Coastal Living, Jean Allsopp

In a coastal environment, outdoor spaces are just as important as interiors. The designer turned a closet on the upstairs porch into a full-service bar and equipped the space with a casual dining set. Screens keep bugs out in summer but fully retract into the ceiling on mild days.

Outdoor Paradise
Who says the back porch has to be attached to the house? One Memphis family enjoys theirs, which is nestled in the heart of the back yard. Although the structure was part of the property when the family bought the home several years ago, its size and scale seem ideal for today. The screened porch section measures 8 x 12 feet; exposed beams on the inside give it an open feel. To the left, an enclosed room that's used for storing outdoor equipment takes up another eight feet. - Integrated Cabinets
