ONLY THE WILD ONES

VENICE, CALIFORNIA

Located directly next door to the flagship location of The Butcher’s Daughter on Abbot Kinney, Only The Wild Ones is a natural wine and cocktail bar inspired from old-world heritage. The design features soothing natural elements: birch wood poles line the face of the bar, woven macrame adorn hanging globe lights and the ceiling is covered with large spit-reed bamboo from Morocco. The space’s former life as a bank meant that an vault could not be moved - now it’s a natural wine shop featuring monthly art exhibitions. Color is used to match the hues of rose and orange wines, such as blush textiles sourced from differnt regions around Africa. A rose-gold disco ball hangs in the center of the ceiling to capture the glow of the sunset - when glittering amber light is scattered around the room.
