Some of you might remember Michael S. Smith‘s Bel Air home was featured in Elle Decor.  For those of you who didn’t see it, I thought it might be nice to compare it to his new modern home I posted yesterday.  It’s quite a change and as much as I love this house, I really, really love his new one. Enjoy!

    Oh my, Michael lives beautifully, and with such exquisite taste. Both the earlier house, or the latest, he most definately has a lovely lifestyle. Do any east coast decorators live that well? I don’t really know of any…..

    Michael Smith is very stylish indeed. It seems he streamlined his home decor. Less things. As the saying goes,”less is more.” I prefer his new home decor.

    I love the garden! And this is certainly not a minimalistic home:)

    I am coveting his artwork, especially that sketch above the fireplace! And his landscaping…to die!

    A beautiful home; no surprise.

    Beautiful decorating–but now dated. Way over the top for today’s aesthetic. I wonder what the dogs think of the new house–more room to chase!! Thanks. Mary(Happy 4th–hope that you are going to The Hamptons)
