Few properties uphold the eternal grandeur of Jennifer Aniston's Bel Air home. Designed by architect A. Quincy Jones, it's a mid-century masterpiece that's rivalled only by its Japanese-style garden, the product of celebrated designer Marcello Villano.
On the celebrity style desk, we keep returning to Jennifer Aniston's Japanese-inspired garden whenever we need reminding of just how stunning a landscaped exterior can be. The grounds, in their entirety, rival a luxury resort, but nothing captures its splendor like the swimming pool area.
Jennifer's interior designer, the acclaimed Stephen Shadley, was responsible for continuing the East Asian-style aesthetic around the poolside. He decorated the wooden area with black upholstered sun loungers, accessorized with white cushions for a striking monochromatic look.
The curated outdoor furniture, paired with her vertical yucca planting and evergreen groundcovers, serves as the blueprint for a spa-like garden that, according to master gardeners, can be replicated on a smaller scale.
This soft, comfortable aluminum lounge set is the perfect way to add some Jennifer-inspired charm to your patio. Featuring an aluminum frame with water-resistant cushions, this set offers a fresh take on a classic design and will look stunning alongside any pool area.
This stylish pillowcase is made of durable polyester with special coating to help water droplets slide off easily. They come in a black and white pattern, similar to the one seen on Jennifer Anniston's pillows (if you zoom in closely). It's an intricate addition to any poolside or patio.
This chaise lounge chair offers a sleek design that's perfect for poolside relaxation or sunbathing. It features a clean-lined aluminum frame with a matte black finish that's both weather and water-resistant, making it an ideal choice for your yard.
'Jennifer Aniston’s garden draws on Japanese design principles: tranquility, balance, and layered simplicity,' comments Thom Rutter, a master gardener and content editor at Homes & Gardens. He notes that her stunning vertical and groundcover planting contributes to the tranquility of her space, transforming it into a Zen paradise amid Los Angeles' chaos.
'The beautiful yuccas provide vertical interest and sculptural structure, their architectural form anchoring the space. Beneath them, a thoughtful underplanting of evergreen groundcovers – including prostrate rosemary, creeping juniper, and low-growing thyme. These bring a soft flush of seasonal color, creating a flowing, sea-like effect that's perfect for a poolside,' he says.
'The result is a lush, serene composition that feels both intentional and generous, celebrating restraint while offering richness. It’s a masterclass in how height and structure can harmonize with low-growing textures to cultivate calm.' Jennifer's garden is one of a kind, won't you agree? I'll be fixating on this photo for the rest of summer (and long beyond).
