Description

Modern beachside style is more than shells and surfboards. Whether the inspiration comes from nautical themes, natural elements, winter moods or the charm of the Mediterranean, the priority is always comfort and tranquility. It doesn't matter if you don't live near the beach - the spirit can be captured anywhere.

In this second book in the Style Study series, interior designer Lauren Li takes a deep dive into the best examples of the Beachside Modern look to discover what makes the aesthetic so appealing. From remote Tasmanian beaches and the glamorous French Riviera to a chilly Danish archipelago and the laid-back vibes of California, Li explores the work of leading architects and designers to reveal how they do it.

'Designer Lauren Li is a multi-hyphenate. Donning the hats of Designer, Entrepreneur, Published Writer and Mother, she has forged a tidy niche for herself in the global design landscape through an unfolding and inquisitive approach to life.' Tiffany Jade, Open Journal

'Even if you don't live by the coast it is still possible to conjure that effortless style that spells, sun, sand and sea...from Nautical-themed interiors to winter water wonderlands, the sounds of the waves is almost palpable between the pages of this book.' Judy Pascoe, Belle
