About Home Retreat The Home Retreat was established in 2005 and is located in Austin's fast-growing 2nd Street District. Our store concept stemmed from the desire to help anyone transform their living space into a personal retreat. By juxtaposing fine decor with organic and natural beauty, you can create a rich and highly personalized home environment that is alive with alluring colors, textures, shapes, and sounds. We are excited to offer you products that cater to a vast range of design tastes and experiences: from whimsical to traditional ; sophisticated contemporary to minimalist tranquility.
