2026 Canary House Project

The Laswell Residence

Rancho Royale, Palm Springs

The Laswell Residence is more than a restored home—it is the foundation of Canary House.

Built in 1947–1948, the residence sits within Rancho Royale, one of the earliest postwar neighborhoods that helped shape the future of Palm Springs. Developed at a pivotal moment, Rancho Royale introduced a new way of living in the desert—where architecture, climate, and lifestyle were designed to work together.

Positioned just beyond the center of town and near the Palm Springs Biltmore, the neighborhood attracted a new kind of resident—individuals drawn not only to the desert’s quiet, but to its emerging cultural energy. It became an early expression of what Palm Springs would soon become: a place defined by design, leisure, and a distinctly modern point of view.

The home was originally built for Maynard A. Laswell—an athlete, entrepreneur, and early participant in Palm Springs’ growing social scene. His residence reflects the architectural language that would come to define the region: strong horizontal lines, open living, and a seamless connection between indoors and out.

Today, the Laswell Residence has been thoughtfully reimagined as a showcase for the art of vacation living.

Through Canary House, the property serves as a living platform—where design, hospitality, and experience come together. It is a place for curated stays, intimate gatherings, and brand collaborations that align with a shared appreciation for timeless design and modern desert living.

Rooted in history, but designed for what comes next, the Laswell Residence reflects a simple idea: how we live, gather, and experience place can be intentional—and elevated.

Now accepting a limited number of partners and inquiries for Spring 2026.

A limited series of experiences launching at Laswell beginning Autumn 2026.

Partner with Canary House

At the Laswell Residence

Canary House invites a select group of brands and creators to become part of the Laswell Residence—our living showcase for design, hospitality, and the art of vacation living.

We partner with those who share a point of view: thoughtful materials, considered design, and products that elevate how people experience a space.

At Laswell, your work is not placed—it is lived with, photographed, and experienced within a real environment designed to inspire.

What We’re Looking For

We collaborate with brands across:

• furnishings and objects
• lighting and architectural elements
• kitchen, table, and hosting pieces
• textiles and lifestyle goods
• outdoor living and landscape design

Each partnership is curated to feel cohesive, intentional, and aligned with the home.

What We Offer

Partners are integrated into the Canary House platform through:

• Editorial features in At Canary House Notes
• Dedicated spotlight stories highlighting your brand and product
• Organic placement within our content and visual storytelling during Experiences at Laswell
• Exposure to a design-forward audience engaged in travel, architecture, and lifestyle

This is not traditional placement—it is context, narrative, and association.

The Opportunity

Laswell serves as a backdrop for:

• curated stays
• intimate gatherings
• design-led experiences
• content creation and storytelling

Your brand becomes part of that experience—seen not just as a product, but as part of a way of living.

How to Get Involved

We work with a limited number of partners at a time.

If your brand aligns with the Canary House point of view, we invite you to connect.
