We’re big fans of Los Angeles-based artist Esther Pearl Watson and have been following her work for years. In fact, one of her paintings takes pride of place on a wall at BoutiqueHomes headquarters in Topanga. Often described as “faux naive”, much of her art recalls a childhood in rural Texas where her space-race-obsessed father […]
Six years ago, K’era Morgan walked away from a successful career in public relations for the sake of her emotional health. She chose instead to pursue her love of art, which she had put to one side after finishing a BFA in 1998. It’s a decision that we wholeheartedly applaud because we’ve been able to […]
It’s that time of the year again! When we start seeing traveling pines strapped to cars around the neighborhood, and around the world. It’s a winter ritual that ushers in the Christmas season as well as the pagan festival of light during the winter solstice. We were inspired by seeing these trees on the roads […]

What is it about the A-frame that inspires so much devotion? A little triangular cabin, hidden away in the forest or perched on a mountainside, this cool structure has an enduring popularity that defies time and place. It may be the simplicity of its lines. Or the fact that it’s all roof. Or the sheer […]

At BoutiqueHomes we love getting to know the stories behind our properties, but this time we were happy to learn that the owner of Villa G in Umbria, Italy had an interesting story as well. Kristian Septimius is a Danish photographer educated in England, in 1987 he started his own studio in Copenhagen. His photography style has been […]
Australian photographer Tom Blachford first caught our eyes two years ago, when the first Midnight Modern series was born. If you had told us that his lurking around at 1 am in the morning, wondering around in the darkness would lead to work being featured in almost every design publication worldwide and become their own […]
At BoutiqueHomes, we love the idea of simple luxury. When we say luxury villas, we aren’t talking about homes with all the bells and whistles and some extra bling thrown in. But to get what we mean, it helps to look at the history – and changing meaning – of ‘luxury’.
Built, designed, and envisioned by Heinz Legler and Veronique Lievre, founders of Boutique Homes, Verana not only reflects the elevated taste level of its owners, it also reflects the idea and purpose often times discovered when traveling somewhere very remote
