A Collected 450 sq ft Los Angeles Apartment

Step into the charming, sun-drenched Los Angeles apartment of Lindsay O'Brien, Head of Art & Home at Etsy.com.

Nestled in a 450-square-foot space in a 1920s building, Lindsay's apartment is a perfect reflection of her collected, storied, and playful design aesthetic. Lindsay stumbled upon the apartment through an unassuming Craigslist listing, but she was drawn to its unique potential—and it didn’t disappoint.

Initially keeping the décor minimal to let the architectural bones and beautiful finishes shine, Lindsay spent the past year thoughtfully infusing personality and vibrancy into the space. Her love for 1970s interiors is evident in her mix of vintage treasures, eclectic Etsy finds, and handcrafted décor. Every corner tells a story, from flea market scores to pieces she lovingly created herself. Enjoy!
