Lately, Architectural Digest has quickly become one of my favorite publications. Rumor has it the new editor-in-chief, Margaret Russell, is responsible this new breath of life. The March issue featured an array of celebrity homes including that of Diane Von Furstenberg which I previously shared. Another home that stood out is the Greenwich Village townhouse of Brooke Shields. After touring brownstones all over Manhanttan, Shields was certain a neglected four-family home built in 1910 was the one. The actress collaborated with  Brooklyn based MADE architects to complete the renovation. Shields also enlisted the help of decorator David Flint Wood (husband of the fabulous India Hicks) to create a home that would "sum up her life".

The walls throughout the townhouse are painted Benjamin Moore's Chelsea Gray.

The living room is accented with pillows of John Robshaw linen; the curule-form stool is covered from fabric from Lee Jofa by David Hicks, and the jute rug is Pottery Barn.

The kitchen has an eclectic mix of furnishings. I love the contrast of the orange chairs with the charcoal cabinetry.

Shields displays a variety of photos in the family room.

The bold Jansen chairs stand out against the wide-plank floors stained in Syndey Harbour Paint's Palm Beach Black.

I love how the light shines through the foyer.

Shields' husband gifted her with the vintage Louis Vuitton trunk.

The Anglo-Indian tester bed in the master bedroom is topped with block-printed linens from John Robshaw.

The actress's closet maximizes space with a rolling shoe rack and a library ladder.

The freestanding tub is a stand out feature in the master bath.

Benjamin Moore's Grizzly Bear Brown creates a cozy feeling in the guest bedroom.
