Giada De Laurentiis was born in Rome and grew up in a classic Italian household, where the kitchen was always bustling and cooking and eating were the social activities that bonded an extended family. But hers was no ordinary family. With a famous movie-producer grandfather (Dino De Laurentiis) and an actress grandmother, showbiz was just as much in her blood as cooking. So it’s no surprise that after studying culinary arts in France, she eventually landed her own show, Everyday Italian, on the Food Network. Her third book, Everyday Pasta, was released this year by Clarkson Potter.

Spaces designed include the celebrity Varenna kitchen which will be used to shoot Giada’s television show “Everyday Italian”. Designed for the client’s and for Kohler USA, four bathrooms which will be used in marketing and television advertising for Kohler. The home also includes complete design of three bedrooms, master bedroom and en-suite bathroom over looking the Pacific ocean, Poliform walk in dressing room, main entrance area, living room and dining room, outdoor shower area, and front entrance enclosure.

Giada is currently shooting her new season called Giada At Home with the backdrop of the set duplicating the kitchen at home and will feature several segments shot in Giada & Todd’s home.
