Hollywood Homes…the lighter side of design
Every once in awhile, I like to take a break from the business of design and peruse the lighter side of the industry, and with Hollywood virtually in my backyard, it’s a relatively easy journey.

Public figures are a part of the Los Angeles culture and real estate is no exception. They love real estate and beautiful interiors and we are fortunate to be able to get a glimpse into some of their fabulous homes. I enjoy seeing how other people live in their space, perusing the photos and looking at the interior design and layout of each one.
Courtney Cox is one person who comes to mind when I think of ‘stars’ and ‘interior design’. She has amazing taste and has purchased and flipped several homes in the Malibu area over the past 10 years or so.

Great kitchen for a party!
I know where I would be at the end of the day!
Jennifer Aniston is known for being naturally beautiful, down-to-earth and also a very savvy lady when it comes to real estate. She recently purchased a contemporary Bel Air home

Ben Stiller recently sold his Los Angeles area home. I love the casual, comfortable, updated Spanish style of this property.

We may not all be Hollywood A-Listers, however good design is within reach and we can all enjoy beautiful, comfortable A-list living!
