Sabrina Carpenter has just added a new property to her portfolio, and we do want the house tour, please, please, please. A glimpse inside shows that the interiors are absolutely stunning.
The singer bought the tranquil Spanish-style home in the Hollywood Hills estate for $4.4 million, and every element is incredibly gorgeous. We're especially impressed by her living room idea, which, like the rest of the house, was designed by House of Rolison. It's soaked in a gorgeous color palette of cream, brown, and deep green. Sumptuous textures bring the earthy color palette to life, while an abundance of curves gives the luxury space an organic feel. It feels classic California, but with a warm twist.
Sabrina's living room color idea is gorgeous in her space, but it's also incredibly versatile and timeless. Homes & Gardens spoke with interior designers to help you understand what makes Sabrina's gorgeous room work so well together, and how you can recreate her style in your own home. We also curated an edit of products to help you bring this palette into any space. Let's step inside.

Recreate Sabrina's Look at Home
For a dose of depth, add this moss green pillow cover to the heart of your sofa or armchair. Made from a soft velvet, it's hard to resist this luxurious staple.
Generous in size, this burl wood coffee table exudes timeless luxury. Rich in texture, it'll bring warmth and a lived-in feel to any living room.
Nothing says Spanish Revival/ Mediterranean style like an oversized urn. This statement piece deserves a place on any patio, where it looks stunning in the summer light. It will offer the hint of European charm you've been waiting for.
A marble side table with clean lines, like Gwyneth's, contrasts with the softness elsewhere in the room, such as the sculptural chairs, textural rug, and flowing drapes.
Inspired by Sabrina's, this rug showcases a traditionally inspired design that exemplifies a timeless style of elegance, comfort, and sophistication. The meticulously woven construction of this piece means it'll stay beautiful while providing natural charm to any room.
This classic piece is in a higher price bracket but is sure to stand the test of time with its nod to mid-century style, nubby textured upholstery and wide swivel base. It would work alone as well as in a pair.
So, why is Sabrina's color palette so perpetually popular? Not only is it versatile, but it seems to never go out of style. Selena Reif, founder and principal designer of Selena Michele Interiors in San Diego, California, says: 'Green, brown, and cream is such a gorgeous color scheme and the perfect grouping of colors to introduce that organic and earthly vibe to your space that everyone is after these days. While we become more and more connected to screens and tech, we are craving a return to nature and the beauty of the natural world - exactly the feeling that this color scheme evokes.'
Alexa Kingery, founder and principal designer at Alexa Kingery Interiors, adds: 'One word: nature. If you are designing a space with a nature-inspired color scheme, it is guaranteed to be timeless. Green, brown, and cream is the perfect combination to pull this off, and also happen to be three of my favorite colors in design.'
There are certain elements that makes the earthy color palette especially suited to Sabrina Carpenter's space worth considering to replicate it. 'This color scheme works especially well in this room because it pulls from the landscape framed in the windows, bringing the surrounding nature in and making it part of the room,' explains Selena. 'It’s almost as if the windows are pieces of art themselves in this space, and all the furnishings were selected to enhance the view. We all know that spending time in nature is what calms our nervous systems - bringing that color scheme into our living spaces has the same calming effect.'
From luxury spaces down to the tiniest living room, a version of Sabrina's space can live in any home. Selena advises: 'Create this look at your own home by choosing pieces in colors that you would find in nature: the many shades of greens you see in leaves, the browns of different types of woods and earth, and creams inspired by sunlit grasses or afternoon light. You can elevate this effect in your own home even more when you tie the colors to natural materials: soft plaster on your walls or a natural wool rug to bring in the cream, a carved wooden coffee table or exposed beams to bring in the brown, or even a gorgeous indoor plant to bring in the green.'

Alexa recommends: 'If you want to pull this combo off in your own home, use the brown and cream as your base. These colors are great for the flooring and walls. Whether you have wood floors or limestone tile floors, you can paint your walls cream or even a beautiful brown, like virtual taupe by Sherwin-Williams. Keep most of your furniture neutral, and allow one piece to pop. Other subtle ways of incorporating green is by using greenery, and muted earthy green tones in art and pillows, just like the space featured here.'
No matter the year, cream, brown and green will always look timeless. This versatile and ever popular combination is the perfect way to future-proof your home.
