New LA Mansion for Elton John + David Furnish Brings Jimmy Reed Inside for Glass Tiling
Jimmy Reed, recognized as the best of the very best installers of glass mosaic tile pools and spas by the Hollywood stars, was recently asked to bring his talents inside for a change and showcase his artistic craftsmanship at the ultra-exclusive new multi-million dollar Los Angeles home of legendary pop icon Sir Elton John and his husband, David Furnish. With a growing family, the couple needed more space and found their perfect new digs in a single-level, 4,216 square foot modernist style home located in the exclusive Trousdale Estates, a glamorous enclave of mid-century style mansions in Beverly Hills.
The custom interior decoration program was created by Martyn Lawrence Bullard, the multi-award winning LA-based designer and star of Bravo’s reality series “Million Dollar Decorators.” The internationally-acclaimed interior designer has a long list of awards and an even longer list of high-profile clients that now enjoy his detailed and sophisticated interiors. Martyn Lawrence Bullard just happens to be a very close personal friend of Elton John’s growing family, and just a few years back (2009) he famously decorated the couple’s previous LA digs on the 20th floor of the celebrity-filled Sierra Towers in West Hollywood.
