Summer Solstice

Today is the first official day of Summer.  For those of us that endured the New England winter, it's a time to relax and recharge with time spent at the beach.  I was recently reading about Courtney Cox's Malibu beach house in Elle Decor.  Of course, my favorite space, is her outdoor deck with a lava rock fire pit and built in wrap around sofas surrounded by ocean views.  I would describe Courtney's home as natural modern.  There are so many great ways to decorate a beach house.  There are no rules and it does not have to be a cottage look in whites and blues.  It can be chic and modern or a classic preppy look, dressed up or dressed down.  What's your favorite beach house style?
