Another philosophy Corbin and Amanda share? The virtue of thrift. "We love scouring flea markets and garage sales," she reveals, giddily recounting their best bargains: a vintage wicker rocker for $40, the living room's swap-meet Chesterfield sofa reupholstered with Ikea linen, even the kitchen's drawer pulls. "Twenty-five dollars for the bag of 50!" she crows.
In this photo: Amanda painted the wooden Moroccan settee with basic gray primer and found the Berber rug in Marrakech. The large oil portrait is by contemporary Scottish painter Peter White; the oak-and-steel coffee table hails from H.D. Buttercup.

Digby poses next to a table fashioned from French marble and steel. The pouf is by Dosa, and the British landscape was a gift. The wood floors are painted Gray Timber Wolf by Benjamin Moore.
Bright idea: Turn a hurricane into an electrified lantern with a swag-lamp kit.

Their house also has an incredibly personal feel to it, since the duo renovated and decorated the place themselves. "We like to take traditional and mix it with something more progressive. That's what life should be: Understand where you came from, and pay tribute," Corbin says. He practiced what he preaches by incorporating hand-me-down furniture from his mother, The Young and the Restless diva Jeanne Cooper.
In this photo: Pottery Barn's jute rug anchors Corbin and Amanda's bedroom, where a Room & Board steel bed frame wears a duvet by Toast and a purple throw from West Elm. A swap meet yielded the nightstands and $10 painting. The pillows are by Yves Delorme.
Bright idea: A large piece of art would've competed with the bed frame. The wee work above the pillows? Just right.
