ALONG THE COAST…
The trend toward homes with expansive windows shows no signs of slowing—especially when there's a breathtaking view just outside. In this case, a striking beach dune immediately caught the homeowner’s attention—and now captivates everyone who enters the main house. To make the view a central element of the design, it was carefully integrated into the home’s architecture. Emily worked closely with the architect to design the millwork and select all the interior finishes, hardware, flooring, tile, and lighting, ensuring every detail supported the overall vision. She emphasized natural light and kept window treatments minimal to highlight the surroundings without distraction. Fabrics and rugs in hues drawn from the landscape further connect the sophisticated interiors to the outdoors, creating a space that feels cohesive, intentional, and deeply rooted in its setting.
