"Phoebe Howard is an expert at creating homes that reflect the elegance and appeal of oceanfront living. With every project, Howard is always seeking to connect interior and outdoor spaces, and to encourage alfresco entertaining. And there's nothing she loves more than a soothing color scheme of pale blues and greens set off by the neutrals inspired by shells and the sand that surrounds them. In this book, Howard shares all she has learned about combining the practical with the pretty when designing for homes on the seacoast, whether that means selecting colors or incorporating materials that stand up to the elements and sandy feet. Each house in this collection-from over-the-top contemporaries set amid the dunes to Caribbean getaways made for indoor/outdoor living-has a distinctive design that is meant not just to be lived in, but to be enjoyed by the families who call it home and by the friends and welcome guests who can't resist a visit"--
