Inside Dee & Tommy Hilfiger's Mediterranean-Style Home | Open Door | Architectural Digest

Today AD is welcomed to Palm Beach, Florida by Dee & Tommy Hilfiger for a tour of their lakefront, Mediterranean-style home. A spacious 5,000 square feet, the property is resplendent with verdant gardens and white columns soaring towards arched ceilings. Built in 2006, the Hilfigers were immediately drawn to the indoor-outdoor architecture of their new home, which, modeled after many of Palm Beach’s older estates, features an interior courtyard. The couple turned to AD100 designer Martyn Lawrence Bullard to achieve their goal of infusing that open and bright feel throughout the interior, as well. "The house has a wonderful soul." says Bullard. "We just had to take away the formality and make it feel a bit younger, sexier, looser.”

Now I see where all my money that I spent at Tommy clothes went..🤣 (beautiful home, love the blue details and Tommy if you see this sponsor me!)

The chemistry between the Hilfigers is contagious. I love it.

Just like all their other AD home tours with the NY apartment and CT home, they're getting ready to sell this. They live in Miami now.

This may be my favorite home of all time. The coral columns are so wonderful. Everything they did was perfection to me. I have a Spanish style home on Maui, in the country, built for a Portuguese family. The Portuguese came here 100 years ago. They were cowboys and plantation managers, mostly. Was already getting ready to enclose the arches in the front, for that delicious courtyard feel. Now I have even more inspiration.

This home is so refreshingly beautiful… I love the mix of textures, styles and the touches, finishes and feel of each space.

Love the vibe of this house and they're right about living near water, it is a very relaxing lifestyle. You just automatically slow down and relax looking at the water and listening to the sounds. Very good for your blood pressure :) I'm also glad they chose a home that makes you feel like you can walk around in your bare feet versus a home that feels like a museum where you're afraid to touch anything and if you're not in a sport coat and wingtips, you're inappropriate for the house. Way to go Tommy and Dee!!!!

I haven’t even watched this yet and I know I’m going to love it. Their plaza apartment is still my favorite home I’ve seen on this channel. Their taste is so decadent and over the top yet nostalgic and cosy at the same time and so perfectly eclectic.

I love these spaces. It's nice how what they did does not feel ostentatious, it feels comfortable, light and happy. There's just enough tension with the architectural elements, mix of lighting from other cultures, the blue and white ceramics, terra cotta tile, bamboo, Spanish tiles. It's clearly an investment but the furniture feels accessible and comfortable. It's like yes you can hang out barefoot here. I like Martyn Lawrence Bullard's style when he draws from many cultures, and you can see those touches here.

I lovvve these 2!! they showed their penthouse in NY and I still remember how soooo lovely their home was and they were funny together!!

[MizJilly]

The decor did not once veer toward ostentatiousness. The designer (and his clients!) really let the home speak for itself.

Tommy is super cool and very down to Earth. I love his voice. It’s so calm and relaxing. He’s relaxed, which is so impressive for a New Yorker.

[sarahratliff]

Beautiful home!!! I love the outdoor spaces! Tommy has such a peaceful, calming voice. He could read books for audio recording.

[plumicorn]

These coral stone and the outdoor place are amazingly. And Dee and Tommy are so likeable, kind and humble. I wished I had both in my circle of friends.

[fransirahome]

Love this various style of home: Boho, Mediterranean, Moroccan, Spanish. So beautiful.

[harukochan]

After watching this video, I like Tommy Hilfiger even more. I adore the complex balance and intricacy of the designs of the house. It'd be fun seeing how they decide on the changes in the decorations over time. Also, his appreciation for other fashion designers is verified by the photographs in the gallery. He is humble, talented, and detail-oriented.

[katelash]

Thanks for one of your best interviews! They are sweet people saving what they liked and making the best of that even better! Keep these inspiring videos coming!

[marinedrive]

It really is a gorgeous home and the Spanish/Morrocan vibe with all the coral stone is so Palm Beach - love it! My only gripe is that they painted out all of those beautiful and intricate wooden ceilings. The house is flooded with light already; painting the ceilings was just overkill. Still gorgeous tho'.

[anilkataria]

This lady makes the home more beautiful. She seems to be so content and happy with life that the joy oozes out when she talks. She truly deserves to live in such a beautiful home.

[Blurggg]

light airy cozy sophisticated interesting, this is such a beautiful home. The kind of house that you can plop down on a comfy couch and just let your eyes wander around at all the detail.

[richardkurtz]

Absolutely beautiful home. Great decorating style as well. Perfect 10.
