HE master suite, also
on the top floor, evokes
the feel of a coastal spa
retreat. Linen textiles
and grass wallpaper give an organic
feel. Custom rugs were designed
and crafted with acoustics in mind
as well as color and texture — the
balance of wool and silk provides
both softness and durability, and
rugs absorb sound and create a
more inviting feel, Maready says.
In the master suite, transoms
can be opened to create air flow
and reduce the need for air con-ditioning,
another throwback to
traditional coastal Southern home
design. Built-in cabinets frame
dual vanities, hers with tiny glim-mers
of seashell shine. Overhead,
a small chandelier of recycled sea
glass lights the passageway from
bedroom to bathroom. The bath-room
floor is tiled with Italian
marble in hexagonal shapes and
light sea-green tones that mirror
the nearby ocean.
