The volume takes you on a journey to the world's most beautiful houses set in gorgeous coastal settings.

Living by the sea, surrounded by dunes, cliffs, or wide beaches, is a life in sync with nature, immersed in nature. Naturally, this preferred location near the water also leaves its imprint on the buildings there. On a functional level, beach houses have to offer protection against the wind and waves, but above all, as the supreme manifestation of longing turned into architecture, they must provide room for experiencing nature.

Fascination Seaside Living: Architecture & Design invites you to rediscover and redefine life by the sea. The selected projects show the planning and construction possibilities in dealing with the special conditions of such locations. It presents creative designs and spatial concepts from all over the world of dreamlike, relaxed, and enjoyable living between water, air, and earth.
