Courteney Cox may be a beloved actress and producer, but she’s also a real estate and design lover with a chic sense of style and a passion for vintage and antique finds. After designing the interiors of her Malibu estate with the talented Trip Haenisch, she redecorated with a slew of new furnishings, in smart, sophisticated earth tones. But what happens when you become an enthusiastic collector of one-of-a-kind pieces? Over time, you cycle through new items, and need to find ways to upcycle things you’re ready to part with.

Tell us about your personal aesthetic. What kinds of furnishings and decor are you drawn to, and why?
I have continuously changed my style throughout the years, but I think I’ve settled on one that I think will last: eclectic and casual, with rich earth tones.
Speaking of which, are there go-to palettes you find yourself returning to when it comes to painting spaces or choosing furnishings? Are you more minimalist, or do you play with color, and if so, which ones?
I choose neutral palettes and linens and usually love to incorporate warm earth tones. I’m not a minimalist—I like my home to feel inviting and cozy.

Do you find your personal tastes have changed over time, or do you find yourself with tried-and-true favorites?
Yes, my taste is ever-changing but there are certain fundamentals I’m always attracted to.
Do you have any decorating must-haves that find their way into every home you own?
I gravitate toward pieces with texture and beautiful craftsmanship, but especially those that are unique with history.

The vintage French bookshelf, the James Perse white oak mirror, and the crystal tables have all been in my bedroom for years and are some of my favorite pieces.
