Dallas Residence

43 rooms full of silk velvet chairs, chandeliers dipped in brass, walls textured in seashells, along with a chunk of gold rock sitting in the shower are features only fit for the home of a king. An international royal family found residence in Dallas, Texas, with the help of West Hollywood interior designer Kari Whitman. Specializing in high-end luxury residential properties, Whitman used her inventive and versatile design techniques to create an old world modern eclectic home for one of the richest families in the world.As she did with previous clients Jessica Alba, Kristen Bell, Emilio Estevez, Antonio Banderas, and Melanie Griffith, Whitman reached to the bottom of the sea to find original, vintage, and custom pieces to bring the royal family an interior design that has never been seen before. “Internationally, they have been everywhere and seen everything, so people want to see something that other people haven’t seen, and that’s what makes it cool for them,” said Whitman. Within one year, Whitman travelled the world to shop her favorite stores, search through antique shows, furniture shows, and art shows, and custom designed multiple furniture pieces specifically for this estate. The end result: a visionary design worthy of the dignified and distinguished.
