Michael Berman
Michael will be lead Designer for the Desert Oasis Showhouse. He’ll be bringing together the talents of the Interior and Exterior Design Teams. Interiors and product designer Michael Berman has created a portfolio of projects that span the globe. From residential homes to luxury hotels, his signature American Modern style reflects the designer’s interest in mid-century modern styling, history, art, architecture, and nature, forming a heady mix of completely livable – and widely celebrated – interiors, furniture, lighting, and textiles. His work strikes an uncommon balance between timeless style and of-the-moment relevance inspired by comfort, simplicity of form, and classic Hollywood glamour. Berman’s work resonates with design industry colleagues for its attention to detail and usable scale. Michael has crafted an epic romance that blends the luxury of casual lifestyle and eclectic cinematic swank. “My objective is to create classics with restraint and elegance that will stand the test of time.”
