Dabito, Old Brand New (Is Back)
Dabito, Old Brand New (Is Back)
This week my interview is going to be a little different because I am starting a spring/summer interview series all about home renovations. I am currently working on an exclusive home tour with Better Homes & Gardens magazine for 2022, and I want to share renovation stories from tastemakers like Dabito around renovation stories in rental properties as well as homes. I also wanted to dig into what was it like to be an interior stylist for the third book with Justina Blakeney, Jungalow Decorate Wild.
This is also my second interview with Dabito so if you want to learn more about his journey into the interior design industry listen here.
Dabito is a blogger, photographer, artist, décor guru, tastemaker, passionate vintage hunter, and lover of all things design. As the force behind the creative studio and online design resource, Old Brand New, he has not only won an impressive social media following, but has been recognized by major outlets including Nylon, who named him one of the best Instagrammers, and Better Homes and Gardens, who included him in their Best Decorating Bloggers of 2015.
This week instead of an interior design game, I decided to dissect one of Dabito’s designs, his dining banquette which you can see above. You can read the inspiration for this space on Dabito’s blog. I have been obsessed with the design ever since we moved into our new home because I felt like we had the same type of layout. Also I don’t know about you, but I feel like since Covid happened last year, I really miss going out to restaurants and sitting in a booth; so when I saw Dabito’s space it made me feel like I was having a fine dining experience at home.
If this space is giving you all of the feels like it did for me, check out this week’s shoppable mood board around how you can get a similar look and re-create in your home (you can have the Dabify effect!).
