ENVIABLE COASTAL HOMES FROM AROUND THE WORLD
Like cat people vs. dog people, some people love the mountains and others love the sea. For those who favor the sea, nothing can top this book crammed with 450 photographs of vacation houses, island cottages, seaside villas and other dreamy and inspiring retreats from around the world.

SEASIDE INTERIORS takes the reader on a grand tour including Pierre Cardin's retro-futuristic, otherworldly home on the Côte d'Azur, House & Garden style contributor Judyth van Amringe's whimsical coast-of-Maine retreat, photographer Gian Paolo Barbieri's vernacular Seychelles house, the Montauk cottage-on-a-cliff of renowned designer Vicente Wolf, a handsome timber house hugging the coast in Big Sur, a playful family compound on the beach in Bahia, and a dramatic sculptural house on Mexico's Pacific coast.

Though unique in every other way, the 42 retreats in SEASIDE INTERIORS have in common an entire spectrum of blues; the heavenly royal blue of the Aegean, the soft grey-blue of the North Atlantic, the glittering crystal blue of the Caribbean. Each evocative idyll pictured will send the reader's mind wandering from past joys by the sea to only-dreamed-of vacations in one of these blissful spots.

SEASIDE INTERIORS presents the infinite pleasures of living in harmony with nature beside the sea.
