Double Hung Windows Let the Sea Breezes Blow Through Dunes' Edge Bedroom

Walk into this bedroom perched on the edge of ocean dunes and raise up every one of those double-hung windows. Now, smell the salty air, hear the cry of the gulls, and the soft hush of the surf. But when a gale blows, you'll be just as cozy with all the comfort provided by double-pane glass, tightly-constructed frames, and that puffy down comforter. This bedroom is well thought out, with the row of windows framing each part of the view, the bed facing the ocean and the night-time stars, and a deck that invites a morning cup of coffee and perhaps some time for meditation. The headboard serves triple duty, as it provides counter space as well as lots of nearby storage. The creamy white color scheme keeps the ambiance sunny even on foggy or stormy days, and is carried through even on the planked floors. Bravo for understatement all around!
