How fun would it be to have a beach house in your family?! This Bethany Beach, Delaware home designed by Washington interior designer Erica Burns and photographed by Stacey Zarin Goldberg would be perfect! Lucky enough for Erica, it’s also in her family! I love how Erica alluded to the beach in a subtle way here, through colors and textures…walls the color of sand, blue/green of the ocean, rustic reclaimed wood furniture, and the seagrass rugs and lamps. And how about that lantern? Doesn’t it feel like it got that way from being outside in the salty air? And the pink stools, love those too! You can see more pics (including before’s-n-after’s!) and read all about the renovation of the beach home over at The Washington Post! And for more eye candy from Erica, visit her website here!

Love the pops of Pink! And…the lantern is amazing.
I love that they have kept the family vacation home simple and unpretentious. This is a place to focus on enjoying time together and having fun. Love the colour of the lantern!

Thank you so much for posting paint colors and other resource information. It is so helpful.
Love it! Fresh and beachy. The rug in the living room is awesome. And to add a pop of pink with bar stool cushions is a fun idea.
Those high ceilings are great & so are the pink tops on the stools.
I want this home! I love it!

I grew up going to Bethany Beach and Rehobeth Beach! This house is just beautiful and so nicely decorated. Love the crispness and the pops of color. Great work!
I just LOVE this space! Everything from the soft mix of colors to the overall fresh and airy design aesthetic. Great job Rethink Design Studio. Thanks for sharing Erin!
The fireplace is very cozy, I felt relaxed just by looking at the photos. Great design in the kitchen as well.
I love beachy decor! Any idea where the dining room table is from?
Absolutely lovely!
May I ask what is the color of the trim in the living room? "I've always had a hard time picking out the right shade of white.
