Pamela Anderson Showcases ‘Funky Grandma’ Home in Canada

Pamela Anderson has captivated audiences at the UK premiere of *The Naked Gun* alongside co-star Liam Neeson. While the spotlight shines brightly on her red carpet appearances, Anderson finds solace in her newly renovated home in Ladysmith, Canada. The property, located on the east coast of Vancouver Island, has undergone a significant transformation this year, thanks to a multi-phase design project led by the Vancouver-based firm Studio Albertazzi.
A Unique Design Aesthetic
In an interview with *Western Living*, the firm’s principal, Francesca Albertazzi, described the interior design theme as embodying a “funky grandma” vibe. This playful term reflects the home’s nostalgic qualities, as the front room once served as a store operated by Anderson’s grandparents. The design combines elements of traditional charm with modern comforts, creating a space that is both inviting and whimsical.
The property, affectionately named Arcady, meaning “peaceful, rustic place,” spans over seven acres. It features five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a guest house, alongside a kitchen with a cozy breakfast nook adorned with floral cushions. The home also boasts a rustic chic basement and a picturesque potting shed, harmoniously blending indoor and outdoor charm. An alfresco dining area, illuminated by fairy lights, offers a romantic setting for evening meals amid lush greenery.
Trends in Home Design
While the “grandma” aesthetic may not be what one typically associates with a Hollywood star, Rachel Avery, Homes Editor at *HELLO!*, points out that this trend is gaining momentum. Traditional and retro interiors are overtaking modern design, featuring antique furniture and nostalgic patterns. Anderson’s home exemplifies this shift towards a cozy, lived-in atmosphere that resonates with many.
For those seeking to incorporate this style into their own spaces, Avery suggests simple adjustments, such as framing floral wallpaper to create instant vintage appeal.
Anderson’s Canadian retreat is not just a stylish escape; it holds deep sentimental value for her. She purchased the property from her grandparents 30 years ago, which has served as a family home for generations. It is where her parents lived after their marriage and where her two sons, Brandon and Dylan, took their first steps.
In a conversation with *Architectural Digest*, Anderson shared that gardening has become a bonding activity with her sons. “Both of my sons are very good at gardening, but Brandon has taken it to another level,” she noted, praising his meticulous planning and attention to detail. She added, “Dylan has the cool factor. He knows when things look good and peaceful and right.”
Pamela Anderson’s Ladysmith home is not only a reflection of her personal style but also a cherished space filled with family memories, bridging the past with the present. As she balances her public persona with her private life, this “funky grandma” retreat provides a sanctuary where she can unwind and reconnect with her roots.
