To connect the inside with the outside, Moises Esquenazi created a series of living areas in his Los Angeles backyard, including this cabana with a daybed that echoes the colors he used in the interior of his bungalow. The natural fiber pillows and the blue squares are from RL Home; striped and print pillows are by Trina Turk.

In the living room, eras and styles were mixed for a "worldly, intimate look." The 1920s sofa is only 5 1/2 feet; he thought a larger sofa would overwhelm the small room. Donghia club chairs are handwoven peeled wicker over a handcarved merbau wood frame. The ottoman functions as a bookcase, of sorts. Red tilt-top lamps are from Fantasy Lighting.

Orange, white, and blue are the colors Esquenazi repeatedly used inside and outside, beginning at the entry — which he designed to be "chic and dramatic." Red tip hedges give the bungalow more privacy.

A vintage Suzani and pillows designed by Esquenazi add a vibrant punch to the neutral sofa. A tray from TableArt holds flowers in a Williams-Sonoma silver tub; the orange and white dish is Balcons du Guadalquivir porcelain from Hermès.

Big color works in a small space: Benjamin Moore's Newburg Green on the guest room walls plays off fabrics in hot tropical colors. Esquenazi silver-leafed a wooden deer head to give the room a "sprinkling of out-there embellishment."
