Pacific Grove Beach Cottage

Pacific Grove, California

Completed in 2023

A MIST Architects Project in collaboration with Home Tomorrow Studio.

This cottage remodel brought minimalism, calm, and a modern spark to a beach escape.

The clients, interior designers Home Tomorrow, acquired this fixer-upper two bedroom home with the vision of converting it to a vacation escape. The interior walls were reconfigured to provide a more spacious living space, an open sun room, and a revamped bathroom. The warm Scandinavian palette blends with the coastal light to create the perfect beachside retreat.
