The Lowcountry Lady: Daniel Island

Dreaming of a White House

I have an affection for white houses. My favorite are the ones that are almost wholly white. Maybe just a subtle hint of something different for character. A beautiful glossy wood or striking color for a front door. A blue ceiling covering the porch. Slightly grey shutters.

Anyway, my next house will be all white, I think.

Inspiration houses (from various lowcountry neighborhoods) -

[January 2017 Update] If you love this pink door as much as I do, you'll be happy to know that I stumbled upon the details. You're welcome :)

Are you a fan?

To me, all-white houses are even more beautiful in neighborhoods full of colorful houses. That brings out the crispness. So full of hope and possibilities.

My recent tour of the Southern Living Idea House reminded me that I'd taken a few pictures when I toured the Coastal Living Showhouse at Daniel Island in 2013. And, I have pictures!

The official site for the Coastal Living Showhouse is quite good. My pictures include a few extra details that I want to remember:
