Rich, dark tones abound.

Antonio Banderas and his ex, Melanie Griffith, have listed the Los Angeles home that they've owned together for more than 15 years. It's a dramatic estate, dubbed "Italian Revival" in the listing, that was designed in 1925 by the architect of the Hoover Dam, Gordon B. Kaufmann. Listing photos reveal dark, rich furnishings that suit the estate's classic L.A. amalgam of Spanish and Moorish influences so popular a century or so ago. They're asking $16.1 million. (Click
The 15,110-square-foot mansion sits on a double lot in L.A.'s Hancock Park neighborhood. Banderas and Griffith bought the house in 1999 for $4.2 million, then the next year bought the 4,000-square-foot house next door for $1.3 million and tore it down to create their current 1.5-acre property.
Among the mansion's more impressive features is a double-height "banquet hall," according to the listing, and rather than a master bedroom suite, an entire "master wing" with his-and-hers baths and dressing rooms. It has seven bedrooms and nine baths. News of the listing was first reported by the Los Angeles Times and by the Wall Street Journal.
Griffith filed for divorce from Banderas last year after 18 years of marriage. They said in a statement at the time: "We have thoughtfully and consensually decided to finalize our almost twenty years marriage in a loving and friendly manner honoring and respecting each other, our family and friends and the beautiful time we have spent together."
