Nathan Turner approaches decorating with instinct and confidence, and little interest in rigid rules. His residential work includes homes (Mindy Kaling, Amanda Peet, Sarah Jessica Parker, to name a few) shaped by color, pattern, and a relaxed sense of order. A fourth-generation Californian, he brings a sunlit ease to interiors that feel as though they’ve come together over time. A fixture in California entertaining culture and author of I Love Decorating, Turner has built a practice around the idea that homes should feel collected, not composed. Here are the objects and references he returns to when shaping a well-lived-in space
