Inside Celebrity Homes: Cameron Diaz Manhattan’s Apartment – Cameron Diaz—whose breakout role was in the 1998 comedy There’s Something About Mary—owned the 2,400-square-foot prewar apartment for several years before she decided to heed the impulse she had on first seeing the place, which featured all-white rooms done up in a vaguely nautical theme.
“I knew right away that the space needed color,” she says. A professed design freak—she recently took on the role of artistic director for the fashion-accessories label Pour La Victoire—Diaz spent time compiling tear sheets of rooms that she loved rather than hiring a designer right away. “The majority ended up being homes Kelly had done,” Diaz adds.

That’s not surprising, given Wearstler’s fondness for spinning the color wheel with abandon through every room she creates. For Diaz’s apartment, it landed on the hues of burnished metals and lustrous minerals: malachite, onyx, rose gold, silver, and copper. In the living room of actress Cameron Diaz’s Manhattan apartment, which was designed by Kelly Wearstler, the swivel armchair by the window is by Milo Baughman, and the Murano-glass chandelier, cocktail table, and stools are vintage; the armchair is upholstered in a Clarence House fabric, and the wallcovering by de Gournay and rug by Mansour Modern are custom designs. For this New York apartment the Kelly channeled her signature California cool elegantly juxtaposed with East Coast sophistication and luxury. Lush neutrals and rich metallic detailing create an effortless yet spirited vibe. An artful blend of soulful vintage and contemporary pieces compose this confident and sublime retreat in the heart of the city. The bold emerald green kitchen and chic feline wall-covered bathroom are exuberant yet compact – iconic examples of Kelly’s use of thoughtful detail to liven up smaller spaces.
