Coastal Bliss features more than 40 holiday houses from around the world and showcases the very best, and latest, in contemporary coastal architecture and design.

This highly anticipated follow-up to the best-selling Beautiful Beach Houses spans the globe: from remote beaches in New Zealand and Chile to the treetops in Costa Rica and Australia; from islands in Greece and Denmark to dunes in South Africa and the Netherlands; and from glamorous locations in Spain and the United States to some of the world's best-kept secrets in Portugal and Mexico.

Designed by leading architects, these vacation homes range from modest retreats to luxury houses. No matter the style or size, they're all designed for modern living in idyllic and secluded coastal locations.

Where the boundaries between indoors and outdoors truly disappear, and infinity pools and cantilevered decks feel like you're floating over the ocean.

Each residence is illustrated with stunning full-colour photographs that will transport you around the world and have you daydreaming of your next home and vacation. The engaging texts explore the architect's approach to the design and describe how they took inspiration from the context, climate, and clients.
