Sophia Bush’s Hollywood home is stunningly eclectic. Domain Home had a fabulous spread of her relaxed yet high-styled home in Los Angeles. It’s truly a testament how good design need not follow a specific style and that a home should ultimately reflect the person who lives there.
Some people have an amazing knack when it comes to putting together a home filled with what outwardly appears mismatched. Take some of these rooms for example.
Normally, most people would think you were insane if you told them you were planning to mix mid-century and 19th century furniture and toss in some tribal, Native American followed by a light dusting of contemporary accents.
Huh? Somehow it truly works. In order for it to look chic there are some takeaways from this house. Most of the wood tones and leather have a warm hue, and perch beautifully on Oriental and Tribal rugs that are found throughout the home. The soft touches are balanced by some metal like iron floor lamps and crisp dark frames.
The soft wood tones are carried into the dining room and essentially throughout. Contemporary and quirky lighting are a counterpoint to the overall design scheme and keeps things visually interesting.
Organic elements abound in this home which could result in something a tad too hippie, however, this space is truly elegant. The modern kitchen ceiling lights and bedside swing arms are coupled with warm toned, simple woods to create balance and harmony, as does pairing a Mission-style stool with a clean coffee table and minimalist artwork. Sheer genius.
Here are some ideas on how to get the electric LA look:
1. Keep things visually interesting with the Set of 2 Bedouin Textural Red and Ochre Throw Pillows.
2. Create a modernist pop with the Jonathan Adler Rio Patina Bronze Pendant Light over your kitchen island.
3. A touch of the 50s can be easily had with the Jonathan Adler Ventana Collection Floor Lamp.
4. I want the Robert Abbey Rico Espinet Buster Globe Brass Table Lamp on every table in my house.
5. The Jamie Young Large Square Buff Leather Ottoman is funky and functional.
6. The Berrenger Adjustable Antique Brass Pharmacy Floor Lamp is timeless and is the perfect reading light.
