It’s no secret that maximalism is the design style of choice in Jonathan Scott and Zooey Deschanel‘s NYC home. The couple, collaborating with designer Young Huh, transformed the abandoned ‘80s office into a posh downtown duplex with walls clad in bold hues, busy patterns, and striped drapery. The busy designs might feel like a lot to take in at first glance, but design pro Scott made sure schemes felt cohesive in their home, carrying palettes, patterns, and materials across the apartment’s over 2,600 square feet—especially in their shared bathrooms.
In a recent Instagram post, Scott shared a carousel of the home’s bath designs, and, to no one’s surprise, fans flooded the comments with praise. One commenter writes, “Gorgeous, but homey @ the same time!!” and another jokes, “we’re moving into the first loo!” While everyone was busy musing on cabinets and wallpaper, we couldn’t help but notice a few repeating details in the design schemes.

The first was the bold green and blue hues carried throughout the designs. Whether it be through wallpaper, tile, or paint, the pair clearly prefer to keep their bath spaces cool-toned, despite fixture tones or finishes. The cohesive color palette further ties the rooms together, linking them through hue and function alike.
The other design detail that stood out to us was the geometric design scheme. Circular and honeycomb details appear in three of the four featured baths—coincidence? We think not. Circles were traditionally incorporated into interior designs to symbolize harmony, flow, and a sense of softness, the perfect vibes for a space that focuses on relaxation and unwinding. They became particularly popular in the Art Deco era of design, which heavily influenced the couple’s old-world-inspired designs.
Whether you love or hate Deschanel and Scott’s commitment to maximalism, one thing is sure: their home is overflowing with personal style. Is there any better way to decorate?
