Beachy Kitchen Bar

Japanese raku pots line the shelf above the open kitchen pass-through. The bar stools were custom designed to be comfortable and backless so as to keep the view unobstructed while being sturdy enough to not tip over easily. The front door is visible to the left of the kitchen. ©Gibbs Smith, Barry Dixon Interiors, Brian D Coleman. Design: Barry Dixon/Photo: Edward Addeo

Nothing says nautical like a wall covered in a gorgeous map from floor to ceiling. The model sailboat on the rustic wood table adds a sense of wanderlust. It's hard to choose what to love more: the map wallpaper or the gorgeous barn-style doors. Design: ZeroEnergy Design/Photo: Eric Roth

The upholstered cane-backed chairs, freshly painted table and vintage marine life prints are reminiscent of relaxed summers and shabby seaside homes. White beadboard walls allow the sand-colored curtains and accessories to act as complementary accents rather than simply appearing in the background.

Coastal Turquoise Retreat

The tropical master bathroom pulls its inspiration from the home's location on Florida's Treasure Coast. To mimic the hues of the water, designer Linda Woodrum uses sea-blue mosaic-glass tiles on the walls and inside the shower. As a contrasting element, she keeps everything else — including the walls, vanity and trim — a crisp shade of white.
