Surf Shack: Laid-Back Living by the Water

Excellent coffee table book, and also lovely short stories about how every day people find the time in their day to surf and how their homes reflect the surfing vibe! Excellent book. Definitely a good read and an appealing book to look at. So good.

This book looks gorgeous on the coffee table - but it’s what’s inside that caught my heart. I love the rustic, relaxed and coastal interior design and style of each and every feature home! The photos make me happy and reading it has got my creative juices flowing!

From the very first page, I was captivated by the stunning photography and the inspiring stories of coastal living. Nina Freudenberger has beautifully captured the essence of the surf lifestyle, showcasing a range of homes that embody a perfect blend of relaxation, creativity, and connection to the ocean. The book takes you on a visual journey through some of the most unique and inviting surf shacks around the world, from Malibu to the Rockaways, and even as far as Japan and Australia. Each home featured is a testament to the laid-back, carefree vibe that surfers cherish, and the vibrant design details are truly inspiring. What I loved most about this book is how it goes beyond just showcasing beautiful interiors. It dives into the lives of the homeowners, sharing their stories and passions, and giving a glimpse into how they have created spaces that reflect their love for the ocean and the surfing lifestyle. If you have a love for the sea, a passion for design, or simply enjoy dreaming about a more relaxed way of living, this book is a must-read. It’s not just a book, but an experience that transports you to serene beaches and cozy coastal retreats. Highly recommended!

Il libro è bellissimo, lo volevo da tanto e sono felicissima di averlo. Purtroppo però è arrivato buttato in una scatola Amazon insieme ad altri oggetti e senza alcun tipo di protezione, tanto che degli spazzolini per la pulizia delle bottiglie che avevo comprato insieme erano finiti in mezzo alle pagine, per fortuna senza causare danni. Una piccola ammaccatura su un angolo e un'altra sulla copertina però potevano essere evitate, soprattutto perché questo è il tipico coffee table book, da esporre appunto in casa e lo si vorrebbe ricevere immacolato.

Book arrived quickly but unfortunately damaged on one corner. As it’s for a present it’s a shame but it’s a great book
