Surf Shack
This one’s for the daydreamers, design lovers, and those of us who secretly buy books because they look cool on the coffee table (zero shame—we do it too). Surf Shack is a sun-soaked peek inside the homes of surfers around the world—think laid-back bungalows, salty cabins, and trailers that smell like sunscreen and freedom.
From Malibu to Melbourne, this book captures that effortless “I-just-hopped-off-my-board” vibe, whether you surf or not. It’s full of beautifully lived-in interiors—homes that feel like a breeze rolled through and fluffed the pillows. It’s part design inspo, part lifestyle envy, and all-around the kind of book that makes you want to wear linen and drink something with lime in it.
As someone who was obsessed with interiors long before Charlie Pickles opened its doors (and once wrote about houses for a living), I can confidently say this is one of those relaxed, transportive books that just gets it. You don’t need to live by the ocean. You just need to want to feel like you do.
And yes—buying a book just to feel like a cool surfer is absolutely a valid reason. 🏄♀️🌞🏠
