Star interior designers spend most of their time catering to clients’ tastes, which means it’s always a treat to see what happens when they work on a dwelling for themselves, no holds barred. So, when Nate Berkus opened his California home to EyeSwoon founder Athena Calderone for a photo op, I couldn’t take a look fast enough.
The decorator, TV personality, and author shares the 1930s bungalow with his new husband, interior designer Jeremiah Brent. And just as you might imagine a home occupied – and outfitted – by two massively talented designers to be, it’s a study in seriously cool style. The couple chose a muted palette to let their favorite decorative objects and personal touches stand out, but color isn’t entirely absent from their abode. A retro-style range in seafoam green sits front and center in the kitchen, where the floor is covered in black, white, and green tile. Throughout the space, leather, marble, wood, and metals mix together to create a combination of textures that’s downright dreamy. Happily for the duo, it’s one dream from which they never have to wake up.
