It’s no secret that I share some style loves with Diane Keaton.

We both love weathered metal, factory pendants, obviously stacks of books and magazines, Navajo rugs, vintage signs and Bauer pottery.

Her favorite fashion designer, also happens to be my favorite fashion designer.

I’ve shared a couple of her homes before, but this new one really blew my mind….so much to love here. I’m more than a little obsessed.

What did I tell ya?

Amazeballz, right?

Diane created a space that feels both old and new at the same time.

For the first time, she used Pinterest to create inspiration boards for the build and decor. Then chronicled the journey in her newest book The House that Pinterest Built. I’ve been addicted to Pinterest for years.

Don’t get too attached to this house though, Diane never does. If her history serves as an example, I guarantee this one will be on the market within a year and she will be on to her next house project.

And I already can’t wait to see it….

Ryan Murphy in Diane Keaton’s House

A while back we wrote about Diane Keaton’s amazing California Romantic house.

Since Jamie and I couldn’t come up with the nearly 11 Million to buy it, someone else beat us to the punch.

The Tom Ford wearing, Co-Creator of Glee, Ryan Murphy.

Ryan did a great job of personalizing the whole space. I think he may have actually made it “warmer”, most certainly more masculine.

I’m still crazy about those ceiling lights in the kitchen.

Here’s a shot with a little more color in the pottery. Although Diane declined Ryan’s offer to buy the house furnished, she allowed him to photograph the furniture so he could replicate the pieces himself. That’s her kitchen table, one of the few pieces she did part with.

My absolute favorite part of the kitchen now is the CALIFORNIA letters over the built-in floating shelves. I can never have enough old signage. We have “AMERICAN” in the master bedroom, “RATS” in the den, and soon to hang “PHARMACY” in the garage.

The bedroom got a slightly more modern look as well…..

Ryan searched like a man obsessed (I’m sure it was an assistant of some sort doing the actual work) to find an almost exact replica of Diane’s green day bed in the library.

These are just a few of my favorite pictures from the Hollywood Reporter article, you can read more, and see a slide show with more pictures, on the page.

I’ve had a fascination with Diane Keaton’s style for years.

Not only is the Oscar winner a Hollywood icon, she has also been praised for her work as a California architectural preservationist.

Here is a sampling of her 1927 Ralph Flewelling home she recently put on the market. I dug around on the internets and found quite a few pictures.

We actually do these same lights around our roof-line every December.

Check out the entrance…..it leads right into my favorite room, the ceramic tiled library.

“The Eye Sees What the Mind Knows” circles the vaulted ceiling. Beautiful

Here’s the view into the dining room. You better belive that I will be making a RED 3 just like that one very soon.

The kitchen just blows me away. How Cool are those whip-stitched lights?

I’m a collector of California pottery too. Never thought of grouping it by color though.

The house has 7 bedrooms and 9 bathrooms. Only 2 of which I could find a pictures of. Here’s the Master bedroom.

and another bedroom, with bright California pottery.

The Living room ceiling is Heavenly as well…

Vintage metal motel chairs encircle a pair of wooden folding tables on the patio.

…and the office with the doors to the central courtyard and fountain. Pretty sure that I need to have that clock.

It’s simply amazing, I know.

Great news. This spectacular home was recently purchased by Glee Co-Creator Ryan Murphy who re-styled it to match his own masculine style. (As if there was anything feminine about it in the first place)

He was even inspired by the interiors for the sets of his new show “The New Normal”. Jamie can verify that I really do pause the show to look at the sets.

Perhaps a post with a few recent pictures will be coming soon….

Stay Tuned….
