Get the Look: Key West's Splash of Quirky Color

Noticing a room in your home in need of a bit of a refresh? Why not take a page from the design of the lobby at The Laureate Key West.


Overlooking the Atlantic from the eastern side of the island, The Laureate Key West is an all-suite retreat home to 64 accommodations that encourage guests to live as the laureates of the mid-century did: carefree, inspired, and ready to be immersed in the vibrancy of the island. And there’s no better introduction to the “you’re-on- island-time” lifestyle than the hotel’s lobby that embraces classic coastal décor but then marries it with a splash of Key West color. Here’s how to get the look.
