Its really hard not to love a beach house. A house! By the beach! What’s not to love, right? Well, I have found a house that, well, since this is a design blog and not a random rant blog, let’s just say I’m not enamored with this design choice and leave it at that.

Let’s start with what’s good – lots of lightness, whiteness and glass. A gorgeous deck that provides stunning views. Clean, minimalist interior. Love this part, we’re here for the beach, not the chotchkies.

But, I just cannot get past this jarring, crushing roof. Why, why, why did the architects decide to smoosh this potentially lovely house with this monstrous scary top?

WE NEED BIGGER GABLES! That's the ticket.

Oh my, a strip mall on the beach - So conveinient
