7 Ingredients For A Hollywood Chic Home

The sun, sea, and Spanish influence of Southern California inspires the colors and patterns of this hillside abode.

1. Wood Paneling

The wood panel ceiling of the couple's living room marks the space with a warm, inviting aesthetic. A large horse sculpture made of old car parts gives the arched window commanding grandeur, while the oversized mirror above the fireplace creates a similar dramatic effect. The room is marked with personality-driven vintage pieces, such as trinket boxes, and a central hanging pendant.

2. Marble

"A focus on quietly luxurious materials lends a gently indulgent feel," says Taylor. In the kitchen, crisp white marble runs along the perimeter of the space, which is made light, spacious, and airy by the solid white cabinetry. The far wall is textured with wood-effect wallpaper and industrial metal pendants highlight the generous length of the central wooden table.

3. Studded, Glamorous Wallpaper

Borrowing from the glamour of Hollywood, the formal dining room's midnight-blue wallpaper broods in style. Brass studs adorn the wallpaper covering all four walls. A vintage lamp and mirrored console unit dressed in silverware supplement the lavish style, and the dark hardwood floors and wooden paneled ceilings draw the intimate space inwards.

4. Statement Glass Lighting

Hollywood Chic style embodies dramatic décor, and the ideal place for drama is the formal dining room. "As this is a space used less frequently than say, a bedroom or a living room, you can afford to have fewer parameters around your approach to the décor," says Taylor. In Jesse and Justin's dining space, a statement pendant made of grouped glass bells gives presence and pomp to the below table.

Meanwhile, vintage-style brass wall lights contrast dramatically with the dark navy wallpaper. Long and luxurious window curtains cushion the windows, shouldered by symmetrical mirrored consoles and side lamps.

5. Spanish Tiles

Intricately detailed Spanish tiles are a hallmark of Southern California style. In the home's library, the rich pink-red floor tiling complements a tightly buttoned ochre leather sofa and brass floor lamp, channeling an indulgent Spanish Colonial style.

6. Intense Turquois and Midnight Blue

To maximize their outdoor space, Jesse and Justin took inspiration from the surrounding nature: The azure blue color of the pool's waters and the sunny sky is mirrored in the Spanish pool tiling. Throughout the rest of the outdoor space, window frames and doors are also splashed with azure blue, and succulents dress the area in lush green.

7. Brass Touches and Club Chairs

In the library room, a pair of brown leather armchairs face a tufted tan leather sofa in the reading area. A brass bar cart lends a touch of luxury, echoing the two reading lamps.
