Wes Anderson & Sofia Coppola, Paris
"Screenwriter and director Sofia Coppola has deep Hollywood roots, but forget the glam when it comes to this sensible nester who calls home a Manhattan loft complete with a newly-arrived baby. Basic art-gallery-white walls highlight a long passion for black and white photographs, line and oil artwork, complemented by mid-century European furniture. Fresh flowers have a everyday place in her home, much like everyday homes in Europe.
Fresh off the film set of Marie Antoinette, everything French speaks to her. Pierre Frey fabrics, French historical books, milled soaps and of course wine fill her SoHo loft. Long before setting off to to direct her new film, she had a keen devotion to accoutremonts. English teas, fine china and antique linens provide a old-style luxury to white sheepskin rugs, throw floor pillows and cuddly afghans. Transitioning her home style to child-friendly is the next design challenge for this successful in life and business, woman. Her first child brings Ms Coppola to a new station in life, one that will provide years of enjoyment as well as pages of experiences to share with her film audiences."
