New Seaside Interiors - Tapa dura

This book describes extraordinary coastal living from Iceland to Chile.Inhale deeply: no, that's not the smell of a book, that's the delicate scent of the ocean's breeze. You have been whisked off on a journey through the world's loveliest seaside homes and perhaps (no promises) you're never coming back...Relax into the lazy pace of living by the water while you soak up our selection of delectable coastal interiors from all five continents. The highlights include a Martha's Vineyard cottage, a Knokke home designed by minimal architect van Duysen, the Kjaerholm Residence in Denmark, the house of Fiona Swarovski in Capri, the Lautner-designed Arango house in Mexico, and a home in Ipanema, Sao Paulo by architect Isay Weinfeld. From minimalist to cozy, from ethnic to modern, these homes all share a love for the deep blue.
