Articles from Marisa Reyes

Marisa Reyes brings desert-sunlight optimism to every article she crafts. Raised among the saguaros of Tucson and trained in interior design at ASU, Marisa translates design theory into real-world tips—think terracotta accent walls, renter-friendly peel-and-stick tiles, and native-plant centerpieces that thrive in low humidity. After four years documenting Arizona’s boutique-hotel scene, she turned her eye for texture and color into engaging how-to articles and TikTok quick-wins that have helped thousands refresh their spaces on a shoestring. When she’s not scouting vintage kilim rugs at the Mercado flea market, you’ll find Marisa photographing desert sunsets for palette inspiration or teaching beginner décor workshops at the local community college. Her guiding motto: “Good design should feel as effortless as a desert breeze—refreshing, warm, and totally you.”
