Tour Jen Atkin's house – the Ouai founder has listed her contemporary LA home for $4.2 million
Jen Atkin and her photographer husband Mike Rosenthal have listed their clean-lined LA home for $4.195 million.
The celebrity hairstylist, who tends to the tresses of everyone from the Kardashians to Chrissy Teigen, bought the home in 2018.
The couple brought Obermeyer Architecture onto the project and tapped interior design studio Maison Trouvaille to create the light, bright scheme in the five-bedroom, five bathroom home.

Modern black steel framed windows and doors let light flood into the home, and the open plan kitchen-lounge leads directly onto a beautiful terrace with squishy loungers invitingly sat next to the pool area.
The neutral palette is the perfect backdrop for statement oversized photography prints and art enhancing the walls around the house.
The kitchen mixes a Scandi feel with splashes of luxury, blending blond timber cabinets with sumptuous marble tops.
