Description

Quaint cottage meets tropical paradise on this delightful consideration of the houses, gardens, and interiors of “The Grove.” Coconut Grove is a seaside hideaway stuffed with modest homes and charming cottages which have been nurtured, preserved, and artfully up to date for nowadays. Houses washed with white set amidst abundant gardens recall Eden. Irregular rooflines fitted with earthy red tile emerge playfully from an abundance of bright bougainvillea and graceful palms. Fountains splash playfully within cozy courtyards. Within these homes—small cracker cottages, stone bungalows, Mediterranean casitas, and Caribbean-styled ranches—light, bright colors and cool tile floors offer solace from the blazing afternoon rays of the sun. A haven for the ones drawn to eclectic architecture and a welcoming atmosphere, the cottages of Coconut Grove are both the conclusion of the tropical domestic dream and an expression of a way of life marked by quiet joys. Here, for the primary time in brilliant new photography specifically commissioned for the book, are the finest and most intriguing cottages of this special place—an unprecedented tour and invitation given by architecture authority and Miami resident Beth Dunlop and Coconut Grove-based photographer Claudia Uribe.
