well as three other freestanding homes (in addition to Adobe
House): the one-bedroom Harriet's Cottage; the spacious
Winter's House bungalow (a California Ranch House); and
the Olympic Cottage, which housed athletes during the 1932
Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
Led by the team behind design and architecture studio
Electric Bowery, the makeover's objective was to celebrate the
rich past and legacy of Casa Cody — which is a designated
Class 1 historic site by the Palm Springs City Council.
"With warm coral velvet, textured blue-green accents and
Otomi-patterned pillows, the rooms are imbued with depth to
enliven the existing plaster interior," says Cayley Lambur and
Lucia Bartholomew, managing partners at Electric Bowery.
"Each room features richly colored zellige tile and deep blue
millwork in the bathrooms and bar areas, reflecting the Medi-
terranean influence in a modern design. We custom designed
upholstered elements and cabinetry in the space for an inviting,
residential feel. The dark wood tones balance the rich pops of
color, creating a classic yet modern aesthetic that is unlike any
other in Palm Springs."
