When supermodel Tatjana Patitz wanted to get away from the Hollywood lifestyle of Malibu, she moved to the more quiet community of Carpinteria and purchased 200 incredible acres of land that she turned into her very own sanctuary. Surrounded by tropical wildlife, she let the environment inspire the design.

Her home is a rustic retreat that is as unique as the property it sits on. It blends right in with the environment for a harmonious lifestyle that Tatjana and her son have embraced. The interior is full of beautiful natural textures, including wood and stone, and has a natural palette that compliments the surroundings.

This home tour is wonderfully inspiring in how nature has taken such a huge role in the overall design of the home. The synergy is breathtaking and offers some wonderful ideas that you can incorporate into your own home.

Tatjana Patitz’s Rustic Retreat

The exterior of the home blends right in with the environment with a wood and stone facade.

In the living room, a comfortable sofa and a warm palette create a cozy, welcoming atmosphere.

The bookshelf in the living room is packed solid, but has been arranged in a visually stylish way.

A simple vignette brings some character to the entryway. Old boots, a vintage chair, and a unique wood-carved table look great on the Spanish tiles.

A large, curved patio allows for dining among the treetops and a million-dollar view.

The imperfections and vintage quality of many of the home’s pieces are part of what gives it so much character.

A weathered table and chairs brings a vintage vibe to the dining room, where a wooden bench looks super charming with it.

How stunning is that headboard? The intricate detailing in it makes easily makes it the focal point of this space and just one of the many special finds throughout the home.

I love homes that are as unique as this one. It’s inspiring to see how Tatjana has embraced her home as a place that can reflect her own spirit wholly and completely.

Warm regards,
Megan
