We’re visiting Dawnridge, the legendary Beverly Hills home of Tony Duquette, preserved and reimagined by designer, jeweler, and author Hutton Wilkinson.

Built in 1949 as a tiny 900-square-foot house on a ravine, Dawnridge became a dazzling world of painted ceilings, mirrored rooms, jeweled objects, theatrical gardens, and stories from Hollywood’s golden age.

After working with Tony since he was 17, Hutton purchased the house after Tony’s death to save its life, carrying forward a legacy of fantasy, invention, and fearless decoration.

This place is a fantasia museum. Hope it is preserved along with every story behind every object. Thank you for sharing this video.

This is my favorite house of all time. Thank you for keeping its integrity, Hutton.

Hutton is a walking decorative arts encyclopedia.

How lucky we are to have Hutton Wilkinson give us a personalized tour of Dawnridge, and tell us of his memorable experiences anchored in old Hollywood. The property is absolutely captivating, a true imaginarium.

This puts everything I have ever seen design wise, in the dust. I am absolutely speechless….😮❤

You can go down a great rabbit hole with this. The art of Tony Duquette, Beegle and Elsie de Wolfe. Lots of wild crazy stories.

This is Absolutely Extraordinary. I didn't realize I have about 200 more passion projects that I MUST complete in my lifetime. Thank you Hutton, Tony and Homeworthy!

I'm going to sleep after this in hopes that I'll dream of this house and garden

I have long been fascinated by Elsie de Wolf and Tony Duquette. Hutton is delightful - love his stories, humor and he's incredibly smart, talented, and how wonderful of him taking very good care of the Duquette house. This was truly a treat, a joy to watch! Thank You!

My all-time favorite designer EVER. What a wonderful home tour!!! The Duquette books don't do this place justice.

I had the great pleasure of meeting Mr. Wilkinson years ago at a book signing he did in Atlanta. What a lovely, elegant man. And such a raconteur, I could listen for hours to his stories of Mr. Duquette.

They don’t make them like him anymore. Thank you for documenting this. Truly fabulous.

What a work of art, it really should be turned into a museum

@ciganyweaverandherperiwink6293 3 months ago

Just imagine what it must feel like as a hardworking creative person to have a 'Hutton Wilkinson' in your life. Wow.

I don't think I have ever seen anything like this before. It's breathtaking. Love it all.

What a wonderful steward of that home and creative legacy Mr. Wilkinson is. Love the emerald Doris Duke sofa...and I'll be using the phrase "drop-dead decorating" during my next fit of design frustration. More is more!
