BADD HOUSE
A Historic Sunset Strip Landmark Reimagined for Elevated Events
ABOUT
Perched just above the iconic Sunset Strip, BADD HOUSE occupies one of the most storied addresses in Los Angeles. Once home to the original Spago, Wolfgang Puck's legendary restaurant that helped define Hollywood dining and culture in the 1980s and 1990s, this extraordinary event venue has been thoughtfully revived as a creative destination for a new generation.
Like the former Tower Records across the street, the original Spago space remained dormant for nearly two decades. In 2024, the Dardo Group, together with internationally recognized artist and designer Mattia Biagi, Andrew Wilson, and Darrin Wilson, embarked on an ambitious vision to restore the energy, creativity, and cultural significance of this historic Sunset Strip location.
The result is a unique multidisciplinary environment where art, design, fashion, entertainment, and culture intersect. Today, the building is home to a curated community of creative businesses, including an award-winning interior design studio, an internationally renowned tattoo artist, and a luxury grooming salon.
