Nicole Kidman.

First impressions are absolutely vital, a fact of which global icon Nicole Kidman is well aware. Last year, the actress shared a glimpse of her home’s façade, and its impeccable curb appeal is a masterclass in exterior design. Nicole’s front door color is painted in a beautiful, slightly glossy black that sits in perfect contrast against her cream-colored house, framed by dark green, climbing ivy.
