In a 2,700-square-foot apartment previously owned by French architect Jacques Carlu, Gaultier is the third fashion designer given the opportunity to re-envision it. Jacques Carlu was the architect of the Palais de Chaillot in the 1930s, across from the Eiffel Tower, where the <a href="http://www.citechaillot.fr/">Cite de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine</a>, and a slew of other museums now occupy. Before Gaultier, the apartment had been transformed into a classy white party by Martin Margiela in 2009 and a Baroque wonderland by Christian Lacroix in 2008.

For homeowners on a budget, the Internet is your best bet when making upgrades. “What we should all really be excited about is how much access we have to furniture and accessories at any price,” Berkus said. “I started my design firm pre-Internet and now we source 85 percent of what we use online because we have so much incredible access online.” Berkus recommends shopping globally by scouring websites like ebay.fr for more unique pieces of furniture that will stick with you for many years. 1stdibs and One Kings Lane are other good options.

"Houston’s one of those undiscovered cities when it comes to food," says local architect Brett Zamore, who moved to Houston from New Haven, Connecticut, in 1995.
