Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff Revamp the Vice Presidential Abode--With Help From Sheila Bridges
*Built in 1893 and perched within 13 acres of leafy hillside, the 9,000-square-foot estate features round turret rooms, inglenook fireplaces, sweeping verandas, and even a heated pool. Unlike other Victorian properties of its ilk, the Queen Anne–style house does not follow a symmetrical layout. Its main rooms do not revolve around a central hall, but instead connect to each other in a free-flowing fashion.
The house has been home to seven previous vice presidents and their families, each of whom has introduced their own tweaks to the space: Nelson Rockefeller, President Gerald Ford’s VP, famously brought in a Greek-inspired “cage” bed by the Surrealist artist Max Ernst; the Bushes worked with designer Mark Hampton, who transformed the home’s interior using an ample amount of celadons, lime greens, and light blues.
For their own take on the home, Harris and Emhoff opted to imbue the interiors with a style reflective of their native California.>
