“We tried to imagine what [architect Howard B.] Zook would have done if he were designing it today,” she says.
“The furniture we chose feels in line with the architecture,” says Moore, “but there’s nothing so precious that a little wear and tear from kids or dogs would be a calamity.” The couple share two pups, Joni and Jackson.
Her feelings for the newly completed place are the exact opposite of those forher former home, where she spent a decade and a half, including the 6 years thatshe was married to singer, Ryan Adams, who shedivorced in 2015.

“I lived there for 15 years, and even though the house went through several iterations, it never felt wholly mine,” she says. “I bought it when I was 18. I really didn’t know myself, and I never felt secure enough to bring a lot of people there.”
Now, she and Goldsmith appear to be settling in for the long haul, even springing for an extravagant installation: “Terrazzo is a dying art, costly and laborious,” she says of her custom fireplace ledge, which she dubs, “so worth it.”
