Stay neutral
Amanda's house looks as if it has been in style for a photoshoot. It is impeccably decorated and incredibly stylish. With gray walls, dark stone floors and white furniture plush, neutral palette of ownership is the key when it comes to re-create the mood.

Search seagrass
There are a large carpet of seagrass in the lobby and a runner Amanda of seagrass on the stairs. These natural carpets are a staple in interior design, and are very forgiving when it comes to intensive use. They add texture and depth to a room too.

Bring inside green
If you pay attention during the film, it quickly becomes apparent how many houseplants are used. They line the hallway and staircase, and combine with seagrass matting to create a soothing atmosphere.

Build a home theater
This is slightly less feasible for most, but a home theater is a must for a producer trailer film. Why not invest in a projector, however, and screen movies on a large white sheet hung in your living room or garden?

Opt for metal framed windows
the light steel frame windows are evident throughout the house. They create a contemporary feel with a touch of the old world, thus fit well into the / home Californian Mediterranean style.

Make sure your bed is large and beautiful
the neutral theme continues in the bedroom of Amanda, which is decorated in white and gray and full of plush fabrics. One of the defining characteristics of the room is the bed size Say less is more does not quite work here, and we expect nothing less than a high power setting. If you want to make the extra-luxurious, opt for remote controlled blinds so you do not actually have to leave your bed capacious.

go for the clay tiles
neutral tones and open balconies characterize the Mediterranean style home. A great way to achieve this look is through the terracotta tiles, but, okay, it's probably best saved for warmer climates.

squeeze in a home gym
This is like home theater - either you have the space or you do not. If you find yourself with an extra room in your house, create your own fitness center and stay in shape all year.
