Martis Camp
When a young family purchased this architecturally significant home from the 1960s, the goal was to honor the existing structure (built by notable architect Joseph Esherick), while adapting it to the lifestyle and aesthetic wishes of the client. By creating a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces, and adding mid-century modern furnishings and materials --with touches of classic details--the home was transformed into a Northern California lifestyle dwelling, perfectly suited to a growing family.

MARTIS CAMP
This modern Tahoe home offers a spacious yet intimate retreat for a multi-generational family. Featuring three unique living areas encompassing a central communal space, the 15,000 sq. ft. residence nestles seamlessly into its surroundings, facing the spectacular Pacific Crest Trail.
The interiors were intentionally crafted to ground the home’s large volumes and create a warm atmosphere for family activities. Thoughtfully designed custom furniture was an essential strategy to strike the ideal balance of cozy and contemporary throughout the home. The dining room features a dynamic, 12-seater Oscar Tusquets Blanca table, while a custom L-shaped sofa anchors the living room. Four red Cassina P22 chairs evoke the red slatted feature wall and complement the massive concrete fireplace.
