Vogue Living: Houses, Gardens, People takes you to these style-makers' private realms around the world, captured by such celebrated photographers as Miles Aldridge, Cecil Beaton, Jonathan Becker, Eric Boman, Oberto Gili, François Halard, Horst P.

Here are Madonna's romantic rural retreat in the depths of the English countryside and the Oscar de la Renta's coral-stone Palladian mansion on the coast of the Dominican Republic; Michael and Eva Chow's epic Los Angeles manse and shoe maestro Christian Louboutin's magical houseboat on the Nile; Donna Karan's Zenlike Manhattan aerie and legendary tastemaker Marella Agnelli's enchanted villa and gardens in the Palmeraie of Marrakesh; Julian and Olatz Schnabel's operatic downtown loft and childrenswear designer Rachel Riley's miniature château on the Loire; celebrated landscape gardener Fernando Caruncho's innovative Spanish gardens and Houghton, David Cholmondeley's magnificent English stately home; Janet de Botton's idyllic Provençal estate; and four decades of Karl Lagerfeld's endlessly surprising houses, both innovative and palatial.
