House Beautiful Whole Home 2021: The Owner’s Retreat

Each room in the House Beautiful Whole Home is vastly different, showcasing the unique styles of designers who came together to create this dreamy house in Fredericksburg. In a home built with family in mind, and so many opportunities for conversations, entertainment, and play, one thing is crucial - the owners must have a space to retreat and unwind. This owner’s suite is the perfect place to step away from all the excitement and take time for yourself. From the gorgeous bathtub that overlooks views of the Texas landscape, to the private outdoor shower, and connecting door with private access to the pool - The Owner’s Retreat is the ultimate relaxation spot.


The Designer: Virginia Toledo and Jessica Geller of Toledo Geller

The Task: Create a cozy owner’s suite that incorporates modern farmhouse elements, while staying true to the fresh, livable style of Toledo Geller.


The Inspiration: The design duo drew inspiration from the Texas landscape, which reminded them of a safari, encouraging the use of natural textures and warm colors.
