Wanderlust Wednesday: Martha Angus’s Palm Springs Getaway

Palm Springs is another spot I am planning on checking off my bucket list in the near future.  

When I came across this modern beauty in Palm Springs I became exponentially more excited to explore this hamlet of architecture, art and mid century preservation.

Designer Martha Angus’s Palm Springs Getaway via Cottages & Gardens is the perfect nod to mod.
