Pool House

No doubt you’ve seen famed photographer Gray Malin’s beach and landscape images everywhere lately. The busy Los Angeles-based artist is definitely having a moment, which is why he reached out to Decorist for design help with his pool house redux. He wanted the space designed quickly and without all those time consuming face-to-face meetings. The specific ask? Turn his existing 2-car garage into a chic and sophisticated pool house…to go along with his fabulous new pool, of course!

Decorist designer Ashley Redmond and online furniture retailer Wayfair were more than happy to oblige. The design approach to the pool house—also meant to serve double-duty as a cozy guest retreat—was simple: adopt the same fun, colorful and happy style as Gray’s photos themselves. With Wayfair’s extensive collection, mixing and matching playful prints, eye-popping fabrics and eclectic accessories was a cinch, and a boon for the pool house.
