"Midwest Meets Malibu\nActor Richard Dean Anderson Builds on his Minnesota Roots\nRichard Dean Anderson's residence in Malibu, California, is worlds away from his hometown of Minneapolis. Yet architects Erik Evens and Patricia Baker, of KAA Design Group, and interior designer Adaline Fagen, of Espace Design, were able to create the feeling of a midwestern farmhouse. Anderson wanted the home to \"speak to his childhood in Minnesota,\" says Fagen.\nThe living area. Necklaces, Kneedler|Fauch\u00E8re Imports. Drapery fabric, Clarence House. Club chairs, Ralph Lauren Home. Tufenkian carpet. Hanging light, Holly Hunt. Wood bench, Mimi London. Wing chair, low table, stools and sofa, Gregorius|Pineo.\nAnderson with his dogs, Andy and Daisy.\n\"It's imperative that I am able to spend a lot of time outdoors,\" says Anderson. He and his 10-year-old daughter, Wylie, enjoy the ocean views from the outdoor living area that Fagen designed. \"Adaline understood that I was a little more casual, lived more of a rustic life,\" he notes. The pool pavilion is visible beyond the veranda. Firewood basket and lanterns from Kneedler|Fauch\u00E8re Imports. Drapery fabric, Holly Hunt.\nAnderson prefers the room be very dark when he sleeps, so Fagen used a combination of Roman shades and draperies in the master bedroom. Dog-motif pillows and velvet pillows on bed, Ralph Lauren Home. Lamp, side table and occasional table, Gregorius|Pineo. Daybed, Dan Marty Design.\nFagen describes the master bath as both \"masculine and functional.\" Roman shade fabric, Clarence House. Limestone for pullman tops and ledge, Exquisite Surfaces. Tub and copper faucets, Waterworks. Wall stone, Walker Zanger.\n\"I like the simplicity of barn structures and farmhouses,\" Anderson says. \"I've never lived on a farm but always envisioned it.\" He concedes that the design \"took on more of a ranch look\" once finished. The idea for the house's zinc roof stems from his youth: His parents' first home had a sheet-metal roof, and Anderson liked it. \"I made it known I didn't want to live in a house without a corrugated-metal roof,\" he says. Umbrella, Giati."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
