Rizzoli International Publications A Summer Place: Living by the Sea
A Summer Place reflects the natural charm, understated beauty, and sophistication of the properties of notable tastemakers of Long Island s idyllic seaside community of Bellport-Brookhaven, where Foley resides. This beautifully photographed collection of homes offers inspirational ideas for making your home a personal sanctuary. Featured are modern residences by the sea designed around their water views, nineteenth-century shingle-style cottages that have been restored for today s living, and artist retreats filled with colour, pattern, and unique style. Many of these houses, with their screened porches, handcrafted outbuildings, and summer gardens have ideas that translate to seaside living anywhere. Some are decorated with subtle hues of sky blue, white floorboards, and comfortable rustic or contemporary furnishings. The grounds vary from manicured lawns that roll down to the sea to wild landscapes of seagrass, and lovely pergolas dripping with wisteria to working cutting gardens. With sections on summer decorating style, casual outdoor entertaining, seasonal flowers, and weekend guest tips, this book shares several ways to enjoy summer living at home.

Rizzoli International Publications Entertaining by the Sea: A Summer Place
From a lunch around a weathered picnic table set with mason jars full of herbs under a pergola and a vintage boat picnic to cocktails on the deck overlooking the marshes and a dessert party of bakery favorites in an open-air garage, this book is brimming with ideas for entertaining with ease during the warm weather months. Designer Tricia Foley has gone to her creative friends and influencers to collect their advice. Presented are beautifully photographed joyous gatherings at their beach retreats that reflect an artful sometimes bohemian approach to today s entertaining. They provide the details for memorable occasions, from arranging garden roses or wildflowers to setting relaxed tables with a mix of heirlooms and new accoutrements and selecting delectable menus to organizing a bar on a white lacquer tray. Included are go-to recipes for light summer fare: lobster-salad lettuce wraps, salmon with grilled lemon slices, peach almond cake, musk-melon daiquiris, and more. There are sidebars with tips on setting an outdoor table using a beachy blue-and-white tablecloth or burlap, placing white stones to hold down napkins, using clamshells for salt and pepper, and stocking the pantry to make gatherings a breeze.
