Originally from Rome, Italy, Adriano Balestra is a Los Angeles-based interior designer and collector focusing on high-end residential projects — a devotee of natural textures and patina aging. After establishing Studio Balestra in 2018, Adriano has specialized in antiquities from Japan — a passion born from love and admiration for Japanese culture and Wabi-Sabi aesthetics.
For the past years, Adriano has focused his creativity on curating a gallery centralized on an eclectic mix of antiques from all over the globe. Adriano’s Showroom is located at 6608 Lexington Ave, Los Angeles, California, showcasing unique pieces in an atmosphere of unobtrusive beauty that invites for stillness.
