Colorful Bedrooms that Embrace Pattern and Personality
Three Lake Tahoe-based retreats with captivating design details.
Designing a stellar retreat where the bedroom exudes mountain-style ethos is nothing short of an artistic adventure. Patterns, colors, textures and materials all play a role in transforming a simple space into a soulful sanctuary. As warmer weather stirs dreams of lakeside lounging and long, sun-soaked days, we’re reminded of the importance of a restful, beautiful place to land.
These Lake Tahoe bedrooms do just that—inviting us into vibrant, layered spaces that balance personality with comfort, and color with calm.
