Dining Room in the Home of Joan Didion and John Gregory Dunne, Vogue

The dining room in the Malibu, California, home of writer Joan Didion and novelist John Gregory Dunne. The Federal era drop leaf dining room table that belonged to Dunne's great-grandmother is surrounded by Hitchcock chairs, with a peacock wicker chair at the head of the table. The strip of floral applique by the window was made by Didion's great-great-great-grandmother as part of a quilt. A large black and white landscape photograph hangs on the wall; the floor is terracotta Mexican tile; potted plants sit around the room.
