Grand Tours: Texas Gulf Coast Beach Getaway

Southern Living ’s Port Aransas Idea House on the Texas Gulf Coast is a light and airy beach retreat with lots of room for family and friends.

Just off the family room, a wooden deck faces the ocean. Two plastic Adirondack chairs flank a ceramic garden stool. The plastic chairs stand up against the salty sea air better than wood chairs.

Most of the furniture in this home is brand new, except for this vintage chair covered in the same tropical print fabric as many of the room’s throw pillows.

By raising the kitchen one step up, the architects created a stadium effect in the living room. The counters in the kitchen are standard height, but because of the elevation change, they reach bar height from the opposite of the island in the family room.
