For those who combed Cabin Porn for inspiration and The New Bohemians for authenticity, here are the bungalows, trailers, cabins, and beach homes where surfers retreat after a day on the waves. Peek inside houses of longtime enthusiasts and dedicated newcomers that reflect not just a sport or passion, but also a way of life. Blake and Heather Mycoskie of TOMS, hotelier Sean MacPherson, Gypset author Julia Chaplin, and others have set up their homes as quiet harbors that embraces a casual ease, the break between the waves. With vibrant photographs of design details and bright beaches—from Malibu to the Rockaways, from Japan to Australia—this book captures the soulful milieu of a lifestyle we all aspire to.
