Florida Beach House by Balfoort Architecture + Beach Chic Design

Love. Love. Love!

This Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida home is pure perfection. 

With it's casual and elegant vibe, both indoors and out, 

it is an all-around incredible tropical getaway!  

Designed by architect Michelle Balfoort, interiors by Beach Chic Design,  

and photographed by Adam Cohen.  

The exterior of the home is so lovely, timeless, and inviting. 

The pool area is an entertaining dream, and the interior is completely amazing.  

With clean lines, white and bright pallet, natural wood ceilings, natural beachy 

elements scattered throughout the home, beautiful tile work, 

and a dash of modern design-- this style screams perfection in my eyes!

Meg Ryan's lovely beach retreat in Martha's Vineyard

Now, I know I have an obsession with Nantucket.

I have yet to visit the similar sister Island, Martha's Vineyard, although it is definitely in my plans to do so! I know that it is a larger, more populated, and a more popular island.  The Massachusetts Island has a history and ties with many of the "rich & famous" in history. I can see why the Island has an appeal to many famous people. It has a unique character and beauty and can offer a peaceful seclusion from the rest of the world. It's dreamy really.  Well, at least I imagine so. I adore Nantucket and Cape Cod, and know that it is very similar to those lovely places.  

Anyway, Meg Ryan is one of those movie star's that brilliantly chose to take refuge and comfort on the beautiful island of Martha's Vineyard. 

Featured in Elle Decor, Meg offers a peek into her comfortable and beautiful beach retreat. Her bathroom is actually one of my favorite rooms of the house. The bathtub, vanity, storage, tiled floor, and funky lighting are all pure perfection in my book!  The bluestone and brick shelving in the pantry is pretty impressive too.  Another fave is the dinning area. Love the vintage "Flowers" sign and all the interior windows. It adds character and a historical feel to the beach house.  Check out the article and more photos at Elle Decor.

Florida Beach House by Ashley Gilbreath Interior Design

Came across this beach house in Florida decorated by the

 Ashley Gilbreath Interior Design group, on the blog Perish. 

 This beach house is simply perfection. I'm in awe with the effortlessly cool home. 

There is such a natural beach vibe to the decor, not too over-done.

I adore the what-looks-to-be custom made wood surf board hanging on the kitchen wall. 

I also love the unique fossil and shells limestone fireplace. 

How cool are those vintage green jars on the kitchen table? 

This is one pretty spectacular beach home... I'm thinking I'd love to live there.

Newport Beach, California :: Beach House

Spotted this bright and cheerful beach home in Coastal Living Magazine. 

Colorful patterns and bold accessories let this family's personality shine through

 in their Newport Beach, California home. The talented designers were the sister 

design team Karen Mathiesen Brown and Kristina Mathiesen. 

I adore the Trina Turk for Schumacher fabric on the banquette. 

And I really need to find me some large electric letters... too much FUN! ;)

What a comfortable and happy beach home.

Modern Coastal Home

Right now I'm inspired by this Australian modern coastal home. 

The dramatic statement of the black-and-white rug from Fenton & Fenton 

pretty much makes this room, but the yellow chairs and the thick 

farmhouse table are pretty awesome too. 

I love the combination of the warmth from the oak ceiling 

and walls mixed with the sleek slate gray cement. 

This natural palette makes for a perfect place to highlight bright and joyful 

artwork by Megan Weston.

Oh, and how cool are these copper pendants. Love them.
