Tesselle products are sprinkled throughout the property, adding a touch of magic:
Orb Breeze Blocks: These elegant blocks add pizzaz the front masonry wall (see photo at top of post) and create a stunning backdrop to the jacuzzi, setting the stage for relaxation in style.
Tapa Cement Tile Collection: Step beside a 400 square foot montage adjacent to the ping pong yard and bask in the beauty of these captivating tiles.
You'll also find the Tapa Largeleaf Green Cement Tiles serving as a backdrop to a Frederick Weinberg 1950 "Swing Time" Abstract Nude Dancers Sculpture, adding an extra layer of artistry to the space.
The Shag House offers an immersive tour experience, where every corner feels like a life-sized Shag painting. The collaboration between the brilliant artist Shag (Josh Agle), homeowner Brandon McBurney, and John-Patrick Flynn of Brandtopia has brought this midcentury modern pool home in Little Beverly Hills, Palm Springs, back to life with a bang!
As the lead designer and creative director, Shag has masterfully combined his architectural studies and artistic aesthetic to reimagine this classic 1958 home. While preserving the core of the house, including the familiar 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout, tongue and groove ceilings, and the original fireplace, he has transformed the rest for modern homeowners.

The front entry has been expanded, and the original breezeway has been converted into a swank party lounge, offering grand curb appeal and a perfect backdrop for unforgettable gatherings.
Shag's artistic style, drawing from commercial illustration from the past five decades, has breathed life into every nook and cranny of the Shag House. With its vivid colors, sly humor, and celebration of consumerism, this house is not just a home—it's a work of art that sets the stage for the perfect party in Palm Springs.
