In his first book At Home in Maine, acclaimed architectural photographer Brian Vanden Brink proved he can open the doors to wonderful houses and make you feel at home in the scene. Now Vanden Brink joins forces with Bruce Snider to take readers into 20 stunning seaside homes from CanadaÆs Bay of Fundy to tropical splendor in St. Barthelemy.

While Snider uses his architectural expertise and his skills at gaining special insights from home owners to describe the homes, which range from the historic to the ultra-modern, Vanden BrinkÆs photos show that these homes by the sea are intimately linked to their seascape settings. Decks, porches, and of course windows and mirrors bring seaside vistas into the living space. Floor plans and site plans are provided for many of the houses.
