Carrie Brigham Design

I can't think of a better way to kick off the weekend than with this stunning Gulf Coast beach house designed by Carrie Brigham, an award-winning interior designer out of Naples, Florida. Clearly the sea was the inspiration behind the incredible home (captured by Sam Arnold Photography) with its serene color palette and driftwood-inspired elements. I'm not even going to try and pick a favorite room in the home, but this tranquil bedroom is a great place to start! You might have already guessed ... View Post

Town Lifestyle + Design

There is so much I love about this Houston, Texas home designed by Barbara Town of Town Lifestyle + Design, a San Antonio-based design firm specializing in combining traditional pieces with clean and modern elements. The 100-year-old home had great bones: original flooring, molding and archways, but it's the colorful bohemian vibe that I'm crazy about! Just one look at the dining room and I was a total goner! The dreamy wall color (one of all-time favorites–Palladian Blue by Benjamin Moore), ... View Post

Dreamy Country Home in Formentera, Spain

My Monday is a whole lot dreamier thanks to Micasa and this incredible country home located on Spanish island of Formentera. Less than a mile to the beach and the turquoise water of the Mediterranean, the idyllic getaway is surrounded by some of the most beautiful outdoor areas I've ever seen. Can you even imagine an afternoon spent relaxing in the area above? Or a leisurely meal under the porch below?! Absolutely magical! The breezy interior is just as beautiful with its soft color palette, ... View Post

Studio Steidley

This beautiful home situated on the edge of Lake Texoma is full of droolworthy details! Interior designer Staci Steidley of Plano, Texas-based Studio Steidley blended rustic and modern elements for a warm and cozy vibe that's perfect for life at the lake. I can't even tell you how much I love the kitchen. The weathered wood island, vent hood and shelves add a ton of warmth and charm to an otherwise sleek white space. The pops of turquoise are just the cherry on top! The style and colors flow ... View Post

George Penniman Architects

Longtime readers might recognize this home...or at least the delightful turquoise pantry door above! I shared some of these photos several years ago but when I stumbled on more images and an article on the oceanfront beach cottage, I thought the whole tour would be worth sharing again–it's that beautiful! The energy-efficient LEED Silver home in Weekapaug, Rhode Island was designed by George Penniman Architects and built by Evergreen Building Systems, with interior design by Susan Haynes. ...

Amanda Webster Design

I'm feeling ocean breezes after touring this beautiful Jacksonville Beach, Florida condo renovated by Amanda Webster Design! The airy, light-filled home (photographed by Jessie Preza) has a relax-and-unwind vibe thanks to soothing sea-inspired tones and textures, comfortable furnishings and plenty of chic coastal accessories! The living room above with its clean, white backdrop and splashes of turquoise might just be my favorite space. It's elegant yet relaxed...just like the rest of the breezy ... View Post

Jenny Madden Design

After a family's beloved beach house in Normandy Beach, New Jersey was destroyed by Hurricane Sandy, they enlisted the help of interior designer (and fellow turquoise lover!) Jenny Madden of Jersey City-based Jenny Madden Design in the home's rebuild. Sea glass, sea grass and seashells were the inspiration behind the home's peaceful palette, with pretty blue-green hues popping up throughout. I just love this open and airy living room with its grasscloth walls, coffered ceiling and built-in ... View Post

A Pirate’s Life For Me – Houseboat

What could possibly make a vacation to Charleston, South Carolina any better? Staying in a houseboat! A Pirate's Life For Me has to be one of the coolest houseboats I've come across. (Aside from this one in Rhode Island, of course!) Featured on Tiny House Hunters, this floating abode was gutted and completely rebuilt using reclaimed materials, sweat and love. I cannot stop drooling over the turquoise ceiling...hands down my favorite element. The floor is beautiful too though, and I'm loving the ... View Post
