From the moment they walk through the front door, guests will feel at ease in this colorful and eclectic living room. The space was inspired by the owner's vacation in Palm Springs, Calif., and so features various pieces (and plants!) that nod to that laid-back environment.

This corner of the living room is perfect for a set of hanging plants, as they can easily soak up the natural light. Two woven chairs sit in front of the window, too, and create a stylish space for catching up with a friend.

With light streaming in from the windows and plants all along the wall, this soothing white living room feels so serene and natural. Patterned pillows and an area rug complete the space and ensure that it's totally comfortable.

To really evoke thoughts of Palm Springs, Calif., designer Michelle Gage layered the living room with hanging plants, vines and various types of cacti. These decorate the bookshelf, too, which proudly displays a bust of Elvis, a flamingo statue and a record collection.
