beachy keen

three blocks from ocean beach, this interior stylist and surfer infuse their outer sunset home with their casual coast lifestyle inside and out.

we transform this empty backyard into the beach home it always knew it could be. where only wild mustard once grew, now family and friends gather around the firepit, shaggy no-mow lawn, and dining terrace among the olives, sages, and matilija poppy.

new hidden-in-plain-sight outdoor shower allows the surfer and his dog to bring the beach home with them and wash it away in their own private open-air spa. the surfer hasn’t showered inside since the install—a running streak going strong—how long can he go?
