Barclay Butera's home on the home tour

It was a huge treat this year to have Barclay Butera's newly renovated cottage on the Newport Harbor Home and Garden Tour. He is a great supporter of our tour and our school, Newport Harbor High School and has been hosting a gorgeous cocktail reception for us for many years. 

His iconic blue and white cottage has been transformed and streamlined into a more neutral and soothing space. He opened up walls and brightened everything up with white paint and soft fabrics. And, he was there to greet visitors as they walked through his stunning home. Here are a few photos from Thursday.

The family room has a sophisticated coastal vibe.

Love the leather pillows!

Animal print is a must in every home!

Perfect bookshelf styling

with Louis Vuitton accents.

I love the nightstands and simple lamps.

A great pop of orange and fun art.

Glamour in the home office.

What do you think of the transformation?

This beautiful new fountain is now a beacon for guests.

Maison de Luxe at

the Greystone Mansion 

was a beautiful collaboration of

well-known interior designers, 

who each designed individual rooms.  

Set during the festive 

holidays in December 

and located at the grand 

and historic Greystone Mansion

 in the foothills of Beverly Hills, 

here's a peek at the living room 

designed by Barclay Butera.

Soft colors and bold wood pieces

More symmetry with the leopard wing chairs, library tables and window seat.

Extreme tufting and lots of cushy pillows, with the rug giving a beachy sort of vibe

The opening party was an

evening filled with glamour and even

 included all of the "Million DollarDecorators".

It looks like a beautiful evening
