Celebrity House: Reese Witherspoon

All these photographs belong to Reese Witherspoon's house in Ojai, California. The first set appeared in the listing when Reese bought it so by now the decorating must have changed. Interior designer Kathryn Ireland owned this house before Reese and she decorated it in a bohemian style full of colours. You may like one style or the other, or both! Let me know!

Interior Designer Kathryn Ireland

Good morning dear readers. Tomorrow we are starting our winter holidays (yay!) so I'm not sure if I'll be able to post every day as usual. Maybe every other day. I will do my best. Promise.

This 1920s house is the work of architect Roland E. Coate Sr., who designed residences for golden-era Hollywood luminaries such as Barbara Stanwyck and David O. Selznick. Santa Monica-based Kathryn M. Ireland who has a client list that has included Steven Spielberg, Steve Martin and Caroline Kennedy — decorated this five-bedroom Spanish Colonial Revival casa in Palos Verdes Estates which overlooks the ocean. Like to take the tour?


Bougainvillea in bloom.




The designer leaves the walls, as well as the plushly stuffed sofas, a calm off-white: "It's like a blank canvas. And I added a splash of red. It keeps a room lively, buoyant and interesting. It's an important color. A lot of people omit it from their decorating."


Painting by Dana Bartlett. Custom mantle and grate.


An East Indian sunburst mirror rests above the mantlein the living room.


Trestle table and chairs, antique chandelier and 19th century mirror, both Italian.


Oil by Sherrie McGraw over Italian 18th-c. chest. Sconces, circa 1920's.


Dressing room of the master bedroom suite. The same fabric was used for the antique daybed, some of the pillows and window shade. Inlaid side table.


Kitchen island made of antique components from England.


Breakfast room with a Dutch door. Walnut dining table, wicker chairs and custom wooden banquette, all in French-style ticking.





Brick floor outdoors dining area with painted wicker chairs.

I'd like to thank those who took yesterday's quiz and let me know what their results were. It was really quite fun. Hope more of you will take it and tell me your styles!

House tours from Domino

As part of my ongoing series of posts honoring our late friend Domino, I now bestow upon you some lovely house tours we all came to look forward to every month. *sigh* Enjoy.

Mary McDonald's "Tom Jones rock" inspired kitchen. I like the typography plates.


Kathryn Ireland's rustic style home. I love the humble bathroom, and the console in the kitchen with the dishes stowed underneath.



Actress Julianne Moore's stab at interior decorating. I like some of the choices she made - not all my style, but still pretty. I like the piece of drift wood on the radiator.


A rebuilt green home in New Orleans.


Domino style director Dara's lovely white bedroom.









I love Amanda Peet's down-to-earth, bohemian home. It's so ethereal and filled with interesting, meaningful objects. I also love that you can tell that she had a hand in it. She didn't just hire some designer to come in and make it look like a movie star's home.
