Murray Moss, the influential owner of the uber trendy Moss design store in New York, has just opened Moss in LA. Located on Melrose Avenue, Moss has some pretty good company; its near Paul Smith, the Pacific Design Center, and Marc Jacobs. While the New York store is all about sleek minimalism, the LA showroom has gone pure Hollywood. The 4,000-square-foot store will showcase limited-edition exhibitions. Right now, the exhibit is Glitter & Smoke, which includes a 1938 Steinway baby grand piano which has been charred by a blowtorch, as well as 18 chandeliers designed by Georg Baldele for Swarovski Crystal Palace.
