Serena Williams transformed her waterfront property in Miami with help from her sister, Venus Williams, who owns a design firm. The renovation took three years and was completed in July 2020. The project focused on practicality, allowing for family enjoyment instead of just traditional formalities. Serena expressed admiration for the design, particularly the foyer, designed to feel like an art gallery. This reflects both sisters' desire for the space to evoke emotional connections for guests and the family.
"I was moving away from Venus for the first time in my life, so I wanted it to be really meaningful. I'm really good at playing tennis; I'm not as good at interiors. But I was able to learn through just watching Venus."
"I am not a fan of just having spaces to have them. Maybe some people use their formal living rooms, but we don't. So we created a space that she can actually use and enjoy and live with the art, and invite other people to absorb it and have that emotional connection as soon as you walk in. It sets the tone for the rest of the home."
"When you walk in, it's like walking into an art gallery. That's my favorite part of the house. It's so unique. I've never seen anything like it."
