Gwyneth Paltrow’s Home

theLennoxx — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 17:12:15 +0000

I think it is really fascinating to look into the homes of the rich and famous, as they have all the means to create the perfect home. This time we will take a look into actress Gwyneth Paltrow’s Long Island home. So here we go:

This is our actress in her gorgeous living room. Gwyneth obviously like her home light and classic with pops of pastels. On a side note, I adore her dress!

Here is another view of the living room. The cool blue sofas are balanced with warm pops of fuchsia.

This staircase in very simple and modern, but the wallpaper adds a warmer more “liveable” atmosphere than if it was left white.

Gwyneth has pale floors all over her home.

This dining room is the epitome of simple romantic design. The Swarovski blossom chandelier is available here for those of you who can afford it. It is $27,350.00.

This is Gwyneth’s daughter Apple’s bedroom. In keeping with the rest of the house, this bedroom is light and airy, with splashes of fuchsia for a girly princess look.

The kitchen has matte black cabinets and beige tiling.

Two white chandeliers adds a bit of glamour over the kitchen island, and makes a great contrast to the black cabinets.

Pin Up Chic

Ben Huckerby Design is behind these modern pin up chic interiors:

This living room gives me serous new years eve party vibes. It must be the black and white with the hints of metallic. Not to mention the champagne colored couch.

A closer look at the wall art. I wonder why it was not placed directly behind the sofa?

A very tall headboard padded with gray velour and purple teffeta throw pillows adds a bit of glam to this simple bedroom. Is it just me or is purple the ultimate color of glam?

Isn’t that Madonna in the print? You can order photography prints of your favorite stars here!

This hallway has a feature wall of black and silver wallpaper with framed Marilyn Monroe prints.

Black and silver (err.. steel) is also the color scheme in this ultra modern kitchen. What do you think of glossy kitchen cabinets? Very bold wallpaper indeed!

Dramatic Apartment Bedroom

This modern apartment bedroom is designed by Beth Whitlinger and is done in a black and white theme:

Rooms that have a black and white theme often has white walls. I love how Beth chose a subtle beige instead, making the white details really pop!

On the wall opposite of the bed, Beth placed a desk. Disguised as a framed print is a flat screen TV! I really like how she created a very simple vignette on the desk. The objects cutting off some of the TV frame gives the impression of art instead of TV.

Hello Yellow!

Black and white bedroom with yellow accents. The wallpaper is a bit busy.

Cream colored sofa in a white living room. The room is accessorized with black and yellow.

Would you consider a half round sofa like this? Looks cool, but it would require a room of a certain size…

Glossy white dining table with black chairs. I haven’t met anyone who has yellow doors!

Fun wallpaper.

Splendia

I love checking out hotel rooms (no pun intended) for design inspiration. Here are some ultra modern picks from the luxury hotel listing at Splendia:

Fuchisa and White:

White bedroom with Fuchsia carpet, curtains and feature wall.

Love the big floor mirror, even the frame is pink. And from the reflection in the mirror you can see the headboard is actually pink plexi glass.

Black and Gold:

This white bedroom has a gold leaf feature wall, and behind the bed is a shiny black headboard that extends to behind the bedside tables.

A closer look at the bed.

A black framed version of the floor mirror in the former room. This one even has sconces mounted on it.

White, Pink and Orange:

Pink and orange is usually one of my favorite color combos (aren’t they all?), but this one is a bit limp..

Curtains go all the way from ceiling down to the floor to make the room look taller.

I didn’t even realise the Barcelona chair came in orange!

Spicy Bedroom

theLennoxx — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 17:30:44 +0000

White bedroom with a rich brown fond wall and a super tall orange padded headboard. The headboard is framed by two equally tall mirrors.

By the window is a tiny seating area with a round table and two classic chairs. The brown and orange upholstery on the chairs fits in perfectly with the room.

Master bathroom is all done in a black matte tile. The freestanding tub is back.

A sneak peek of the toilet and sink. All the mirrors are built into the wall with the tiles. Very simple.

Funky Designs by Anne Coyle

Time for some funky designs by interior designer Anne Coyle:

Black and white striped wallpaper adds an element of fun to this living room. The gray velour sofa looks super soft!

Now this is what I would call a Funky bed! Black bedroom with pink velour bed and smoky green bedside tables! Oh, and how about that black and white zig-zag floor?!

A flat screen TV blends in with picture frames of various shapes and sizes. A plexi glass shelving unit acts as a magazine library.

Cozy bedroom seating area consisting of a corner sectional couch and a super low octagonal coffee table.

Black and White Bedroom

theLennoxx — Sat, 24 Oct 2009 23:52:16 +0000

Super hot black and white bedroom by designer Tracy Murdock. The walls are painted a matte black, and white rectangles are built in to add some drama:

The white frames on each side of the bed serves as a mirror frame. The bed looks hot, love the Greek key pattern.

Looks like regular desk laps in the bed. Could it be?

Bedroom seating area.

Some purple orchids adds a little color.

Crazy Colorful!

You know this is going to be a fun experience when the entry door is decorated with huge metal peacocks!

White living room with polished black floor and a gold (!) ceiling. The room is accented with the complimentary color pair orange and blue.

Hot doorway!

The details of this window are so pretty! Comes through perfectly with the black and white color scheme.

Super dramatic black bedroom with shiny white floors. Bedside lamps mounted on the ceiling is a great solution for a tiny bedroom.

The white iron patio furniture is covered with multi colored- and patterned cushions. LOL at the birdcage in the sun umbrella! Hippie chic?

Pretty Pattern Dining room

theLennoxx — Sun, 20 Sep 2009 09:14:09 +0000

Take a look at this multi patterned dining room designed by Sherrill Canet. This room is breaking just about all the rules of pattern combination, and it works surprisingly well!

Small, high contrast pattern on both walls and floor. Zebra mirror frame over the fireplace, and pattern-paintings on the wall! The room is accented with yellow, and even the ceiling got that note.

Same room with different chairs. I love this horn dining table. Impressing!

You can see these and more designs on Sherrill Canet’s website here!
