Gwyneth

It looks like Gwyneth Paltrow has finally settled into her House of Windsor!  After purchasing the Windsor Smith-designed Bretwood estate in 2012, she finally gives us a tiny glimpse of what she’s done with the place in this cute video with Michael Kors whom she recently launched a fashion collaboration with for her lifestyle site Goop. In the video, we see the pair prepping for the holidays…setting the table, trimming the tree, wrapping presents and preparing festive holiday cocktails. But even more intriguing than watching Gwynnie be domestic, are the little glimpses of that fabulous house that we get …

William Hefner So Haute-2

No one ever said living in California was tough; but combine the breezy lifestyle of the west coast, the thoughtfulness of architect William Hefner and the finesse of his decorator wife Kazuko and you have a heavenly scenario. We recently caught up with William at his Hancock Park home to hear more about his creative process, his body of work and get a tour of his own California home.

Together, William and Kazuko make up Los Angeles based Studio William Hefner, offering clients a fully-integrated design practice with expertise in architecture, interior design and landscape design. Bridging the gap between …

Cindy Sherman AD Collage

The latest issue of Architectural Digest showcases conceptual artist Cindy Sherman’s Hamptons home and I’m totally loving its vibrant and eclectic interiors. I think that I sometimes overuse the word eclectic but that is truly one of the most accurate words to describe this country retreat which features a mix of antiques with provenance, contemporary pieces and flea market finds as well as a broad range of ethnic textiles from diverse origins such as India, Pakistan, Africa, France and Italy. And it’s no surprise that her home also features an abundant art collection consisting of thrift finds placed alongside important …

A former fashion journalist, Carla gave us the scoop on her life as a designer and dished on a few of her favorite things… We

Veranda July Aug cover

The latest project from interior designer Windsor Smith is featured on the July/August 2013 cover of Veranda and being that we’re big fans of hers here at So Haute, the team at Veranda offered us a sneak peek of the story and we’re so thrilled to share it with you! For this project, Smith collaborated with architect Steve Gianetti to transform the mid-century home in Brentwood’s Mandeville Canyon where movie Director/Producer Shawn Levy lives with his wife and four daughters and the space is absolutely stunning. The design of the home is decidedly more modern in feel than what we’re …

12_CR Laine So Haute

Attending High Point Market created wonderful opportunities for me to get an introduction to some pretty awesome brands that I previously wasn’t all that familiar with and one of those awesome brands is CR Laine…a family owned, North Carolina based company specializing in stylish, comfortable and colorful upholstery.  I was aware of CR Laine but since they don’t have a New York showroom, I’d never really had an opportunity to see their products in person and I was blown away by all of their showroom. It was full of beautiful furniture in classic silhouettes made fresh with vibrant colors …
