A Private Palm Springs Retreat for Design Lovers

Spend a relaxing weekend, or stay longer, in this distinctive 600-square-foot poolside studio, where authentic midcentury design meets contemporary comfort and quintessential Palm Springs indoor-outdoor living.

This is not a generic vacation rental. The studio has been thoughtfully furnished around an appreciation for California modernism, iconic furniture design, vintage materials, and the playful optimism of the midcentury era.

Original Midcentury Details, Thoughtfully Updated

One of the studio’s most distinctive features is the original Boomerang Formica kitchen bar, featuring the celebrated pattern first designed by Brooks Stevens in 1950 and refined by Raymond Loewy in 1954. This remarkable piece of postwar design has been preserved while the kitchen itself has been completely renovated with new stainless-steel appliances and contemporary amenities.

The result is a kitchen that retains its historical character while functioning beautifully for today’s guests. If there is something special you would like to have in the kitchen during your stay, just let us know and we will do our best to have it waiting for you when you arrive.

Throughout the living space, an eclectic collection of important midcentury furnishings creates a warm, highly personal environment. An Eames divider/shelving unit anchors the room alongside Case Study sofas, a vintage Scandinavian tile coffee table, and Danish armchairs upholstered in leather. Vintage fabric down pillows and a cowhide rug add warmth and texture.

The newly renovated interior features a beautiful white porcelain tile floor, providing a clean contemporary foundation for the vintage furnishings and artwork.

A Case Study Bedroom

The bedroom continues the modernist theme with an exceptionally comfortable king-size Case Study bed, complemented by crisp 100% cotton linens, a European duvet, and generous king-size pillows.

Duvet covers are freshly washed after every stay, so everything is crisp and ready for your arrival.

Blackout drapes provide complete privacy and create an exceptionally restful environment for sleeping.

The Palm Springs Indoor-Outdoor Experience

Expansive 12-foot sliding glass doors open directly from the bedroom onto a 200-square-foot private patio, creating an effortless connection between the interior and the outdoors.

The patio is furnished with two chaise lounges and vintage chairs, making it an inviting private retreat for morning coffee, afternoon sun, reading, or an evening cocktail.

gas grill makes outdoor dining easy, while the mountain view orientation provides an especially pleasant place to enjoy Palm Springs’ extraordinary desert light.
