South Palm Canyond Drive in Palm Springs, CA with palm trees and Modernism Week banner

Join us for a flashback tour of Limón, a colorful seven-bedroom private escape in South Palm Springs inspired by the optimistic era and continental graphics and style of the 1968 Mexico City Olympics, previously opened to Modernism Week attendees as a Featured Design Project in 2022. Constructed in 1964 and originally built as an apartment house named Stuart Manor, Limón is one of the most unique buildings in Palm Springs as it is an all-steel structure. Fans of the famous Town and Country Restaurant located in downtown Palm Springs’ “The Center” will be interested to know that its owners and builders, Mr. and Mrs. Clarke, also built this fireproof residential building.

Come enjoy and be inspired by the renovations by H3K Home+Design, who transformed the property into a holiday landing place that can accommodate 14 guests in separate suites, all surrounding a gleaming swimming pool. Take in the large communal kitchen, fit for a coterie of chefs and outfitted with state-of-the-art appliances and international décor. The property's renovations utilized brands such as Brizo, Dunn-Edwards Paints, Ferguson Bath, Kitchen and Lighting, Flor, and Willis.
