Spanish Style Home in Hollywood

Director John Pasquin and actress JoBeth Williams live in this Spanish-style home on a hillside high above Hollywood. It was built by architect Gerard R. Colcord in 1928. Interior designer Madeline Stuart worked with the couple to make the home of their dreams


Homeowners John Pasquin and JoBeth Williams.




Architect Gerard R. Colcord designed the entry's stair railing. A tile at the foot of the stairs bears his signature.

















In the kitchen an 18th-century Portuguese tile mural was installed above the range. Creamy yellow marble countertops, blue-painted cabinets, and a terra-cotta tile floor peppered with blue diamond-shaped tiles define the space.


In the adjoining breakfast room, a hand-painted mural by Jean Horihata was inspired by murals in the Italian Villa of Livia at Prima Porta, near Rome.













Outdoors, John and JoBeth worked with landscape designer Art Luna.



Must start looking for some Christmas inspiration for you. Have a lovely day, and see you tomorrow!
