Paris Ceramics flooring. Aga John rugs.\nThe house that actor Rob Lowe (in the living room) shares with his wife, Sheryl, in southern California is \"a visual feast,\" says interior designer Monique Lafia.\nThe furniture placement in the living room makes the space suitable for large functions but encourages intimate conversations. \"For our lifestyle, the house needed to be multipurpose ,\" says Rob Lowe. Sofa fabric by Old World Weavers. Bergamo drapery fabric. Aga John area rug.\nFrench doors in the living room enhance the house's fluid indoor- outdoor spaces. Architect Don Nulty kept some walls and the foundation of the original 1958 structure, designed by James E. Dolena, and constructed the Lowes' residence with nontoxic materials.\n\"The dining room is elegant and grand, but it's also warm and inviting, just like the rest of the house,\" says Lafia. \"It's supposed to be a usable family space.\" At the couple's request, the designer applied the principles of f\u00EAng shui in laying out the interiors.\nIn his office, the actor reads scripts of The West Wing, relaxes with friends and conducts business meetings while enjoying the sound of \"kids running around, coming in from the pool,\" he says.

It is situated on six acres with citrus groves and has views of the ocean and the mountains.
