Tony Duquette’s Dawnridge

- Hutton Wilkinson Abrams

Wilkinson bought designer Duquette’s Beverly Hills home after Duquette’s death in 1999, chroniclin­g its expansion from a tiny box house into an expansive estate still filled with items picked by and created by Duquette and his wife, Elizabeth. It’s quirky and chic and comfy all at the same time. Have a look at the Monkey Room, a glassed-in porch overlookin­g the garden. Duquette used it as storage and Wilkinson brought it to life. There’s the signature Duquette leopard-print carpet on the staircase leading down to the summer and guest bedrooms. ($72)
