Ever since Brooke and Steve Gianetti shared this house in their newest book, Patina Homes, I have loved this house! But now you can see it featured in this month’s Veranda Magazine! Photos by Lisa Romerein.

Look at this beautiful living room! I love it all! Come style my house.

The house exterior is lovely! The shutters are Farrow and Ball French Grey. I love the landscaping!

Their living room is right ”on trend” with their color schemes. Remember that I wrote cognac and cinnamon browns were coming in with greens? Well, voila! However, these are really quite timeless looks. I love the antique tapestry! Swoon!!

A look at the living room from another direction. I love the indoor/outdoor living space that California is famous for. I love how the beams are on the inside and outside.

This kitchen is so light and airy! I love the windows right behind the range. I have never seen that before. I love the lantern pendants too.

I love this formal dining room. The cabinet built ins remind me of something you would see in a chateau. Mahogany furniture lovers rejoice! Do you see the table and chairs? I love that chandelier too. The drapery is kept light and simple – and at perfect length and proportion.

The breakfast room is just beautiful! I love the beams and built in cabinets with a window seat! If you have an arched window or door, take note of how they installed drapery over this one.

The grand staircase. I love how they put a tree in it!

The pool and pool house. I love the overall feeling – a Mediterranean spa vibe here! They kept the same color trends in the pool house as the rest of teh house too.

    The Gianettis fear of colour places them firmly in the “dated” category. Fortunately, we have left the insipid neutrality of design exemplified here firmly in the rear window as we race toward bright colours, wallpapers, textures and patterns again. Even the exterior of the house is disappointing. The shutters and trim are always blue on this type of house, but they chose a colour that fades into the rest. I’m sure they are very nice people, but they are still desperately clinging to a style that has come and gone.
