Legend and Teigen’s former home is different than most. An Architectural Digest feature reports when the couple lived here they wanted it to reflect their “chic and tailored but also earthy and casual” sensibility. To achieve this they hired Don Stewart of the L.A. firm Desiderata Design.

Stewart created more privacy by building a new garage made of “Cor-Ten–steel panels and a specially commissioned bronze entry gate etched with an Asian village scene. A sculptural stairway of concrete in smooth and rough finishes leads from the curb to the front landing, which is framed by a balustrade of white oak and steel.”

The interior was stripped down to the studs and reconfigured. Highlighted by beamed and vaulted ceilings the public areas are now one open living/dining/kitchen space.
