Pebble Beach home design tour: 5 elements connecting the indoors to the coast

At Pacaso, we consistently design breathtaking interiors that cater to discerning second home owners. Now our design team is taking that commitment to a new level by collaborating with acclaimed fine artist and award-winning designer Sutton is creating bespoke artwork for several of Pacaso listings debuting this summer. These stunning properties stretch from the scenic landscapes of Jackson, Wyoming, to the coastal charm of Corona del Mar, California. Your home serves as a reflection of your personality, and nothing adds character and charm quite like artwork. So we asked Sutton and Pacaso's Head of Design, Lauren Farrell, to share their expertise to help you curate art for your home. Plus, we’ll share a bit more the design of Flow and cohesion: Harmonize your layout Selecting the right art for your home demands a mindful approach that factors in your home’s layout. Consider the visual connections between rooms, particularly in open spaces where walls are visible from different angles. The goal is to achieve a seamless and harmonious ambiance that flows effortlessly throughout your living spaces.  “Art provides visual interest and weight, so learning how to balance the eye between pieces creates a natural path for the viewer to experience the art and the home,” explained Farrell. Size and scale: Balance your walls “It’s extremely important to pay attention to the wall size and artwork scale,” said Farrell. Consider the dimensions of your walls when choosing art, aiming for a balanced and visually pleasing display. Larger walls may call for substantial artworks, while smaller walls benefit from delicate pieces that add charm without overwhelming the space.  Color decisions: Add your personal touch Select are pieces that incorporate colors from your existing decor, such as throw pillows, lamps and vases. Custom commissions offer an opportunity to align your favorite colors and preferences with your chosen artwork, creating a beautiful and cohesive connection between your decor and art. “The unique pieces I created in the Jackson Pacaso project exude sophistication with a masterful blend of blacks, browns and natural tones,” said Sutton. “The curation of artwork focuses on local landscapes, showcasing the awe-inspiring elements of nature that draw those enamored with the destination. Each piece is meticulously executed, with an array of mixed media originals and hand-embellished prints, chosen to embrace a color palette of muted tones that harmoniously integrates the wildlife of the setting, from majestic elk to bears and moose.” Artistic diversity: Use multiple styles  “Embrace artistic diversity within your home,” said Sutton “Pacaso and I used a mix of various textures and visual concepts within our several projects together, from the beach in California to the mountainside of Colorado.”   Ensuring that there are various styles within the collection of works while maintaining a sense of curatorial cohesion to add depth and intrigue to your living spaces is essential. From modeling paste and acrylic on wood, to gold leaf embellished prints in shadow boxes, combining elements and styles that resonate with you will result in a visually engaging environment while also stimulating emotional senses. “With West District in Jackson, we created a captivating assortment of bespoke prints, and the artwork is thoughtfully presented on paper, acrylic, aluminum, canvas wrapped and gold leaf hand-embellished prints. I also created custom mixed media paintings on wood, to thoughtfully balance with the beautiful, natural cognac and charcoal tones within the furniture, providing an engaging visual experience to admirers.” Wall space: Prioritize width When working within a budget, the experts suggest you focus on maximizing the width of your wall space, as opposed to the height. Choosing wider and shorter art pieces can make a significant visual impact without stretching your finances. Opting for prints over originals helps stretch the budget as well. This approach ensures that your artwork is a prominent feature in your home. Cost-effective art: Unleash your DIY creativity For those seeking cost-effective yet artistic solutions, DIY art projects offer an exciting avenue for creativity, as well as calming effects for your mind. Experiment with striped patterns in various ombre colors or explore multi-color schemes for an easy option for beginners. Online tutorials found on Frames: Elevate your presentation Framing plays a pivotal role in accentuating artwork and elevating its overall presentation. Sutton recommends exploring your framing and matting options and using a variety of frames. For Jackson Hole, we went classic with black, white, silver, and gold frames. We created custom, hand-embellished gold leaf shadow boxes to add an elegant and dimensional touch. Tailor the framing choices to suit different areas in your home, ensuring a cohesive and sophisticated art display. For an unexpected twist in your art display, consider framing pieces with colorful frames, and even colorful mats. This creative approach, as showcased in forthcoming Pacaso homes, transforms frames into integral components of the artwork. Inside West District West District is a modern new-construction condominium that draws its design inspiration from the breathtaking landscapes around Jackson. Thanks to expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, the home offers  stunning town and mountain views and is bathed in natural light — a perfect venue for original artwork by Elizabeth Sutton. Pacaso's design team enlisted Sutton to produce one-of-a-kind artwork thoughtfully incorporating elements of the surrounding landscape.  "In Elizabeth Sutton's art, the beauty of the great American West comes alive, elegantly intertwined with modern multi-media techniques, creating pieces that our owners will cherish for a lifetime," said Farrell. "We aimed to bring the essence of blue skies and majestic scenery within the comfort of the home." To seamlessly bring the beauty of the outdoors into the living space, the Pacaso design team carefully selected the furnishings, materials, fabrics and decor. "Embracing the raw beauty of nature, we utilized modeling paste and gold leaf to create distinctive textures, while custom framing added an exquisite touch to the curated artwork," said Farrell.  West District maximizes communal spaces, transforming the home to a haven for gatherings with family and friends. The open plan living area includes a cozy fireplace and dining table, while the sleek kitchen features Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances along with a dine/prep island. The private deck offers a hot tub and BBQ area, complemented by two large dining tables and two inviting sitting areas. The primary suite serves as a relaxing retreat, featuring an en suite bathroom with a double sink vanity and a wetroom equipped with a rain shower and soaking tub. In addition to a second bedroom, a third holds bunk beds for guests of all ages to enjoy. Sutton's one-of-a-kind artwork is skillfully installed throughout West District to create a seamless flow, guiding guests from the entry to the living spaces and the bedrooms. The artful compositions maintain a homogeneous color palette while expertly exploring diverse textures, shapes, and captivating imagery in the prints. "In the most significant spaces, the mixed media fine artworks hang, adding delightful dimensional and metallic elements to the artfully designed interiors," said Sutton. "The result is an elevated and sophisticated portrayal of Jackson Hole's natural wonders, leaving a lasting impression on all who are fortunate enough to behold it."

A Understanding repairs and replacement reserves There’s peace of mind in having an emergency fund baked into your savings plan. The same goes for real estate. It’s hard enough to budget for annual repairs and maintenance, let alone if a hurricane blew the roof off your condo building. That’s where a replacement reserve fund comes in.  Repairs and replacement reserves go towards large-scale projects that benefit all property owners.  If you own property managed by a homeowner’s association (HOA) or other governing body, you’re likely already paying a monthly maintenance fee. It’s common for a percentage of these monthly dues to go towards a repairs and replacement reserve for the property.  These monthly fees can go up if a community or property needs more funds to cover an expense. HOA members vote to make a change like this. Takeaways In short, repairs and replacement reserves are: In more detail: “Long-term repairs” is a catch-all term for planned property improvements. Refinishing siding or updating a roof are two examples of long-term repairs. Property owners know they’ll have to invest in these eventually, and the reserve fund pays for necessary upkeep and improvements.  Reserve funds are also used to recoup emergency costs not covered by insurance,  like damage from severe weather.  Reserve fund balances differ from property to property. When an HOA doesn’t have enough money to cover the cost of a project — like replacing a roof after storm damage — they’ll raise the funds by upping monthly contributions or adding a special assessment. This requires a vote by association members. Ideally, monthly fees are set high enough to keep a property’s repairs and replacement reserve topped up for any given situation. This keeps the HOA from needing to make special assessments and raise rates.  It depends on the amount of anticipated repairs and projects planned for the property. Location plays a big factor, too — HOAs on the coast might factor in costs for hurricane or cyclone repairs, for example. Funds are usually kept in an account that can grow interest over time. Repairs and replacement reserves are often savings accounts.  HOA fees are set by homeowners associations and include expected monthly contributions to repairs and replacement reserves. HOA fees also cover routine maintenance for day-to-day needs like staffing and landscaping. These fees pay for the services needed to keep a community or property looking its best so owners retain the most value in their investment.  Repairs and replacement reserves are only used for very specific situations. The fund is off limits unless property managers (like an HOA) give the go-ahead to release money to fix something. HOA authority comes down to a board member vote.  One of the benefits of Pacaso’s fully managed LLC co-ownership is the shared reserve fund held by the LLC’s bank account. Reserve funds are only used for home repairs and maintenance. Should your home need a major repair, Pacaso will allocate funds. Owners may vote to use reserve funds to replace life-limited items like washers, dryers and roofs. They may also request a vote to use funds to add, replace or upgrade items around the house (installing a sound system, for example).  Reserve funds are just one of the benefits of Pacaso co-ownership — learn more about

Here’s why co-owning a second home is a better option for your vacations than a The unexpected value of a Pacaso People have compared Pacaso to a hotel, Airbnb or a luxury vacation club like Inspirato.

What’s more exciting than finally finding your The good news is that luxury is subjective, so making a home feel like the most opulent escape means decorating it to your taste. Still, you can take cues from some luxury interior design principles to transcend your space.  With help from our interior design team, we’ve pared those luxury interior design principles down to nine areas to pay attention to, and, for good measure, created some mood boards to inspire every room in your home. Now, let’s dive into that life of luxury that’s so you. What is luxury interior design? Luxury interior design is considered a more decadent form of interior design, be it through fine art, high-end furniture or hyper-functional layouts. But it’s also subjective, since everyone experiences luxury a little differently.  — Pacaso interior design team All this is to say that luxury interior design aesthetics can vary, but core principles of luxury design remain the same. What are the principles of luxury design?  There are Without further ado, let’s dive into each. Remember that all of these luxury interior design elements can be tailored to your specific style and taste. 1. Sustainable materials Believe it or not, a Salvaged wood ceiling beams, reclaimed stained glass in a front door, and cork lampshades just scratch the surface of a few sustainable materials you can use in a luxury home — and feel good doing it. 2. Prioritized comfort Luxurious interiors don’t need to be so decadent that you can’t interact with them. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. A luxurious home prioritizes comfort above all. For example, ditch your upright guest seating for a classic chaise lounge, or turn an office corner into a tranquil meditation space complete with floor cushions and a yoga mat. 3. Functionality Contrary to popular belief, a spacious home doesn’t necessarily mean luxury. Instead, functionality should be at the forefront of any luxury interior design project to ensure seamless interactions with the space. — Pacaso interior design team For instance, every seat should have a tabletop nearby to place drinks, books or other items. Every sink needs a plush towel within arm’s reach. And a faucet installed above the stovetop can certainly streamline the cooking process. These simple but intentional placements make for a sophisticated approach to a room’s overall design. 4. Curated lighting Lighting may be one of the most important design elements of any home because it affects how we see the rest of the interior design, like shining light on a piece of special artwork or a rare houseplant.  Light fixtures can even be a piece of art in themselves. For example, if a room teems with natural light, opt for a more ornamental fixture (like a chandelier with fewer bulbs) that doubles as a statement piece or focal point in a room. 5. Various textures A variety of textures can bring depth to a room and make for a more well-rounded experience. Remember that sleek surfaces bring a modern mood to a space, while fluffy Moroccan rugs can achieve a sense of coziness. Pair them together in a luxury home’s interior and you have multiple sensory experiences. 6. Innovative color palettes Clean white walls are rarely considered the apex of luxury interior design. Ornate wallpaper and innovative color palettes, on the other hand, speak volumes of the restraint it takes to fill a space. Dark walls, for example, can bring a bit of drama and grandeur to a room. Mixing patterns and thematic color palettes can also create a customized version of luxury. Keep in mind that the colors you choose can also affect your mood. Bright yellows might be great for an area where you want to focus and be productive, while shades of blue are ideal for areas of relaxation.  7. Primary (and secondary) focal points A focal point guides your eyes across a room, often admiring the secondary focal points along the way. The idea here is that you don’t need to be overwhelmed with what to give attention to in a room — after all, that’s not a luxurious experience. Oftentimes, a room’s layout determines the focal point in the room, like a fireplace in the living room or an island in the kitchen. But you can create a brand-new point, too. Sculptures or other pieces of art are one such example. 8. Consistent room designs What could be more luxurious than living somewhere that feels totally personalized to your sense of style? Marrying your style across the entire home means ensuring you have a consistent flow of the same flooring, color palettes, hardware and art pieces in every room. 9. Indoor/outdoor living Nature is known to soothe the soul, so inviting outdoor elements inside your home — and vice versa — is an excellent way to lead a life of luxury.  Whenever possible, create a sense of indoor/outdoor living by capitalizing on the luxurious exterior views of your home. Let your floor-to-ceiling windows sparkle uninterrupted by skipping the window coverings.  — Pacaso interior design team If the views are lacking, bring the outdoors inside with a variety of plants and earth-toned design elements. Luxury decor tips for every room Now that you know the principles of luxury interior design, it’s time to apply them to every room in your home — or second home.  Follow our Luxury kitchen design Luxury spaces with a high amount of foot traffic need to be as functional as they are beautiful. Depending on the layout and Prioritize the comfort of these spaces where people will be relaxing while enjoying a meal. This means being intentional about the seating materials and mood lighting you use.  Ditch the can lights for pendant lights that feature warm bulbs to transform kitchen island counter seating into a high-end bar.  Luxury living room design A luxury living room can be completely dedicated to lounging in maximum comfort or serve a dual purpose. Your living room can also function as a library, home theater or office space.  — Pacaso interior design team Due to the dynamic nature of lounging spaces, this type of room is the perfect candidate for a focal point feature, like a custom coffee table or sculpture. Luxury home office design If your luxury home office is less about work and more about recreation, then make custom cabinetry showcasing your rare collectibles or hobby projects the focal point of this room. — Pacaso interior design team Luxury bedroom design Luxury bedrooms are more than just a place to rest after a long day. Needless to say, comfort should be the priority of this space. However, luxury bedrooms can also benefit from other design principles like curated lighting and mixed textures.  If you want to feature a glamorous dressing parlor within your luxury bedroom, for example, consider differentiating that area with wallpaper or a chic room divider. To further separate the two areas and create contrast, play with softer textures for your bedding and the surrounding space. Luxury bathroom design It’s entirely possible to turn a luxury bathroom into a Luxurious materials like wood and stone also help add an indoor/outdoor feel to your bathroom. Sustainably sourced water-resistant materials like teak are great choices for bath tables and shower benches. Transform your counter space into a timeless vanity by incorporating natural lighting and a personalized storage system for your skincare products. Invest in high-quality towels for a luxurious finishing touch to your daily hygiene routine. Luxury interior design is all about what creature comforts are timeless to you. With these principles and mood boards in hand, you’re on the path to leading a life of luxury, no matter the size or location of your home or
