See Inside Jessica Alba’s Colorful Beverly Hills Guesthouse
Business-savvy actress Jessica Alba has added another role to her list: landlord. The founder of The Honest Company is renting out her Beverly Hills guesthouse, which she purchased in 2002 for $1.1 million.
Although Jessica hasn’t lived there for some time, she says she has always had a fondness for the 2,286-square-foot home, which includes two bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms. As a frequent traveler, Jessica was inspired by The Bowery Hotel and Gramercy Park hotels in New York and called upon Consort Design to bring her vision to life. The four-storey space now acts as a luxury vacation rental.

The first living room uses a curated palette to highlight its California-cool vibe. A green sofa is the focal point of this room, standing out against camel leather chairs and a moody navy blue wall.
The home’s four floors are connected by an industrial corkscrew staircase, which inspired the old-world theme according to Consort co-founder Brandon Quattrone.
Contemporary art and bold patterns complement the home’s jewel-toned envelope with a mixture of cool and warm tones.
A royal blue den, which can be converted into a third bedroom, contains large windows that flood natural light into the space. White accents, such as a pendant light and drapes, stand out against the saturated walls.
A second living room with 20-foot ceilings uses the home’s vertical configuration to its advantage. Expansive windows overlook the hilltop views and a red shag rug grounds the space.
A small office nook on the outskirts of the living room offers a place to get work done. Geometric accessories and a chic silver mirror add style.
A sleek bar blends in with the living room’s sophisticated aesthetic while a vintage painting adds to the home’s old-world feel.
This monochromatic space makes us feel anything but blue. A mixture of shades and textures, courtesy of mid-century and vintage pieces, add dimension to this corner and create the illusion of being inside a jewelry box.
This principal bedroom shies away from the home’s blue theme and turns to a more neutral palette. A mid-century light fixture and ebony floors add contrast against the white walls.
To stay true to Jessica’s eco-friendly lifestyle, low-VOC paints, sustainable carpeting and organic mattresses were used to dress the home.
Vintage pieces, like this rotary telephone, add character to the principal bedroom.
