Ryan Reynolds and his marriage with Blake Lively can top the “couple goals” chart. Just a month after welcoming their fourth baby, this power couple casually strolled on the streets of New York after sealing a billion-dollar Mint mobile deal. Contrary to their lavish business affairs, the couple enjoys a quiet and regal pad in Pound Ridge, Westchester County. This Pound Ridge house works as a place to stay when they don’t have to attend meetings in Tribeca, Manhattan. While one house is cozy and tucked away, the Tribeca apartment is chic and has classic New York brick walls. 

But New York luxury apartments are a norm with every celebrity now. What represents this couple’s real taste is the house far away in the countryside.

Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively enjoy the countryside

In line with their classic taste, the couple chose to go earthen and dark with their paint colors. Located in a leafy southern city, the couple’s 11.65 acres property even has a barn! Not only is lots of nature around, but this home’s interiors also have daring dark colors. The actor also reportedly renovated his home, explaining the contrast between the natural outdoors and the modern dark interiors.

An interior design student, Artem Kropovinsky shares with Homes and Gardens a guide to paint your walls the right color. He says that rooms that are bigger, receive lots of natural light, and have a darker aesthetic in general. Thus, a darker color will be perfect for these. 

Reynolds and Lively sport a contemporary woody style and thus the bold shade of blue and black fit perfectly well. The design student also pointed out how the couple has smartly paired dark walls and furniture with spots of funky bright colors. Throw blankets, cushions, and lively (pun intended) art decor works great with this style. Lots of different lamps and light sources will add a great layer. 

And to enjoy this absolutely lush and serene lifestyle, the couple has strived hard every step of their time together. Together, they earn money and use it for good. 

The other side of their quiet lifestyle

Reynolds and Lively donated a massive $1M to support the Actors’ Guild Strikes. The actors are raising their voices against unfair pay and job insecurity. Besides this occasion, this couple has always shown philanthropy. In order to boost the spirits of fans and support their Wrexham club, Reynolds and Rob McElhenney donated $5.5K to a charity football match. 

Their philanthropic work goes hand-in-hand with building their business. Reynolds recently sold Mint Mobile for a billion dollars just a month after his and Lively’s fourth child’s birth. This is the cherry on top of their family bond.
