This isn't the first time we're seeing pics of Kerry Washington's former home, but we just can't ever get enough.

The Scandal star brought in eco-designer Danny Seo to a do a green remodel of her tiny one-bedroom Los Angeles apartment back in 2009.

Seo takes a trip down memory lane for a story in the first issue of his new magazine, Naturally, Danny Seo.

"She handed me the keys and told me I could do whatever I want—she completely trusted me," Seo says.

One of our favorite pieces has to be the customized dog steps to Washignton's bed for her small pooch. Seo "reupholstered them with an antique Peruvian rug he found at a flea market," reads a photo caption in the mag.

He also did a quick, but chic revamp of Washington's inspiration board. "She had a bunch of corkboards hung in her office," Seo remembered. "It looked pretty tacky."

For the update, he stretched laundered canvas painter's tarp over the corkboards and secured it with thumbtacks.

The actress's only request was that Seo not hang any plates on the wall. "As a joke, when we did the big reveal, I put one plate up," he said. "It was the first thing she noticed."

We can only imagine what Washington's baby nursery looks like.

Among the other celebrity appearances in Seo's mag is a photo essay by supermodel Angela Lindvall of her L.A. home and a story and fashion spread of Justified actress Amy Smart's visit to the Alisal Guest Ranch & Resort in central California.
