Inside Ashley Benson’s Playful Los Angeles Home | Open Door | Architectural Digest

Today Architectural Digest is welcomed by 'Pretty Little Liars' star Ashley Benson to tour her playful home in Los Angeles. Designed in 1930 by architect Arthur Kelly, Ashley's home is an Old Hollywood gem–and having had only three owners in over 90s years it's practically untouched. Inspired by her love of Europe and Nancy Meyer’s movies, Ashley enlisted interior designer Nicole Gordon, and architect John Farrace to help bring her home into the 21st century. From astronaut wallpaper to the ultimate coastal grandmother kitchen, Benson has created a playful space with something fun hidden around each corner.“I wanted to make each turn and each room—no matter the size—a unique experience.”


SAG-AFTRA members are currently on strike; as part of the strike, union actors are not promoting their film and TV projects. This video was conducted prior to the strike.

I love when celebrities say they love their “small spaces” but the bathroom is the size of my living room and kitchen combined LOL

[Xxohh]

Her house is very coherent. Every room has this casino/ office/ hotel vibe that mix together.

[tokyodrifttt]

The variety of style in each room is great. Very satisfying to explore each one.

[noaaa]

I love it when we get dark rooms in these tours! White and beige get so boring.

[kathrynfmckown]

It takes a LOT to impress me after being in design, interiors and renovations of many houses over MANY years. WOW! This is just gorgeous!

[FabiolaPriceMakeup]

I feel like her house is just the utimate definition of Curated. & everything has a purpose. LOVE IT

[clairemcelwain]

If this tour had been done at night... it would've given that spectacular dining room the moment it deserves. Wow. Loved it

[JLFredriksson]

Not the interior style I normally go for, but this really inspired me! The hotel feel, the playfulness but not busy as she said - it's really beautiful and inviting! Also really love the way the combined different colors and patterns with classic textures!

[levibates]

Phenomenal luxury finishes and quirky design!

[anthonyharvey]

Legitimately one of the best houses I’ve seen on the channel so far

[vandy]

She seems like such a kind genuine person. The way she talks about how she loves being with her friends, and the fact that she has long standing and new friendships is amazing.

I was amazed by everything in this house. I loved how Ashley’s house wasn’t the typical “nude and blush” and how it was super fun yet cohesive. Def took a lot of screenshots throughout the video!

[StudiousSu]

That pretty little liars money must hit different! I love her house 😍

[treasurebehold]

Spaces should feel like conversation pieces, combined with coziness and elegance. I think she has achieved it with this soace.

[Aftermyownheart]

Very chic! It’s so nice to see all the colors throughout. Very chic and sophisticated. Love it.

[TheSushmaHomeSellingTeam]

With a creative floor plan like this, you can get the idea of abundant lifestyle. There're so much beauty in this place. 😍✨
