Robert Novogratz, April 6

The Novogratz family have featured in Livingetc many times, and so it's exciting to be able to hear about their LA home in Robert Novogratz's own words. It's a 1920s ‘castle’ in the Hollywood Hills, with a large basement with a cinema room, music room, home office, wine cellar and bar, WC, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The ground floor has an open-plan dining room, kitchen and family room, plus a separate living room, laundry room, one  bedroom and three bathrooms. The master suite with bedroom, bathroom and  walk-in wardrobe, plus another bedroom, playroom and bathroom, are on the  first floor.

Rayman Boozer,  April 13

Rayman Boozer's home was featured in our February 2021 issue, and was a welcome dose of color inspiration in the middle of winter. The founder of design agency Apartment 48, Rayman's live-work loft apartment is a converted factory in NoHo, New York, bought from one of the Jonas brothers.As well as a covetable way with blue paint, it has an open-plan living/dining/kitchen area, an office area, a master bedroom with en suite and a further bathroom.

SARAH SHERMAN SAMUEL, April 20

Sarah Sherman Samuel's house was the cover story of Livingetc in July 2020. It's a fairly recently built house on a wooded hill in Michigan.   ‘It’s a house of contradictions and the playful design veers towards asymmetry,’ Sarah says. ‘It was built in 1980 but it has mid-century and post-modern elements. There are amazing features everywhere, like the giant circular skylight in the family room. I knew that I wanted to change the floor plan significantly but I loved the overall whimsical element of the property.’

Jonathan Adler, April 27

Design legend Jonathan Adler has created a whole aesthetic, filled with wit, gilt edges and fun shapes.  And no more so than at his home, an apartment in Greenwich Village, Manhattan, New York. In 2001 he doubled the square footage and bought the adjacent unit, filling the space with Jonathan’s trademark witty pieces and, in his words, Modern American Glamour.
