Turk gutted and reconfigured parts of its interiors, including a section of the living room, which was lowered two feet to create a sunken conversation pit. \u201cIt\u2019s a much more expansive view when you\u2019re lower,\u201d she says. Elsewhere are three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a powder room dressed in palm tree-patterned wallpaper.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cTrina Turk is about color, texture, pattern, and optimism,\u201d the designer says in a statement. \u201cMy goal was to create a new expression of the brand by incorporating the same touchstones into the decor.\u201d That much is clear from the living room\u2019s mustard yellow built-in couch to the kitchen\u2019s eye-catching aqua blue backsplash tiling. A breakfast bar separates the kitchen from a casual dining space with a rocky hillside view.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Trina Turk Soleil House Palm Springs CA kitchen\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/b1c28d01ddc5bbddd1d07ef1d1910a78.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Trina Turk Soleil House Palm Springs CA kitchen<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Wood-paneled ceilings and stone floors trail the abode, balancing out colorful patterned wallpapers and gleaming brass light fixtures. In the primary bedroom, sliding glass doors in the room open directly out onto the pool deck for sunrise yoga and late-night dips.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">During the renovation of the pool, its original, corroded water jets were discovered. \u201cThey were embedded in the side of the pool to create little arcs of water shooting into the pool,\u201d Turk says. The effect has since been recreated with a new system, making it \u201ca little bit Las Vegas.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Trina Turk Soleil House Palm Springs CA sitting room\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/2d0fc9eaa94745150212c7f79022c14e.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Trina Turk Soleil House Palm Springs CA sitting room<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/lifestyle\/articles\/cary-grant-former-palm-springs-000000535.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:RELATED: Cary Grant\u2019s Former Palm Springs Getaway Hits the Market for $12.7 Million;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;RELATED&quot;}\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">RELATED: Cary Grant\u2019s Former Palm Springs Getaway Hits the Market for $12.7 Million<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Soleil House is\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ttkrepresents.com\/properties\/2425-cahuilla-hills-dr-palm-springs-ca-us-92264-26666453ps\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:now available for $3.49 million;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;now available for $3.49 million&quot;}\" class=\"link \">now available for $3.49 million<\/a>\u00a0with Chris Menrad and Keith Markovitz of TTK Represents of Compass.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Turk has long kept a toehold in Palm Springs.
