one gorgeous pool house

I just spotted this fabulous pool house

in the latest Sunset Magazine.

I love how the 15 foot long pocket doors

bring the outside in, and how about that

kitchen window that doubles as a poolside bar?

Let's take a better look...

Don’t you love how the window just swings upwards?

It reminds me of a beachside food stand.

The outdoor barstools are by Room & Board.

This setup makes entertaining friends

and family so effortless.

And lets take a look at the inside…

It’s the perfect little kitchen,

all done up with shiplap and I love how the

floors and ceilings mirror each other.

The floors may look like wood,

but it’s actually a porcelain

floor tile that easily stands up to

wet swimmers who walk in and out.

Those Serena & Lily pendant lights are

quite popular and look perfect in here!

This pool house also doubles as a guest cottage,

and the living space features a murphy bed

behind what looks like cabinet doors.

I love this fun and airy decor,
punctuated by the black windows and doors.

On the floor, 
the Twisted Abaca rug is also 
by Serena & Lily.

This space definitely needs all those natural 

elements brought in with the accessories,

to add a coastal vibe.

Here’s a great design detail,

the designers created a shower that can

be accessed from the inside and

from the outdoor pool area.

What a great idea!

Light and dark shades of 

gray are married perfectly.

And even better, they're using 

black steel and glass doors,

which is such a chic look.

What do you think about the dark exterior color?

I think it works wonderfully

at this project.

This is such a fun party house!
