Some artists didn’t just paint—they built entire worlds where art and life blurred. Their homes became extensions of their imagination, turning everyday spaces into living masterpieces.


Carl Larsson – His Swedish home, Lilla Hyttnäs, was a cozy, colorful tribute to family life and folk art.

Salvador Dalí – His Portlligat home was as surreal as his paintings, featuring giant eggs, a pet ocelot, and eccentric sculptures.

Frida Kahlo – Her Casa Azul was a vibrant sanctuary, filled with folk art, lush gardens, and her personal relics.

Claude Monet – His Giverny garden was a painter’s dream, inspiring his famous Water Lilies series.

Georgia O’Keeffe – She found inspiration in New Mexico’s stark desert landscapes, making Ghost 

Ranch her artistic retreat.

William Morris – His Red House was a medieval-inspired haven, embodying his love for craftsmanship and storytelling.

Leonora Carrington – Her Mexico City home was a surreal wonderland of mystical creatures and magical symbols.


These artists lived their art, transforming their surroundings into places as captivating as their creations.
