By the Sea by Mirjam Bleeker: Hardcover

The mouthwatering photos in this artistic coffee-table book take you all around the world to some of most enchanting homes and retreats close to the sea. Photographer Mirjam Bleeker and stylist and designer Frank Visser have known each other for more than 20 years. During this time, they have traveled around the world together, often without a fixed plan, seeking adventure and beautiful houses. On their travels, they love to visit the homes and holiday retreats of some of the fascinating people they know, who live on or at the beaches of various oceans and seas. There, Mirjam and Frank make honest, sensitive photo reports of the houses or cabanas, and still lifes of details of the interiors, as well as wonderful images of the people and surroundings.
