Gwyneths New Diggs


Take a look at Gwyneth Paltrow's new Diggs! Just purchased in Los Angeles with her husband Chris Martin from Coldwell Banker agent Mary Lu Tuthill. I'm sure her designer has already been called in to start the   design process to taylor make for Gwen and her family. 

They already own a swanky multi-million dollar town house in London, but now, Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin have now splashed their cash on a sizeable new base in Los Angeles.
The celebrity couple have forked out $10.45million on the six bedroom, eight bathroom home which is described by TMZ as being located on the 'westside' of the city.
The whitewashed home was only built last year and was listed at a whopping $11.96 million in September.



The home was built on 'sprawling grounds' and lined with 'shady sycamores' according to the website, and even has a stable. 
With six bedrooms, the couple's children Paltrow Apple, eight, and six-year-old Moses will have space for their own rooms. 
And the asking price will be small change for the couple, who were this year reported to have a net worth of $114 million, according to the Sunday Times 2012 Rich List.

Design Elements, Home, ETC.





The challenge of decorating and bringing furniture and accent elements  becomes too confusing. Distinguishing between items we love and what will work best in the space requires some research!  Remember very large pieces of furniture will make a small room look even smaller.  Keep it simple and easy on the eye!  Take some time to find just the right piece for your space and hopefully it will be well designed and functional!
