Kathy Hilton Shows Off the Gorgeously Updated Backyard at Her Bel-Air Home
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills newcomer has transformed her outdoor space into a "timeless, eclectic, and modern" oasis.
Kathy Hilton's famous backyard — which inspired the set of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 11 reunion — just got a major upgrade. The Bel-Air homeowner partnered up with her designer Mike Moser of The Eye Agency and Amazon Home to transform her yard into a glam-but-comfy gathering space for friends and family, and the results are epic.
When describing the alfresco makeover to PEOPLE, Kathy said that she wanted her backyard transformation to happen quickly. "I wanted to have it look nice for my daughter Paris' bridal shower," she shared. Going for a "timeless, eclectic, and modern" vibe, Kathy and her designer added a new outdoor dining set to the yard. They also added more seating around the fireplace and threw in updated accessories such as new outdoor pillows and table linens.
The new yard is both chic and inviting. It has wicker baskets that Kathy smartly repurposed as planters, as well as a navy-blue umbrella to complete the dining set. Plus, the space has major visual appeal thanks to an expertly curated mix of materials. "I've got fabric, I've got metal, I've got wood, stone, wicker," Kathy said. "There are layers of texture."
Thrilled with the results, Kathy said that the yard is: "Definitely the hub of the family. And all my friends and my children's friends... even when the girls are out of town, their friends come and I'm the mom to them too." Sounds hunky dory to us!
