Ellen DeGeneres & Portia de Rossi Santa Monica ranch

In 2009 Portia de Rossi and Ellen DeGeneres  purchased a ranch north of Los Angeles with multiple structures, including eight cabins on 26 acres. Enlisting the help of interior designer Cliff Fong they set out creating some interesting spaces across the 8 cabins that make up the ranch. There is a mixture of simplicity, rustic charm and humor layered throughout the property. A myriad of textures and furnishings from 18th and mid century antiques mixed with industrial elements work perfectly anchored by raw and painted out timbers. The 26-acre property was once the estate of actor William Powell in the 1920s. Later it became a monastery, then a rehab center… how LA!
