” Inspired by the homes of local fishermen, they designed a set of 3 cabanas: one for the living room, one for the kitchen, a third for bedrooms, connected by wooden walkways put on the sand. Suduca & Mérillou used traditional local materials: straw, wood, bamboo, lime. ‘We wanted to create a pure atmosphere, light and relaxing. Special care is given to the terraces runs much of the holiday life. Inside, the walls are whitewashed, beams in a monastic whiteness. Materials raw and poor, straw, reed, string, raffia relay around vintage pieces of Calder, Gio Ponti, Royere and Lurcat.”

This beach house in Portugal by Daniel Suduca and Thierry Mérillou of Galerie Saint Jacques may seem like a reworking of a simple fisherman’s cottage but don’t be fooled. This rough luxe getaway is overflowing with style and all those fabulous vintage treasures by Calder, Gio Ponti, Royere and Lurcat.

The aesthetic goals of this project were simple and practical and relatively economical. It’s a place to go and relax but it’s not meant to be showy. It’s for comfort and delight. It’s sensible and easy.
That could not sound more perfect. This Inverness, CA home is designed by Corine Maggio of CM Natural Designs. (Photos: Carley Page Summers. Construction: Brett and Jack Matthews)

Loving the modern and tropical, Spanish finca-esque vibes of this renovated 1970s home in the South of France. Another stellar project by the talented Baptiste Bohu.

“This project combined tonal fabrics, natural materials and textures to create a calming beach retreat. Though neutral in tone, the space comes to life with the layering of plaster, travertine, rattan and linens.”

Just when you think it’s another beige on beige home BAM! pattern on pattern in the guestroom and bathroom. Stone, rattan and tropical wallpaper. What more could you want in a beachside getaway?  John’s Island by Cameron Ruppert.
