Inside Amber Valletta’s Peaceful L.A. Sanctuary | Open Door | Architectural Digest

Today, AD is welcomed by Amber Valletta to tour her peaceful and sustainable home in Los Angeles. Alongside an illustrious modeling career, the supermodel is also a keen climate change activist, so when it came to designing her home, sustainability was key. Valletta enlisted friend and interior designer Ross Cassidy to help design a stylish yet eco-friendly space. Paint on the walls is replaced by natural clay plaster, and the exterior is clad in light stone that will last for years. Inside, Valletta upholstered the furniture she already owned with sustainable materials and went vintage or artisanal to fill in decor gaps. Full of natural, earthy tones and organic textures, Valletta created the peaceful and sustainable sanctuary she was looking for—"a place where, when you come in from the world, you can exhale.”

I've never seen so many unique lights and fixtures in one house. They're all different and still flow with the design. Beautiful!

[melvissalcedo]

Fluted clay walls are incredible, furniture and lighting curation also great

[SupernaturalDelight]

Love the home's aesthetic. Clean, neutral, organic, sensible, stylish.

[elletea]

Love that it’s minimal and zen but feels super warm and inviting even though is a very neutral palette. The vintage pieces, plants and natural elements bring it to life.

Her house is so beautiful, incredible materials, with classic & beautiful pieces without ostentation, and a sense of serenity .

Watching the tour of Amber Valletta's sanctuary was a relaxing experience, showcasing how simplicity and mindfulness can be incorporated into interior design to create a calming atmosphere.

While I am a huge fan of color and maximalism in general, this marriage of sand and stone did not disappoint. Love it!

[MrMfaust]

The house reflects Amber and her hubby's personalities. An interesting mixture of vintage and modern fixtures.

Love how buying vintage in Paris is sustainable ✨✨

[DACEDA]

Wow, her house is incredible. I have a feeling I’ll rewatch this one often.

[yangyangcai]

Hands down one of the most elegant homes I’ve seen 🫶🏼

[steffnic]

One of the few houses that is “Zen” aesthetic, and TRULY Zen. Not some designer’s overdone impression of it. Love her and have always loved her voice for some reason. Ever since seeing her in Hitch.

[audrey-]

Absolutely love your house! Love the simple no clutter look. One of the best celeb homes I have seen on AD. Your wardrobe rocks! Awesome dog too!

[ogarga]

Amber "It's Vintage" Valletta. Amazing house.

[MaryMamaAshlee]

I want every single thing in this house including the clay walls and the dog. Beautiful!

[brandyurban]

She is so naturally beautiful! No wonder she is a super model. ❤

[AdélaVlčková]

The design is so calming and beautifully reflects her style. It’s inspiring to see how she’s created such a peaceful sanctuary in L.A. Thanks for the tour!
