Maison Ferndale by Studio Zung is a fresh take on fashion designer Ulla Johnson’s beloved family beach house. Set where land meets sea in Montauk, the home was reimagined to blend effortlessly with its lush surroundings and ocean views. Inside, every space, from the kitchen to the master suite, was redesigned for calm, connection and easy coastal living, capturing warmth, simplicity and an inviting sense of retreat.

Set on a prime harborfront site, this 1990s Nantucket residence has been reimagined by Workshop/APD as a forever home. The design unifies its original gabled form with a refined, contemporary sensibility, anchored by a sculptural staircase in textured plaster and dark-stained wood. Reclaimed timber, wire-brushed oak, striated stone and steel paneling lend depth and tactility. True to the Workshop/APD aesthetic the home embodies an artful, unmistakable expression of modern Nantucket living.

This English beach house by Isabella Worsley features open, light-filled interiors layered with natural materials. Pale timber floors, textured walls and bespoke joinery create depth while neutral tones and curated furnishings enhance a calm, tactile atmosphere. Rooms flow seamlessly framed by sea views and subtle architectural details and handcrafted touches add warmth. Every element is considered, producing a refined, relaxed home with a cohesive, intentional design.

Tropical color, open-air living, and a central courtyard make this Sayulita beach house feel like a dream getaway. Doubling as a personal vacation home and and a full-service rental, Casa Rosada blends boutique hotel amenities with all the charm of staying at a friend’s (very chic) house. I wanted it to feel like a love letter to Mexico—drawing on old haciendas, traditional courtyard houses, and that saturated, sun-soaked spirit you find in historic homes across the country. Chukum walls, hand-painted murals, handmade tile… it’s a house built around light, color, and the idea of “why not?”
Designer Summer Thornton created this oasis in one of my favourite places in the world for her and her family to enjoy. This is exactly how you do Sayulita in style!
