"High Design for a Chef"
Featuring the home of
Giada De Laurentiis
"Fitzsimons, whom the couple met through Oprah Winfrey's chef, Art Smith, incorporated contemporary Italian shelving and furniture throughout the house.
For other finishes and furnishings, Thompson and De Laurentiis relied on Michele Trout and Heidi Bonesteel, of the interior design firm Bonesteel Trout Hall.
"Todd and Giada are both very fashionable," says Trout. "They understood nice materials and high design."
The public rooms' crisp white walls and bleached-white-oak floors,
for example, set off dark pieces like a custom-made zebrawood dining table and buffet and dining chairs upholstered in chocolate suede.
Murano glass vases and paintings by Thompson's friends Darren Quinn and Aldo Luongo as well as vintage Italian movie posters from De Laurentiis's grandfather warm up the rooms."
