Designer: Bridgid Coulter, principal, Bridgid Coulter Design, Santa Monica

“I started as if they were really my clients,” said Coulter, “what do they love, what do they care about and what would they want to blend their two worlds and celebrate their love.”

Coulter said her design also blends vintage with modern and elements of European tradition with California casual.

Coulter included artwork by Inslee Fariss, an artist Markle is reported to collect, and chose a vintage cane desk and modern four poster bed as a nod to the couple’s trip to Botswana.

A pristine, turn of the 19th century Goyard trunk Coulter spotted at the Paris Flea Market represents luxury, history and travel, while a 1960s chandelier with icicle-shaped crystals bathes the room in romance.

Coulter said, “The ombre drapery feels like California, but formal drapes are very European and modern … it shows generations of color, and they’re merging generations of family.”

Brass bedside lamps are designed with the classic masks of the dramatic arts, “and that’s an homage to her life as an actor.”
