Waldo Fernandez, AD100 designer to stars like Elizabeth Taylor, was given free reign over the interiors, creating an elegant blend of Morocco and California thatâs remained intact, for the most part.
The 5,409-square-foot main residence boasts 13 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms. High ceilings and large glass windows abound, flooding the living spaces with natural light. Moroccan-inspired tiling can be found in the homeâs kitchen and many of its living areas.
As chef Joshua Weissman welcomes AD into his Austin home in the latest episode of Open Door, he jokes that he doesnât actually live in a kitchen.
Adding to the North African decor are Moroccan lattice shutters, which decorate many of the interior doors, and colorful lanterns that hang from several of the ceilings. In the homeâs yard, an infinity pool looks out onto an expansive two-and-a-half-acre man-made lake, which is filled with koi, bass, and turtles. Orchards of orange, grapefruit, lemon, pomegranate, guava, and lime trees add to the propertyâs serene allure.
