#Beach house minimalist design full#
Everything in the house should make us happy-it’ll be full of meaningful pieces that we love and that foster creating memories together as a family. Image by sam frost at jodie fried’s home Comfort reigns supremeĪt this point in my life, I want to be comfortable all the time-and I want everyone who enters our home to feel instantly at ease. The architecture and design will create a simple canvas, and then we can layer on interest with furniture, textiles, and decorative details. My goal is to include just enough interesting elements and thoughtful details while avoiding anything overly trendy-I want it to feel timeless. No surprise that I’m embracing a bit of minimalism here as I do with most all of my design projects. And the “beach” comes into play with white walls, vaulted shiplap ceilings, planked cabinetry, and overall casual vibes. In keeping with the ranch-style qualities of the current house, we’re sticking with a one-story layout with an open floor plan, large windows, and sliding glass doors. That means that decorative details will be kept to a minimum, allowing the clean lines and lush nature outside the windows to take center stage. To create the casual, warm aesthetic we’re envisioning for Zuma Beach House, we’ll be leaning into a lack of ornamentation to create a sense of calm. (And yes, that’s subject to change, lol.) Our architect, Doug Burdge, designed the new plans to make the most of the natural environment, whether it’s shifting the orientation to see the full view of the ocean, or adding protection to block the wind.
