Beach Cottage

A 1925 beach house in Palm Beach required additions to make it a family home. The design was a new post and beam construction with cover beads to reflect the existing cottage but not replicate it. The result is a marriage of two eras into one dwelling. The relaxed feel of the beach was maintained with canvas awnings to shade the western summer sun.
