A russet orange feature wall in the main living area displays painted wood rounds above a gorgeous polished wooden bench next to three, round stacking glass tables in black iron frames. Black shelves with white sea life statuettes play on color, dimension, and the appeal of nature in this beautiful interior space. Clean, minimalist lines lead into a sleek modern kitchen in slate gray, with a white kitchen island offset by a black dining room table. The theme seems to be the joining of binaries in the natural and urban. King-sized beds float on wood platforms in front of rich wooden feature walls against a black and white palette all throughout the interior.

The infinity pool overlooking the harbor affords a picturesque view of terra cotta roofs on whitewash bungalows in the green hills across the water. Sailboat spires bob back and forth from their moorings in the harbor below.
