Boasting a stunning signature style and an impressive portfolio, Studio McGee – the renowned design firm run by Shea and Syd McGee – hasn't let us down yet. And the firm's latest, a six-bed, six-bath vacation home surrounded by Lake Tahoe's iconic views, is one of their best yet.
Lucky for us, Shea just took to Instagram to unveil some first looks at the project, which combines her well-known modern farmhouse style with moody finishes and characterful flair. Here's all we know about the project so far, and what's to love about each and every room on display.
'The goal was to blend mountain and lake together due to the scenery and location of the home,' Shea says in a YouTube video touring the space. 'You'll see that we have created this really beautiful, fun, and charming vacation home with modern architecture.'
A first look inside the space
'Our clients are long-time fans of the Studio McGee look, and they had lots of inspiration pulled from past projects and my own home,' Shea continues. 'We worked with Marsden Architects and Structerra on the build, and the architecture was mostly complete when we started on the home. We put a few finishing touches on some of the notes, but mostly we were involved in the finishes and the furniture throughout the design process.'
As seen pictured above, the new build's living room is airy and expansive, complete with wood-clad, high ceilings, a sleek fireplace, and comfort-forward seating fit for the whole family. It takes on an organic modern color scheme , influenced by the jaw-dropping views just outside. Larger-than-life windows with statement black frames only accentuate the natural environment.
The primary bedroom, seen in the post's fourth slide, adopts the wood-clad ceilings, also including a vintage-inspired rug and a lush, textured headboard for a cozy, inviting look. The primary bathroom follows suit, including an antique wooden stool and an elegant standalone tub, prepped and ready at all times for a relaxing bubble bath.
The kitchen, too, is a gorgeous rendition of Shea's transitional style , including an adorable dining nook complete with leather benches and an on-trend (yet timeless) checkered blind. Open shelving and characterful barstools make the expansive room sing. And in the last glimpse we've got of the space so far, a mountain-style room features bunk beds, gingham wallpaper, and wall decor fit for outdoor exploring.
'This style is true to the Martis Camp style, where you're getting a lot of natural wood and earth tones,' explains Shea, referencing the hallmark style of the area (which contains a large swath of luxury homes). 'There are some steel accents throughout, some stone. And then, of course, huge window systems so that you capture all of the views.'

Jonas Linear Chandelier
Reminiscent of the chandelier in this home's living room, the Jonas Linear Chandelier is a no-fail approach to lighting a large space.

Madara Rattan Basket
Rattan baskets are a must for storage and textural interest. These would look lovely under a console table, as seen in this space's living room, or to round out open shelving.

Faux plants can be found in most of Studio McGee's nature-inspired spaces, and this one adds a burst of freshness to even the most neutral rooms.

Found in the children's bedroom, these ottomans are lush and textured, and bring a playful shape to any design scheme.
