Iconic Home - Mara Interior Design

Written By Lauren Taylor

The Iconic Life article explores the transformation of a three-level ocean-side home in Manhattan Beach, focusing on the interior design by Mara Green. The home underwent a comprehensive renovation, blending a casual beach lifestyle with elevated design elements. Green's approach balanced sophistication with the practicality needed for beach living, as the clients desired a refined atmosphere where beach paraphernalia wouldn't feel out of place. The interior design, inspired by the local color of Manhattan Beach, reflects a modern farmhouse style, offering a fresh take on beach home aesthetics. The inclusion of a Kelly Wearstler surfboard in the living room encapsulates the fusion of beach vibes and elegant design, serving as a centerpiece that captures the essence of the home's ambiance. The clients, a couple with two children from Arizona, sought a year-round beachside retreat to enjoy with family and friends, drawn to Manhattan Beach's vibrant community and coastal charm.
