Celebrities’ Favorite Interior Designer

The interior designer Martyn Lawrence Bullard is a favorite of Los Angeles celebrities. Since moving to the Los Angeles from London 19 years ago, he has amassed a list of high-profile clients that includes Elton John, Kid Rock, Cher and Edward Norton, among other notable names.

For those who love boldness in design, Martyn Lawrence Bullard demonstrates his mastery of dramatic environments for a clientele of celebrities. His designs balance the contemporary with the traditional and the ethnic. His celebrity clients’ homes are inspiring in their chic yet sumptuous styles, including Sir Elton John’s disco-luxurious apartment with a python-skin bed, green lacquered walls, and mirrored cabinets; Grey’s Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo’s hip Mediterranean villa in the Hollywood Hills; Cher’s residences-a Moorish palazzo in Malibu and a Beverly Hills Indian fantasy; and Tamara Mellon’s New York City penthouse that dazzles with bold artwork and striking color. With a knack for beautiful and dramatic spaces that don’t sacrifice comfort.

He has published a wonderful book. It oozes both the sensuality and the comfort of Bullard’s designs. Almost every page features glossy color pictures of interiors Bullard has designed for his celebrity clients. Bullard’s palettes range from textured neutrals to sumptuous layers of rich color. The fabulous photographs allow the reader to see all the clever details of the rooms. What makes the designs of this books so accessible, though, is the fact that although the properties are some of the nicest in the world, the scale of most of the rooms are similar to those in many regular people’s homes. Thus, the design techniques are not just eye candy but rather, inspiration for everyone.
