Inviting, relaxed, cozy, getaway, modern are some of the words that come to mind when I look at this wonderful Long Island home. Making great use of neutrals, a variety of woods, some fantastic textured accents, not to mention the spectacular outdoors, this house looks like a comfy beach haven.

Being at the beach is so relaxing and is such an excellent place to unwind. Now, if I were spending my days in a beachy heaven - like this Nantucket piece of perfection by Donna Elle - I would probably get nothing done (except for lounging, resting, sunning, etc.) and that would be okay.

White, minimal, calm, chic, simple, beautiful, peaceful are all words that I think of when looking at these pictures of Ralph Pucci's home. The house was decorated by Vicente Wolf and he loves white interiors and does them well. I love how this house is done up but not over done. Love!
