1. TIMELESS APPEAL
The owner of this lagoon-side vacation home describes the look she was aiming for as “stylish and sensual coastal simplicity”, and her phrase is an apt one. The kitchen, for example, has all the essential modern gadgetry while having a down-to-earth feel.
The coffee station includes a connoisseur-level Expobar espresso machine and mini Mazzer grinder, which are complemented by elements with a vintage feel in this light-filled and laidback kitchen. These include a deep ceramic butler sink and an extractor hood by Viking. Wooden countertops and Shaker-style cupboards by Hollywood Furniture add further retro appeal, as does the use of classic cupboard handles and drawer pulls.
2. KEEP IT REAL
This Edwardian Arts & Crafts home has been the perfect setting for the romantic and eclectic style of its vintage connoisseur owner for more than three decades.
