How Artists Live: Incredibly Creative Homes Like Nothing You’ve Seen Before

Some artists make art not just of their canvases, but their entire homes. Today we’re taking a look at 3 incredibly creative homes of artists and designers, which will have you seeing your whole space in a completely different light.

This is the Paris home of antiques dealer and decorator Florence Lopez, from The Wall Street Journal. She re-creates her home, which also serves as a showroom for the pieces she sells, every few years, and definitely isn’t shy about color.

Artist Matt Austin’s home in Brooklyn, New York, is a riot of texture and color — besides accessorizing with plenty of pieces of his own creation, he’s also made the walls themselves into works of art. The result is a completely immersive design experience, where the walls and the art and the furniture come together to make a space not quite like anything you’ve seen before.
