Diane Keaton pairs colorful mosaics and architectural details to set the perfect first impression for her Spanish revival home – estate experts decode its charm

Celebrity design enthusiasts may already be all too familiar with the work of Stephen Shadley, the entrusted figure behind Jennifer Aniston, Ryan Murphy, and David Miller's homes.

Arguably, his most unmistakable work, however, comes in the form of Diane Keaton's former home: a Spanish revival structure nestled in Beverly Hills – where every space upholds a Mediterranean-inspired aesthetic. Naturally, therefore, the entrance space follows suit.

Designed to set a precedent for the interior design style behind her black front door, the entrance space exhibits a Spanish revival aesthetic through the curved architectural details, warm outdoor lighting, mosaics, and sculptural accessories.

Despite the statement architecture and intricate decorating details, Keaton's space isn't overwhelming. Instead, her use of soft neutrals (seen through the limewashed wall and gray stone flooring) keeps the space balanced and allows the Spanish-style accessories to take center stage.

According to Ryan Fitzgerald, a real estate expert from Raleigh Realty, the secret to achieving a Keaton-inspired exterior space is found in the combination of curved detailing and tiled flooring – so if your home boasts these features, this is your cue to enhance them.

'In my professional opinion, to nail the Spanish Revival look, it's important to pay attention to architectural details. Arched doorways, stucco walls, and decorative tiles are all hallmarks of this style that I've seen make a significant impact,' he says.

Granted, we can't all enjoy an entrance space as expansive as Keaton's. However, as Fitzgerald explains, there are ways to bring the design trend to life in more conventional spaces, including your living room and kitchen.

'From my experience, textures play a big role in creating the cozy, inviting feel of Spanish Revival interiors. I often suggest using rich fabrics like velvet or brocade for upholstery and incorporating woven textiles such as rugs or throw pillows to add depth and visual interest to the space,' he says.

'I believe the Spanish Revival trend is all about creating a space that feels both elegant and lived-in, with a touch of Old World charm. By focusing on warm colors, natural materials, and carefully chosen antiques and accents, anyone can bring a bit of Spanish-inspired magic into their home.'

For a beautiful starting point, we've handpicked these pieces to bring the look to life in any room. The terracotta urn is particularly inspired by the actress's space.

Lastly, when it comes to inspiration direct from Keaton, it is wise to decorate with antiques, much like the stone mosaic vase seen by the actress's door.

'Antiques are an essential element that I've seen bring Spanish Revival interiors to life. From my point of view, mixing vintage pieces with modern elements creates a dynamic and interesting space,' Fitzgerald adds.

'I also often recommend clients look for wrought iron accents, such as light fixtures [much like Keaton's dramatic piece], as well as antique wooden furniture with intricate carvings or inlays.'
