With the beach as their backyard and sweeping views of the bay beyond, this 3,000-square-foot Venice residence offered an extraordinary coastal setting that deserved to be celebrated from every corner of the home. Originally built in 1978, the property possessed all the ingredients of a remarkable waterfront retreat, yet the existing layout failed to fully embrace its surroundings. The homeowners envisioned a residence where the beauty of the outdoors would become an integral part of daily life—a home that felt vibrant, welcoming, and reminiscent of a luxury vacation getaway while serving as their primary residence.

Eridel Construction & Design was engaged to provide full-service interior design, leading a comprehensive reconfiguration of the home's interior layout to maximize both storage and sightlines to the water beyond. Rather than simply updating finishes, the project focused on fundamentally rethinking how the home functioned. Walls, circulation paths, and room relationships were carefully studied to create a more open and intuitive floor plan that allows natural light, bay views, and the coastal landscape to become part of the everyday experience.

The design aesthetic embraces a sophisticated interpretation of coastal living, infused with vibrant color, playful pattern, and layers of texture. The homeowners wanted the residence to feel like an escape from the ordinary—a place where every day carries the relaxed energy of a beach vacation. Rich hues, carefully curated textiles, custom furnishings, and distinctive materials were layered throughout the home to create spaces that feel energetic, inviting, and full of personality while maintaining a refined sense of sophistication.

Custom storage solutions were thoughtfully integrated throughout the residence, ensuring that every square foot functions beautifully without sacrificing aesthetics. Furnishings were strategically selected and arranged to frame the home's spectacular views while creating comfortable spaces for gathering, entertaining, and enjoying the relaxed rhythm of waterfront living. Decorative lighting, custom details, and carefully selected finishes add depth and character while creating a cohesive design language from room to room.

The result is a dramatic transformation that goes far beyond aesthetics. By reimagining the floor plan, maximizing functionality, and embracing a colorful design vision inspired by the homeowners' lifestyle, Eridel Construction & Design created a residence that feels joyful, sophisticated, and deeply connected to its surroundings—a true coastal retreat where every day feels like a vacation.
