Uniting a Blended Family Under 1 Roof

This casual, beach feel is brought to the backyard. The openness of the 3 double french doors invites guests to enjoy the outdoors under the comfort of the shade provided by the covered porch. White curtains on the sides of the porch can be drawn closed for privacy but add a warm softness to the multiple seating areas when open. The siding is crisp, white, and horizontal. The soft gray composite decking of the porch floor with the crisp white columns, white siding, white trim, wood ceiling, and ornamental grasses add to the coastal feel. The black fans, black wall sconces, black door handles, black string lights, and black pendant light are contemporary accents against the white house. The siding is not lapped siding. Instead the outer surface of the siding is straight up and down without an angle. This simple profile along with the clean shadow line give the home a modern feel - thus updating it from the traditional coastal shingle style.
