New Seaside Interiors
As good as it gets
Extraordinary coastal living from Iceland to Chile
Inhale deeply: no, that’s not the smell of a book, that’s the delicate scent of the ocean’s breeze. You have been whisked off on a journey through the world’s loveliest seaside homes and perhaps (no promises) you’re never coming back.... Relax into the lazy pace of living by the water while you soak up our selection of delectable coastal interiors from all five continents. Highlights include a Martha's Vineyard mansion, a Knokke apartment designed by minimal architect Vincent van Duysen, the Kjærholm house in Denmark, the domicile of Fiona Swarovski in Capri, the Lautner-designed Marbrisa residence in Mexican Acapulco, and a house in Iporanga, Brazil by architect Isay Weinfeld. From minimalist to cozy, from ethnic to modern, these homes all share a love for the deep blue.

"Una casa in riva al mare: basterebbe questa fortunata contiguità di acqua e architettura per far sognare. E anche se poi prende forma soltanto sulle pagine di un libro, il sogno si amplifica e ci porta lontano quando si arricchisce di interni, stanze, dettagli asssemblati e selezionati con gusto, interpretati e declinati secondo le tradizioni e il paesaggio che si stende intorno, da positano alle coste dell'Uruguay, dalla Danimarca al Cile, riflettendo in maniera creativa lapersonalità di proprietari spesso eccellenti. Emozioni che si porvano sfogliando le pagine di questo libri che raccolgie bellissime immagini, storie di case marittime vicine e lontane e, sottot traccia, altrettante vite vissute. TASCHEN.
