Coastal-inspired kitchen captures the essence of modern seaside living through bold color and refined detail. A turquoise island stands as a striking centerpiece, its rich hue balanced by crisp white cabinetry and a shimmering mosaic backsplash. The blend of textures and tones infuses energy and charm, while sleek black fixtures and natural light enhance its contemporary edge. Every feature, from the vent hood to the spacious countertops, contributes to a sense of effortless luxury and functionality. This elegant kitchen remodel harmonizes vibrant design with timeless comfort, creating a culinary space as inviting as it is inspiring.

This years Coastal Living Showhouse features expansive decks and porches including a rooftop deck with panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean, Point Loma, Mexico and Downtown San Diego, 2014 Ed Gohlich Photography, Inc.

The breathtaking ocean views influenced the dramatic redesign of this water-front Poipu condo. The outdated condo was completely remodeled to allow full appreciation of the surrounding views, bring in a fresh new color palette, and modernize and update everything from the electrical wiring to the new luxury bath towels. The clients wanted the condo to feel “fun, happy, and cheerful,” and to stand apart from the typical vacation rental on Kauai. They wanted to turn this condo into the ultimate “beach house” that felt just as luxurious as the gorgeous natural surroundings. Fresh white ship-lap walls set the backdrop for this modern beach style, which is further enhanced with bold stripes, natural textures, and ocean-themed decor. The palette of cobalt, aqua and lichen green is fresh and vibrant against the neutral backdrop. Trina Turk’s “Peacock Print” was the inspiration fabric for the living and dining room. The print is so lively, colorful, and modern, and was the perfect place to start. Every custom detail was thoughtfully chosen to bring a sense of luxury and originality to the space. While some elements are whimsical, such as the playful octopus art & fish-themed fabric, other elements are sophisticated and classic, to help keep the design grounded. Special features include a custom-made “Moroccan Fish Scale” tile backsplash in the kitchen, crushed marble counter tops with oyster shells and float glass, and blue glass pendant lights, reminiscent of water bubbles.

Whereas the Winterberry model home’s living room showcases light ocean blues and sandy whites, the guest bedroom focuses on vibrant tropical greens. Paisley linens are reinvented to work within this coastal design theme – and brilliantly, we might add!
