My Dream Home

I LOVE every detail about this beach house designed by Jim Howard. House Beautiful featured this amazing home, so head over there to see more of this gorgeous beach home and read the entire interview.....or just keep scrolling....and drooling....


Mimi Read: What's the first commandment of good beach-house style?
Jim Howard: Let the beach house be relaxed. Nothing too dear. I've done fancy beach houses, but when I go there, I see people walking around in shorts and flip-flops: a disconnect. Beach houses should be places where everyone can kick back. Open windows, people coming and going, grilling and spilling cocktails — it all has to be okay.

Nantucket-style kitchen + a spa-like bathroom + relaxed, cottage-style feel = my DREAMhome!

  1. Love this house,too. I'm a big fan of Jim Howard ;think he's actually better than his wife. His use of color-so clear and spot on- makes me want to slipcover my sofa in a beautiful aqua....
