Today, Architectural Digest is welcomed by Bryce Dallas Howard to tour her charming cottage in New York. Growing up in Connecticut and falling in love with her husband at NYU, the East Coast is full of happy memories for the 'Argylle' star, so it made perfect sense as a retreat from the LA working life. The couple had their hearts stolen by a quaint 18th-century replica cottage. Inspired by legends Jane Austen and Wes Anderson, Howard enlisted the help of designer and family friend Claire Thomas to brighten the previously dark interiors, injecting each room with vibrant colors and fabrics. But what makes the home truly special are the familial touches, from her grandmother’s extensive depression glassware collection to the piano she learned to play as a child. “In the end it became so much less about aesthetics and more about the place we spend our lives…It’s beautiful to be in a space where I’m able to dream about a future.”

I often find these super celebrity houses quite over-the-top, but this is actually beautiful.

Oh I love it when we get houses with actual history in this series! With details and textures and charm, none of that hypermodern sterile stuff.

The house is just as beautiful and down-to-earth as she is.

One of my faves. Love her use of color at a time when homes are so void of it. It was done perfectly and I could move in and not change a single thing😊

Her laugh is infectious 😄

Keeping the dolls that her grandma made around the house is very heartwarming. I saw a little girl in her for a moment.

This house is why America loves the Howard family. Relatable! Stunning but accessible, films and homes!!!

I have never seen a house match a person quite so well, it seems SO her. Just perfect!

Finally, a house with personality. None of that beige and white sterile homes. Love it

This seems like the kind of space that would still look gorgeous and feel somewhat peaceful and comfortable even after it's thoroughly lived-in.

It is like a tiny doll house. I loved every bit of it! It is soothing.

I love Bryce’s style with each room having its own personality. Very cozy with simple lines, none of that over the top decor. I especially love her stove and her large chair to snuggle up in and read a book.

Doesn’t it show what Dallas is all about? She is very grounded in family, and memories. ❤

This house is so nice. And is a very, very "normal", relatable house.
