What is a Mondo Lounge?

Everything you love in ONE Place and Time: Sophisticated, classy, fun, high-brow, vintage vendors and top notch talent circa 1957-1963. Think of Playboy’s Penthouse or or a Blake Edwards movie ala The Party or an awesome party scene from Mad Men.

What Mondo Lounge is Not?

Surf, rockabilly, tattoos, low brow, 1930s style, 1970s style, burlesque, hot rods and rock n’roll. (Not that there’s anything wrong with those genres, but there are plenty o’events that cover those communities).

This event is specifically for the Swanksters, baby!

Mondo Lounge was initially inspired by the members of The Lotta Living Community


Lotta Livin' is an online community created by Mary-Margaret Stratton that brings together fans of Mid Century Modern design, architecture and lifestyle with the ultimate goal of historic preservation through this shared love of all things vintage. The Lotta Living community began in 1999 as an outreach of the Los Angeles Conservancy Modern Committee and now reaches to thousands of MidMod enthusiasts from across the country.
