How are you dear readers? I'm ok, thanks. After yesterday's bright colours let's tone it down a notch or two and visit this 1990s Mediterranean-style home decorated by interior designers Michael and Alexander Misczynski. They established their Los Angeles firm, Atelier AM, in 2002, two years after getting married. They've had high-profile clients such as Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
A combination of modern and rustic furniture with many antiques and a soft palette throughout the house. Elegant and subdued. Let's step in.





In the entryway: a Han vase, Isamu Noguchi sculpture, table with blue stone base and English 17th-century oak top and French 19th-century mortars. Painting by Mark Bradford. French antique limestone flooring.


Lamp by antique dealer Axel Vervoordt. Love the bronze table by Swiss sculptor Diego Giacometti with the owl perched on a side branch.


Italian 18th-century consoles flank the Louis XIV fireplace. Bronze chairs by Diego Giacometti and seats in antique linen add layers of texture to the clean design.
