Tauk to Me

So, every summer since i was introduced to it, I try to get my butt down to Montauk. At least twice, if not prefereably 8-9 times. It's ultimately my dream to have a little surf shack of my own here.

I adore a beach feel so much in interiors, and although I respect the old and classic aesthtic, I love to see new and innovative ways of bringing the beach in.

My favorite girls at Tauk are always bringing me inspiration and ideas when i visit their self described "funky best friend vibe" shop. So I was elated to learn they have a website!!! and even their own design firm in BK. A look at their portfolio sent me reeling. Such a delightful morning treat!

All the classic items like rattan and light, worn wood pieces are present, but always tempered with a personal sensibility and shots of color, like a super hyper yellow in the kitchen and a union jack upholstered chaise! Shells, recycled oil paintings, palm beach patterns and surf photos repeat themselves in different places in the house. And what has to be my favortie, a palm tree landscape wallpaper, that I've been dreaming of getting for years, but was way too chicken to. YAY TAUK!
