Surf's up - Interior Design 2016

My son is in surf camp all week. I am lucky enough to live five minutes from the beach and my kids are basically beach bums all summer! If I freaked out about every bit of sand that comes into my house, I'd end up a nut case... Whether you enjoy living a relaxed lifestyle in your home during the summer months or your year round home has this vibe, there is something to be said for the calming, carefree simplicity of a "surf shack". While I tend to steer clear of thematic design, I do think a gorgeous surf board or two in a room feels more like sculpture and they look pretty cool too. Take a peek at some sophisticated but laid back beach abodes and life style shots.

In Surf Shack, Freudenberger takes us on a colorful tour of some of the most unique surfer abodes around the world, from Melbourne to New York City. Read on for a sneak peek.
