COASTAL BLISS
Designed to invite the outdoors in—and accommodate lots of sandy feet—this open-plan space forms the heart of a family’s peaceful seaside retreat. The owners briefed the architect to make the weekend home “shed-like”. The high windows between the exposed beams and roof make the sun and sky ever-present elements.
Texture is key to making the space seem lived in, with the liberal use of whitewashed raw wood. A lighting piece made up of sea shells adds another marine element to the space. The sheepskin and cowhide rugs bring a further layer of comfort and warmth to the large room.
