Glass walls mean there is no need to artwork here. Surrounded by trees these pods are a real of example of bringing the outdoors in. Oh, and gravel rocks because you don’t have to mow or water the lawn.

Los Angeles Design with Mediterranean Flair

For the love of horses…check out the artwork in this house. I happen to love it along with everything else. From the perfectly trained foliage on the front door to the rustic floors and just right color coordination this one is a 10. All the dirt.

Something Old, Something New, Something Blue

$19,500,000, Beverly Hills, CA, 7 bed, 10 bath, 12,717 sq ft, built in 1988, listed by Hilton and Hyland

The location of this home in a gated community of Beverly Hills probably accounts for half of the price.  The grand stairway and windows of the entryway surely make up the rest.  All the dirt.

Architecture Outside the Box

$10,800,000, Los Angeles, CA, 5 bed, 8 bath, 9,385 sq ft,  built in 2007, listed by Partners Trust Beverly Hills

Made up of two unique glass and steel boxes perched in and cantilevered from a series of exposed poured concrete walls this home features spectacular views of Lake Hollywood. And if that doesn’t make you say wow how about a living room with walls of glass that fully retract, a floating dining room, state of-the-art gourmet kitchen, private movie theatre, gym and massage room. A variety of outdoor spaces from enclosed gardens and outdoor rooms to cantilevered decks and an open sky terrace are also integral parts of the home. Designed by Jeffrey & Rochelle Mills of Mills Studio and completed in 2007. All the dirt.

Gated and Creative Celebrity Funhouse!

$13,500,000, Beverly Hills, CA, 6 bed, 9 bath, 10,000 sq ft, built in 1988, listed by Hilton and Hyland

When I saw all the pink and grandeur of this house needed to know what rich girl lived here. So I did some digging and found out it belongs to Christina Aguilera. Makes perfect sense! It went on the market earlier last year – hey this isn’t a news site, just real estate eye candy, and this home delivers! Don’t miss the mirrored ceilings, lux in-home salon, and actual gift-wrapping room. All the dirt.
