Pacific Coasting

The long L-shaped window seat beside the fireplace in this living room by the sea beckons weather-watchers. Storage niches control clutter. The homeowners used linoleum tiles to create a striped floor pattern that looks like wood flooring. Not only do the light and dark gold and reddish brown stripes mimic the color of the sand (hiding any brought in on shoes and bare feet), the tiles are water resistant and don't scratch easily.
