Inside Terence and Rachel Winter's Spanish-Style Beverly Hills Home

The Winters' Living Room

The Winters were photographed Oct. 18 in their living room, where architect Linda Brettler designed a coffered alder ceiling. Furnishings include a Donghia sofa, high-backed chair from Wertz Brothers, Benjamin Moore’s paint in Sanctuary, draperies in Kneedler-Fauchere fabric and custom fireplace by Francois & Co.

Says the architect, who closely collaborated with Rachel on the interior design: “Working with her was a total highlight of the project. She has great taste and wasn’t afraid to do something creative and whimsical.”

Open Kitchen

Original Bookcase

The home’s original bookcase, covering an entire wall of the dining room, was restored and restained from a light pine to a darker color. Architect Brettler added a platform and iron railings.

Dining Room

In the dining room, done in Osborne & Little Summer House wallpaper, is a flea-market-find lamp, a mesh silver bowl from a Palm Springs antique mall and a pair of candlesticks from L.A.’s Wertz Brothers Furniture.

Butterflies-Decorated Staircase

Rachel’s collection of ’60s and ’70s metal butterflies decorates the staircase, which is made from magnesite, a flooring material created from a magnesium compound. Says Brettler: “It’s more malleable than concrete but holds up just as well. You get this great seamless uniform feel.”

High-Ceiling Guest Room

The high-ceiling guest room is painted in Dunn-Edwards Black River Falls paint and includes Red Egg’s Indochine headboard, a vintage leather sofa, a rug from California Rugs and a ceiling light from HD Buttercup that’s been spray-painted white.

Master Bath

Details in the master bath include Mission Tile wall tile, Statuary and Marquina marble floor tile, Kallista faucets and a custom glass door from Sunshine Glass. Says Rachel, “The colors are pretty yet striking and strong.”

Master Bedroom

Winter took bifold closet doors originally made for New York’s Pierre hotel, found at Olde Good Things, and cleverly turned them into a headboard in the master bedroom by bolting them to the wall. The sconces are from Hinson.
