Known for her effortless glamour and refined style, Kate Upton was not the celebrity we envisioned living with whimsical interiors and bold, unique colour palettes. And yet that’s exactly what we found when she gave fans a rare glimpse inside her stunning Manhattan home.<\/p>\n

With so many ways to add personality to your home<\/a>, it can be all too easy to become overwhelmed with colour, pattern and accessory options. However, the chaos of adding happy colours<\/a> to your home is a worthwhile one when the result is something like Kate Upton’s incredible Manhattan apartment.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Inviting Architectural Digest into her New York residence (on Instagram @archdigest<\/a>), the American model has given fans a surprising insight into her bold and colourful family home.<\/p>\n

Inside Kate Upton’s Manhattan home <\/p>\n

\u201cI didn\u2019t want our home to feel like a hotel room,\u201d the supermodel tells Architectural Digest. \u201cWe\u2019re a young family. We have kids and a dog. We wanted it to feel like us.\u201d It’s safe to say she’s achieved that.<\/p>\n

Kate’s home is a beautiful showcase of some of the biggest interior colour trends this year<\/a>, from her mustard and mulberry living room to the statement green kitchen. But it’s not all painted walls and blocked hues. No, the actress has also brought personality to the space with decadent murals and unique home accessories.<\/p>\n

The murals, found in the bedroom, kitchen and dining, vary in pattern but all present a similar Japanese style and motif. While murals aren’t a low-effort interior design trick<\/a>, they are a great way of transforming your home into something unique and special.<\/p>\n

Kate and her husband, Justin Verlander, told Architectural Digest that their aim with their penthouse was to make it feel less like a hotel and more like a family home. Whilst it certainly has the makings of a boutique hotel, it’s clear the family’s personality has been considered in each room.<\/p>\n

With multiple large, comfortable seating areas showing off the latest sofa trends<\/a>, and cosy yet spacious dining spaces. We love how the bar stools at the kitchen island breakfast bar are the same design as the ones nestled into the breakfast nook.<\/p>\n

Again, a clear sign that comfort has not been sacrificed in the name of style.<\/p>\n

Even if colour drenching your home<\/a> in trending hues isn’t for you, there’s still so much inspiration to be taken from Kate’s home. The smallest touches, like the fury throw pillows in the dining space and the statement fruit bowl, are proof that fun design choices needn’t be overwhelming.<\/p>\n

When we see these lavish celebrity homes, it’s all too easy to see them as overly ambitious, but they’re a great source of interior ideas straight from high-end designers. Plus, there are always similar products and pieces available from our favourite affordable retailers to recreate the look.<\/p>\n
