This 1920s house is the work of architect Roland E. Coate Sr., who designed residences for golden-era Hollywood luminaries such as Barbara Stanwyck and David O. Selznick. Santa Monica-based Kathryn M. Ireland who has a client list that has included Steven Spielberg, Steve Martin and Caroline Kennedy — decorated this five-bedroom Spanish Colonial Revival casa in Palos Verdes Estates which overlooks the ocean.

Bougainvillea in bloom.
The designer leaves the walls, as well as the plushly stuffed sofas, a calm off-white: "It's like a blank canvas. And I added a splash of red. It keeps a room lively, buoyant and interesting. It's an important color. A lot of people omit it from their decorating."
Painting by Dana Bartlett. Custom mantle and grate.
An East Indian sunburst mirror rests above the mantlein the living room.
Trestle table and chairs, antique chandelier and 19th century mirror, both Italian.
