When friends get together, magic happens. Especially when those friends are Alison Pickart, California-based designer and serial creative collaborator, and Katy Polsby, owner of the heritage wallpaper and textiles company CW Stockwell, known for its iconic Martinique print. (If it looks familiar, yes, it's that banana-leaf pattern from Blanche Devereaux’s bedding).

While catching up in L.A., the pair dreamed up a fun collaboration that would honor the spirit of that wallpaper and the women—excuse us, the Golden Girls, who loved it. Pickart and Polsby teamed up to create the Baywood Guest House, a short-term rental property conceived as the ultimate getaway pad for a group of girlfriends in sun-soaked Marin County, California.
