Shingle Style on the Bay The lovely site on Moriches Bay in Westhampton offered this family from New York City an opportunity to create a relaxing and active compound for relatives and friends. Recalling gracious seaside living in the early 20th century, the Shingle Style was ideal for this new 6,200 square-foot residence. Porches grace the waterside elevation; terraces lead out to the pool and are adjacent to the kitchen as well. A second-floor porch off the master bedroom invites lounging, and built-ins and window seats encourage reading and chatting. Indoor and easily accessed outdoor spaces draw family members and friends together in informal gatherings around the pool, living room and large kitchen. The site also includes a new two-bedroom, 1,500 square-foot guest house and tennis courts. Tria Giovan

Traditional two-story mixed siding exterior home idea in Miami

Creative Sources Photography, Rion Rizzo
This is an example of a mid-sized victorian screened-in porch design in Charleston.

Combining beautiful materials with practical functionality, this California kitchen uses cabinetry stained in natural inspired finish for a beachy feeling. This wood stain/glaze combination falls into the taupe family, a grayish brown neutral that blended perfectly for this coastal kitchen. Portobello stained and highlighted cabinetry adds an organic feeling, that seems to be trending at this time. While the quartz countertops and didgeridoo clay dots mosaic-tile backsplash provide blending neutral backdrop with a whimsical feeling. Accented on the wall connecting the kitchen and the dining room are rustic wood Planks stained with a cabot semitransparent stain. Supported by modern stainless steel corbels. Adding a pop of color with purple and turquoise accents in this beachy kitchen. The wall paint is from the Martha Stewart collection called Sharky.

New exterior finishes, included new roof shingles, cement fiber siding, soffit and front door replacement. A second floor addition above the existing garage accommodates a master bedroom suite with walk-in closet with an exterior deck. Linda McManus Images

Deck was originally stained with Cabot's stain and the previous jobs were never stripped off before staining, so there was a hard "varnish" of stain built up in many areas. The entire deck was sprayed with maxxum's biodegradable deck stripper and washed off, leaving beautiful, bright, clean wood. A top coat of Sikkens SRD stain in Cedar was applied by brush to all surfaces.
