Congratulations are in order. NBCLosAngeles.com is reporting that L.A. interior designer Michael Smith has been put in charge of making over the private quarters of the White House.

From his official web bio:

Smith has consistently developed a style that has been characterized as a delicate blend of “European tradition and American modernism.”

A native of California, Smith studied interior design at the Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles.

Smith is no stranger to celebrity homes, having previously worked with Steven Spielberg, Dustin Hoffman and Michelle Pfeiffer.
