Dwell, My Domaine, Apartment Therapy and more. She went on to study interior design at Parsons The New School. In every space she touches, she captures the California laid-back style, breathing life, light, and relaxation back into the space. Her dream has always been to have a little farm with guest houses and horses by the sea.
