Gustavian Style Bastide

This 17th century bastide is located in a vast vineyard, a few kilometers from the medieval village of Trets, facing the Mont Sainte-Victoire, in the south of France.The mountain is famous for its many appearances in the paintings of Paul Cézanne, who could see it from near his house. The main part was built in 1601. Interior designer Nathalie Vingot-Mei was appointed to renovate its rooms. In her words: "We kept all the original features that made its beauty, old floor tiles and marble floors from the quarry area, exposed beams, fireplaces, moldings ... Only the rooms on the top floor were transformed into guest bedrooms, and we added three additional bathrooms. I featured Nathalie's beautiful work some time ago.

Celebrity Home: Malcolm McDowell

Today we are visiting actor Malcolm Mcdowell's renovated 1920 farmhouse in Ojai, California. His wife, designer Kelley McDowell's decorated it in a Spanish Country style. Kelley says:"It's in the middle of an orange grove, under a canopy of ancient oak trees.It was almost a ruin. It was so dark, you couldn't see without the lights on in the daytime. The former owner was a tile setter, and he had tiled over doors. He tiled the front door shut! The kitchen was almost pitch-black. He had built cabinets over the windows." <div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhC7HGlqA_uYSAtdq28NzWfe87W8YXVWU4Z4yAFlnAOrNf0ff5kMrPAgzh51yZyiFPNZUO2e_XH7JhYbuxrBEesrSLLJ-XFNn81X6UH3l9qHLP_z4bfpj3IkwKNTwDpEqpOcAtj7Rboteg_/s1600/Malcolm+McDowell+and+kelly.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5533406613562930530" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhC7HGlqA_uYSAtdq28NzWfe87W8YXVWU4Z4yAFlnAOrNf0ff5kMrPAgzh51yZyiFPNZUO2e_XH7JhYbuxrBEesrSLLJ-XFNn81X6UH3l9qHLP_z4bfpj3IkwKNTwDpEqpOcAtj7Rboteg_/s400/Malcolm+McDowell+and+kelly.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 264px; height: 283px;" /></a> Malcolm and Kelley McDowell </div> <img id="fb_image" src="http://www.housebeautiful.com/cm/housebeautiful/images/9u/mcdowell01-0410-de.jpg" style="top: -55px; left: 44px; width: 501px; height: 640px;" /> A lofty old oak towers above the classic Spanish-tile roof. <img id="fb_image" src="http://www.housebeautiful.com/cm/housebeautiful/images/KW/mcdowell02-0410-de.jpg" style="top: -55px; left: 44px; width: 500px; height: 638px;" /> Antique Navajo rugs form a path on the front porch. She gathered the stones from her property to build the porch: "It looks like a 3,000-year-old road in Rome." <img id="fb_image" src="http://www.housebeautiful.com/cm/housebeautiful/images/lK/mcdowell03-0410-de.jpg" style="top: -55px; left: 44px; width: 500px; height: 638px;" /> This isn't a very feminine house, but women love it," McDowell says. She painted all the walls and ceilings the starkest white she could find: a Benjamin Moore primer, Super Spec Flat. Both Malcolm and Kelley are collectors of American primitive pieces. She also collects old pottery and Mexican religious art and objects, and antique Navajo rugs. <img id="fb_image" src="http://www.housebeautiful.com/cm/housebeautiful/images/Ac/mcdowell04-0410-de.jpg" style="top: -55px; left: 44px; width: 499px; height: 637px;" /> The dining room's antique table is a mix of birch and pine. The floor is reclaimed wood. Every board was hand-sanded and then assembled in no particular order as they have random widths. They were then treated with Old Masters Gel Stain in Pickling White. Painted armoire from Nathan Turner. <img id="fb_image" src="http://www.housebeautiful.com/cm/housebeautiful/images/vI/mcdowell05-0410-de.jpg" style="top: -55px; left: 44px; width: 498px; height: 636px;" /> Open shelves in the kitchen hold antique Mexican and French ceramics and mugs by ceramist Karen Donleavy. <img id="fb_image" src="http://www.housebeautiful.com/cm/housebeautiful/images/LZ/mcdowell06-0410-de.jpg" style="top: -55px; left: 44px; width: 499px; height: 637px;" /> Poured-concrete counters on reproduction 17th-century cabinets in the kitchen. Kelley says: "The concrete is practical as well as earthy. I can set hot pans on it." Early American hooked rugs. <img id="fb_image" src="http://www.housebeautiful.com/cm/housebeautiful/images/gd/mcdowell07-0410-de.jpg" style="top: -5px; left: -6px; width: 500px; height: 391px;" /> Religious art, stars and stripes, and Navajo rugs in the master bedroom. The bed was made from an old picket fence. <img id="fb_image" src="http://www.housebeautiful.com/cm/housebeautiful/images/BC/mcdowell08-0410-de.jpg" style="top: -55px; left: 44px; width: 500px; height: 638px;" /> The bathroom floor is made of Ojai river rock. Kelley designed the shower door in the style of a metal casement window. <img id="fb_image" src="http://www.housebeautiful.com/cm/housebeautiful/images/XR/mcdowell09-0410-de.jpg" style="top: -55px; left: 44px; width: 501px; height: 640px;" /> A Suzani quilt and kilim pillows on the guest room's Spanish Colonial-style daybed. The lantern is an early California cowboy lamp.A kilim rug, rocking chair, and a Mexican wood chandelier complete the look. All images from <a href="http://www.housebeautiful.com/">here</a>.
