Keyshawn feels that many people believes that because he's an athlete, he does not know or care about the design of his home. But Keyshawn is not your average athlete. He is a big investor in spec homes in states like Florida, North Carolina and New York - to name a few places. He was involved in the decorating aspects of many of these homes. It was noted that he developed an interest in design when he first bacame a homeowner.
Johnson who is constantly a guest in many hotels around the world takes time to read house and garden magazines. Added that he spend hours at Hennessy + Ingalls in Santa Monica just looking at architecture books.
Richard Landry who is the architect currently working on a mansion for Johnson in the Calabasas California area refer to Johnson as one who has a solid understanding of how design can enrich lives and of course, bank accounts.
Believe it or not, he is one of the few who can actually read an architectural plan and see the finish work. Keshawn is also know as someone who has a vision and is very open to process.
The common trend for many other athletes might be to invest in cars, clothes and diamonds. But for Johnson, he has developed a real estate portfolia to top it off, he has acquired a hands-on education in design from past projects that he was involved in. So whether is in the process of building a Mediterranean mansion similar to the one in Calabasas, or working on the interiors of a modern high-rise he is intune with what he wants. He thinks of the needs of his family as well as himself - clean and uncluttered.
