Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent are behaving a lot like Ellen and Portia lately.  When they are not selling their homes, they are buying and renovating others.  There must be something in the California water.  By all means this isn’t a complain.  We all benefit from these beautiful creations, including us, mere virtual consumers.  Designers Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent’s Los Angeles home is what dreams are made of… it’s what uplift spirits and.., you get the point.   Nate Berkus’s refined eclecticism is on display in every room of the 9,000 square feet 1928 Spanish Colonial home.  The landscaping is like something out of a fairy tail, encircled with stunning vegetation and a colonial courtyard.  The couple told Architectural Digest that the house was in great shape when they bought it and as a result they didn’t have to do more than just decorate it.  The decorating process required stripping, bleaching, and waxing mahogany paneling in the dining room, replacing fireplace mantels, replacing the kitchen fixtures and surfaces.  The overall aesthetic of the design is a bit on the masculine side as Jeremiah prefers “We go for a very clean, masculine look. We don’t like to live with a lot of color,” Brent.  If you haven’t watched the couple’s home renovations Amazon show Nate & Jeremiah by Design, make sure you do.  It’s full of inspirations and design ideas.  At the end of this post, you can watch the video where Nate and Jeremiah show their beautiful new home.  But first, see below the beatutiful images of Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent’s Los Angeles home.

The living room is furnished in European mid century pieces and objects.
