The Dallas home of decorator Michelle Nussbaumer is a testament to her unique style and love for layering and collecting decor. Nussbaumer's house is a vibrant, high-energy space filled with color, pattern, and activity, a stark contrast to the initially calm and symmetrical exterior. The house is a reflection of Nussbaumer's artistic eye and her theater and set-design studies, with a mix of inherited furniture, newer pieces, and travel mementos. Nussbaumer's approach to decorating is one of continuous addition and embellishment, rather than a complete overhaul. She embraces a Hollywood Regency vibe, adding layers of color and pattern to create a theatrical and personal space. Nussbaumer's cosmopolitan flair and penchant for globe-trotting are evident in her design book, Wanderlust: Interiors That Bring the World Home, published by Rizzoli. Her design philosophy revolves around creating a space that is both functional and visually captivating, with a focus on layering and collecting items that tell a story. Nussbaumer's home is a living, breathing space that is constantly evolving, with furniture and decor being moved around and reupholstered as needed. Her approach to decorating is a celebration of life and a reflection of her unique personality and style.
