Last year President Obama and the First Lady selected Santa-Monica-based Michael S. Smith to transform the private quarters of the White House. Michelle Obama said, “Michael shares my vision for creating a family-friendly feel to our new home and incorporating some new perspectives from some of America’s greatest artists and designers.”
Over his distinguished career, Smith has designed homes for Steven Spielberg, Dustin Hoffman and Cindy Crawford and his work has been showcased in two best-selling books from Rizzoli Publishing; ‘Elements of Style’ (2007) and ‘Houses’ (2008). His style has been characterized as a blend of “European tradition and American modernism.” In celebration of President’s Day and Smith’s appointment to the Committee for the Preservation of the White House, here are some beautiful images from his portfolio.
Happy President’s Day!
