The blend of Shingle style with modern luxury here is fascinating. I wonder, how do the materials and design choices hold up against the coastal weather over time? Also, what inspired the specific layout of rooms and outdoor spaces?
Thank you! We chose durable, weather-resistant materials like cedar shingles and marine-grade finishes to withstand coastal conditions. The layout was inspired by maximizing ocean views and natural light while creating seamless indoor-outdoor living spaces for comfort and entertaining.
