Calumet Avenue

A coastal home with an oriental accent

This oceanfront home blends a relaxed coastal palette with oriental design touches. Arched openings recur throughout, framing the kitchen window, doorways and built-in shelving, and pair with rift-cut white oak cabinetry, honed stone counters, and woven rattan seating.

Open shelving displays coral, ceramics and bonsai in place of upper cabinets, keeping the kitchen light and airy, while a curved-back sofa and a hand-knotted rope wall hanging bring in natural texture. Floor-to-ceiling glass and a barrel-vaulted, wood-paneled ceiling in the living area keep the ocean view the focal point of the home.
