Vibrant Retreat
From a distinctive setting to carefully chosen pieces, our homes say a lot about who we are.
The Welcome Home series is our chance to ask inspiring people how they created a space they love.
Cult LA designer Beatrice Valenzuela appreciates small pleasures, from long baths—cocktail in hand—to making
meals for friends and family. “I love to cook for many hours when possible while listening to a great book or inspiring music,”
says the Mexico-born mother of two.
How to Make it:
Start by rinsing your fish in cool water and patting it dry with paper towel. Douse it in olive oil, season it with sea salt and pepper, and fill it with lemon rounds and fresh herbs, as well as a few garlic and onion slices. Rinse your fig leaves and wrap your fish with care, then tie it all together with cotton twine like a perfect little parcel.
Drizzle once more with olive oil and grill for 6–15 minutes depending on the size of your fish. When it’s ready, cut the twine and enjoy with roasted tomatoes and a fresh seasonal salad.
