Step onto the property of Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen’s
new 22,000 square foot mansion overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Brentwood, CA,
and you’ll surprisingly feel at home. Featured in a full layout in the latest
issue of Architectural Digest, the Brady Bundchen mansion is not only
eco-friendly, but it breathes scents of both tasteful and homey.
Tom and Gisele’s desire to make their home as eco-friendly
as possible was a success, as the home boasts reclaimed oak ceilings and their energy
and water systems have been implemented from recycled components. Better yet,
there are 2 arrays of photovatic solar panels that meet all of the property’s
electricity needs.
Tom and Gisele focused on implementing a neutral color
palette throughout the house, which instantly gives it a country chic vibe.
To turn your kitchen into a less expensive version of Tom
and Gisele’s, think about painting or staining your cabinets a rustic brown,
and giving the countertops and walls a neutral tone. Think marble countertops
and cream walls. You can then make your kitchen pop with your accents, which
can be as organic as flowers on the table to a bowl of fresh fruit on your
kitchen island. Even choosing colorful handles and knobs is an easy way to
bring life into your kitchen.
The same can be said for your outdoor patio. If your outdoor
area is mostly catered around neutral colors, play up the space with bright
decorative pillows, or keep the area earthy and cozy like Tom and Gisele have
done by accenting the area with plants of various colors and sizes.
Gisele even keeps her closet as simple as possible, by
allowing her shoes, purses and clothing to make the room pop and give it life
amid the neutral shelving units and wall color.
If you have neutral walls and
furniture, how do you plan on making the room come together to give it a fun, yet
homey feel?
