"With its endless vistas of dramatic cliffs and sandy beaches, California has one of the most spectacular coastlines in the world - and the homes that dot its shores are equally fabulous."--BOOK JACKET.

Visit the homes of actor Peter Horton, designer Ivy Rosequist, decorator Michael Smith, as well as unique residences designed by such renowned architects as Stanley Saitowitz, Rob Wellington Quigley, and Joseph Esherick."--BOOK JACKET. "Complete with an informative text by Pilar Viladas, full-color photographs by Mark Darley, and a foreword by Interior Design editor Stanley Abercrombie, and featuring a valuable resource guide, this lavish volume is for anyone who has ever dreamed of a home by the sea."--BOOK JACKET.
