🛋️ 1. Start with Statement Furniture
Your furniture is the foundation of your design. Choose pieces that enhance the apartment’s sleek features like modern wood cabinetry, two-tone designer paint, and walk-in closets. Think plush sectionals, statement beds with clean lines, and dining tables that bring people together.
Local Tip:
Check out Casa Décor El Paso on Pellicano Drive or Home Decor Liquidators on Zaragoza Road for modern, budget-friendly furniture that complements Eastlake’s contemporary vibe.

🖼️ 2. Dress Up Your Walls
Let your walls do the talking. With two-tone designer paint and tall ceilings, Retreat at Eastlake apartments are ideal for bold artwork, floating shelves, or decorative mirrors that add dimension.
Local Finds:
Visit At Home on George Dieter Drive or Kirkland’s at The Fountains at Farah for wall art, mirrors, and decorative accents. You’ll find pieces that suit everything from minimalist to southwestern-inspired styles.
🌿 3. Add Life with Greenery
Greenery brings balance to your apartment’s sleek finishes and modern plumbing fixtures. Use tall snake plants, low-maintenance succulents, or cascading pothos to breathe life into every room.
Where to Shop:
For indoor plants and chic pots, try El Paso Nursery & Garden Center or Sunset Gardens—both are local gems for apartment-friendly greenery
🕯️ 4. Layer Your Lighting
Even with modern lighting packages, adding lamps or pendant lights can help create cozy zones throughout your home. Use warm-toned bulbs to highlight features like your vinyl wood floors and modern wood cabinetry.
Pro Tip:
Check out Lamps Plus or Target at The Fountains for stylish lighting that fits any room—plus string lights for patios or first-floor homes with yards.
