For designer Cliff Fong, serenity is found in a simple, sustainable lifestyle. Nowhere is this more evident than in the 1953 ranch-style house he moved into four years ago in a quiet neighborhood in Central Los Angeles.

Here, Fong, the principal behind the Los Angeles design firm Matt Blacke, followed the visual vocabulary he often employs in his projects, mixing vintage Scandinavian and French masterworks with understated yet luscious floor coverings, contemporary art, and family heirlooms that tell a story.
