Beautiful Cottages and Villas: Introducing 80 Sater Coastal-Style Home Plans
Editorial Reviews Book Description Beautiful Cottages and Villa Homes offers 80 enchanting designs that bring forth a sense of ease and comfort often reserved for gentler times. Using artful details that borrow freely from the past, these architecturally rich plans combine paneled windows, seaside porticos and hosts of French doors to mingle wide views with light airy interior spaces that invite a "sit and watch the sunset" attitude.
This collection of plans couples the pleasing aesthetics of earlier Plantation, Old World Mediterranean and Island style homes with technical demands of a modern household. Versatile living and dining rooms tune themselves to any occasion - planned or cozy. Master suites with private decks and luxurious baths invite sunning and soaking. Cool covered galleries and sun-kissed courtyards blur the definition between indoor and outdoor spaces and capture unforgettable vistas.
Created by The Sater Design Collection, and published by Designs Direct Publishing, these designs fulfill the concept of home as a comfortable place that captures and nurtures the spirit of everyday life. Gloriously illustrated by Dave Jenkins and exquisitely photographed in their natural settings, the houses found in Beautiful Cottages and Villa Homes stir the senses, create dreams and invite the good life.
