{Architectural Digest May 2010: Gerard Butler's New York Loft}

Aye up. What's this? A super, mega, huge Hollywood star who actually comes across as fun, friendly and genuinely interested in his interviews? Yeah, that would be Gerard Butler. So, now we've established that he comes across as a nice fella, let's check out his New York loft. Yes, those lovely people at Architectural Digest took us on a tour of his space in the Chelsea district and it certainly doesn't disappoint. Gerard said he wanted to space to be "...elegant and gorgeous and at the same time rather masculine and raw." For me the dramatic chandeliers (3, 4, 6, 7) make the space that little bit more special. This wonderful space was designed by Production Designer Elvis Restaino, so it's no surprise the space is high in the drama stakes. Feast away my friends...

  1. Mr Butler's taste in interior design is as bad as his acting.

  3. Thanks for stopping by, Paul. Always great to hear different viewpoints. His loft isn't my personal favourite style, but I can appreciate what is stylish about it and why it might be an ideal space for some.

  9. Some of these pictures are really not to my taste - the kitchen looks like you could get a splinter from it: nothing needs to look that rugged! - and yet some of it is really nice. The first picture of the living room with the sofas and chairs gathered around the ottoman and the lamps is really lovely - it makes something quite cosy in what is clearly a massive space.

    I like the use of big plants too, but overall it does look a bit like a hotel lobby in places.

    Maybe I'm just too used to small rooms in London!

  11. What an incredible home, would never have thought this would be his style though. I love the wooden ceiling beams and the dramatic chandeliers and the just the whole feel!
