In this episode of Houzz TV Live, interior designer Desiree Burns takes viewers inside her updated beach home in Newport, Rhode Island. Burns used light gray walls as a backdrop for pops of navy blue, green and brass to create a coastal glam style. Patterned wallpaper energizes several rooms, while earthy elements like wood side tables and rattan accent chairs bring warmth and balance. And a new three-level deck provides areas for dining and lounging.

gorgeous! would love to replicate this for a client in Sydney
Beautiful… so much to appreciate and enjoy! I love grasses too. But, they are fire hazards. I wish the beautiful dried specimen next to the fireplace would be moved.
I really love the flooring, actually I love it all. Could you please tell me about the wood floors?
