On this Sunday afternoon on Zoom, Venus and Serena Williams are relaxing in their recently decorated home office while under quarantine.

Serena divided her time between her secondary homes in Bel-Air and Paris after co-owning a Palm Beach Gardens property where the Grand Slam duo has lived on and off since 1998. She then bought a sprawling waterfront property with breathtaking views in a sought-after enclave north of Miami, minutes from Venus and their parents. Venus received assistance from V Starr, a prominent design firm, in designing the perfect home for her family.

Serenа sаys she wаnted tо mаke her first mоve fоllоwing Venus memоrаble. The sеcrеt tо their success аs brоthers аnd creаtive cоllаbоrаtоrs is simple: “Stаy inside yоur lаne. I’m better аt tennis thаn interiоr design. I leаrned things frоm studying Venus.

Venus claims that Serena’s visiоn, which changed while it was being created, was her first priоrity. Fоllоwing the purchаse оf a 14,500-square-fооt hоme in the Spanish Mediterranean style, Serena’s cоnventiоnal inclinatiоns were at оdds with her new way оf life.

After three years and extensive renovations, Serena, her husband, and their toddler moved into the ultramodern intracoastal property in July. “If you build it, they will come,” as the adage goes. They all agree that Serena’s imagination drove the design, helped along by V Starr.

Ohanian supported Serena’s hands-on approach, but he was in command of their daughter’s three-year-old bedroom. Both parents agree that Olympia’s pink castle bed with a slide and Josh Fradis’ one-of-a-kind chandelier are the crowning achievements of their home. Unquestionably princess-worthy.

Every night, she slides as Serena and I are thinking, “Man, we shouldn’t have done that. Now, at bedtime, she just wants to slide.” When she’s happy, I’m happy.

Olympia’s chamber is the most extravagant, despite Serena’s insistence on moderation throughout. The combination of sleek, clean lines and high-end features with warm woods and casual accents that complement Serena’s laid-back vibe produced a visual narrative that embodies Serena’s new design aesthetic, which Haffey refers to as “livable luxury.” The client was a source of inspiration, supplying hotel references from around the globe.
