Ancora Osteria

Ancora Osteria in Montecito.

We had the pleasure of working with Chef Luca Crestanelli and his team to bring Ancora to life in Montecito’s Upper Village.

The space was designed to feel as though it had always been, warm, collected, and timeless, with old-world Italian influences and a relaxed California sensibility. We leaned into aged materials, warm plaster, vintage lighting and decor, handmade walnut furniture, and layered details to give Ancora a sense of timelessness and character.

A special project and one we are so happy to finally share, Now open!

When I wrote El Bohemio Dorado, I felt a bit cliché comparing it to events in my life. But Zach's story has truly sent me back to soul-nourishing memories, encounters and people that lit a fire in me to create and express myself, and that continue to shape my art/voice today.
Then at some point I had to "grow up", date 🤮, and adopted beliefs about how life "should be" that caused that fire to fizzle...but thanks to this story and the blessings that have come through it, that fire is burning brightly again. We are gonna hold it down for Zach to stay bold and keep making art that reminds us that life is indeed full of magic, whimsy and fellow weirdos/community that inspire and guides us. 🤘🏽🧚🏽‍♂️🧚🧚🏾‍♀️🧙💖💫🎆🪄🪩❤️‍🔥 #keeperoftheflame ❤️‍🔥

A wrap on Mt. Mystic 🗻🏔️✨

I searched the dictionary for the most beautiful word - one to describe this experience and these people. Turns out to describe the intangible can be a little ineffable. Turns out there is not one word but many: Crystalline. Effervescent. Ephemeral. Halcyon. Idyllic. Labrynth. Luminous. Love. Opulent. Petrichor. Ripple. Sempiternal. Poetic. Unconditional. Wondrous. Zoetic.

So many words and yet not enough. I even tried to look up the word that defines the feeling of meeting every single person you’ll ever love in one lifetime.

What word did I find, you ask? Lucky.

May a love or a word or a place like Mt. Mystic find you. I am so lucky it found me.

(Including, but not limited to: Seth doing the most cartoon of farts when playing basketball one off day… it is the funniest fart I’ve ever heard, I think?

And then there’s @kellyangell__ ‘s angelic voice that I want to make a blanket out of.

Anyway, you get it.)

Until next time, Los Angeles.
