Mountain Modern Masterpiece

Mountain Modern is the new normal…Most new home designs fall under this umbrella, and thanks to HOA regulations, many of these homes end up looking a lot alike. But sometimes just a tiny tip of the scales can make a huge difference. That’s why the owners of this Martis Camp masterpiece decided to tilt their design towards the modern side of Mountain Modern.

The 3,250 sq. ft. home was originally going to be a vacation home, but during the build, the family decided to move up to the Lake Tahoe region full-time. That gave the team a little more leeway to expand their goals, resulting in this luxurious “Jewelry Box” showpiece. As a conscious step away from the dark woods and steel beams that are so prevalent in the region, this home features gold, silver, taupe, white and blue. Rich textures are incorporated throughout with thoughtfully selected fabric, wallpaper, stone, tile, wood and decorative lighting. Each element acts as an individual art piece and each room has its own unique character.

The home features several custom elements, such as the one-of-a-kind 12-foot dining table, custom built-in beds with storage for the children’s bedrooms, and a four-person desk that allows the entire family to work together (and there’s plenty of storage space for office supplies and equipment so no one has to fight over the phone charger). By request, there’s even an anti-fog shaving mirror incorporated into the primary bathroom shower. Naturally, all of the outdoor gathering spaces were treated as additional living zones, to ensure the family can enjoy the beautiful Lake Tahoe environment (nearly) all year round.
