A Log Cabin Home is Transformed into a Dream Beach House

An unexpected and amazing log home makeover!

Transforming Log Home into Dream Beach House
When most people think of a log home, images of dark, rustic woods, and a cozy, cabin-like atmosphere come to mind. But one adventurous homeowner and interior designer who loves the coastal vibe saw potential and decided to give it a dramatic, unexpected makeover, transforming it into her dream beach house. Here is a peek inside the log home's new look after the makeover. For many more pictures, including before images, go to Cottage Fever

The biggest transformation is the Wood Paneling, a hallmark of the cabin's traditional design. Instead of embracing the dark, traditional tones, the homeowner chose to Paint a lot of the cedar wood paneling white, using Benjamin Moore's Simply White which has a warm undertone. A satin finish was used for the ceiling to really have the light that pours in reflected and bounce around.  The stone Fireplace was painted white too. Also, you will see blue accents throughout the log home, including an aqua Kitchen Backsplash, to echo the ocean outside.  

This is a truly transformative log cabin home makeover!
