White on White
A strong trend among modern beach homes is layering white and off white bedding and fabrics. It brings a light and fresh feeling to the home as soon as you walk in the door.

LBI has so many decor shops you’ll be sure to find tons of vibrant throw pillows and blankets to add some flare to any room in your home.
Breakfast Bar
If you’ve vacationed by the beach before, you know – breakfast isn’t just about pancakes and coffee. Its about sitting around with friends and family reminiscing about the night before or planing the rest of your day by the ocean. Where better to hang than in the kitchen at the breakfast bar. A trend seemingly popular in new constructions around the island, the breakfast bar is a must have.
