A guide to Emma Chamberlain’s dreamy LA home

Here’s how to imitate the YouTuber’s viral interior space

When Emma Chamberlain’s house tour dropped earlier this year, we all collectively coveted the space and criticised our younger selves for not having the foresight to start a YouTube channel and become viral sensations. The bright and airy LA home is an eclectic mix of earthy tones, one-of-a-kind art and marble surfaces. Emma described it as “a mixture of everything I love.”
Essentially, it looks like a dream life Pinterest board and that’s pretty much how it started out. “I’m a mood board type of girl,” Emma told Architectural Digest. “I scoured every corner of the internet, every weird, deep hole on Pinterest.” With the help of interior designers Ashley Drost and Marie Trohman from Proem Studio, she brought the moodboard to life.
While our lives can’t all look like Pinterest boards with multi-million dollar mansions and swimming pools at 21-years-old, you can still take some aesthetic cues from Emma’s home tour to create a tranquil sanctuary for yourself. Instead of beating yourself up for not starting a YouTube channel as a pre-teen, shop our edit of earthy, minimalist homewares to give your space an Emma Chamberlain-esque update.
BRIGHT GREEN
Peach Flamingo Flower with a Chalk Regent Pot
£32.00
One of the first things you notice about Emma’s house is how bright and spacious it is. Green foliage is visible through the many windows and houseplants are in nearly every room. Recreate this effect with these waxy peach flowers and rich green leaves that add a bright and air purifying touch to your space.
COFFEE BREAK
The Lineman Print
£25.00
There’s a cute story behind the art in Emma’s home. Most of the paintings are done by her dad whose colourful signature style fits right in. This print from BLANC is equally vibrant. Plus, it depicts a Saturday morning making coffee which is one of Emma’s favourite activities.
CONTEMPORARY CASUAL
Black-striped Jute Rug
£125.00£249.00
Rugs are the foundation of nearly every room in Emma’s house and they always match their surroundings. This striped one from Piglet In Bed is a bold and contemporary piece handwoven in India, with 100% natural black cotton. It’s designed to complement most interior styles, adding depth, character and a wonderfully natural texture to any room.
CHECK MATE
Hand Painted Check Cushion
£50.00
Neutral homewares help cultivate a cosy, cabinlike feel in Emma’s home. This check cushion has been hand painted onto a soft recycled calico. Each cushion is unique with colour variations being part of the charm. You may even see faint pencil marks from when the design was being placed before painting, matching the unique, artistic atmosphere of Emma’s deeply personal space.
PEANUT BUTTER
Feel Protein Bar - Peanut
£22.00
One of the paintings in Emma’s home is of a peanut butter aisle at the supermarket. She chose it because she ate a lot of peanut butter as a kid. These plant-based chocolate bars give you that peanut butter taste with extra protein. A kitchen cupboard essential.
LIGHT, BRIGHT AND HAPPY
Halo SAD Therapy Light
£219.00
Perhaps the most enviable fixture of Emma’s home is the amount of natural light it gets, but sadly, we can’t all live in a sunny LA home with lots of windows. If you’re stuck in a cold, dark room that gets approximately 30 minutes of natural light per day this time of year, consider investing in a SAD lamp. This one from Lumie simulates sunlight to boost your mood and energy. Plus, it looks cute too.
CLEAN HANDS
Exfoliating Hand Cleanser
£19.00
Add a little luxury to your everyday with Pelegrims gently exfoliating hand cleanser that helps repair and hydrate the skin while looking like a beautiful ornament in its own right. Crushed walnut shell buffs away dead skin cells while English Ortega Grape Vine Extract leaves hands feeling soft and healed.
