As the worlds of fashion and interior design become more intertwined than ever, you now can have a look inside the stylish homes of men and women with a real eye for design. The person we are looking at is Barry’s Bootcamp CEO Joey Gonzalez and his airy villa in West Hollywood.
Gonzalez bought the property in 2016 for his parents. The bright, Mediterranean-inspired home, available to rent via One Fine Stay, was influenced by Gonzalez’s Italian mother, who – since moving to Chicago – has dreamt of a warm climate with indoor and outdoor living. He was inspired by Spanish colonial architecture, combining baroque elements with modernity, reflected in the white stucco exterior, wood beams and ornate tiling.
Take a look at his interiors influences, from key pieces to colour concepts.
THE DINNING ROOM
“The washed blues and greys of the dining room, mixed with the ironwork and wood were inspired by the Andalusian coast.

THE KITCHEN
“The kitchen was designed to feel wide open and clean. You can see the kitchen from every single communal room and it is truly where all parts of the home intersect.”
THE LIVING ROOM
“One of my favourite rooms – the living room. The vaulted ceilings mimic the arched window which was redone in a contemporary black steel. What you can’t see, is that behind the photographer, the old original wooden arched window was converted into a mirror and hangs directly opposite the new window.
THE BACKYARD
“The backyard is truly California. Space was optimised with a perfectly sized pool, which left room to plant a garden of herbs and vegetables to the right (not pictured). The design is meant to serve as a space to entertain as well as functionally serve its homeowner.”
THE MASTER BEDROOM
“The master is meant to feel outdoors. Not only does it feature an accordion sliding door which removes the wall between outside and in, you can actually see several elements from the comfort of your bed: water, fire, and earth.”
