Owner chronicles: from blank canvas to ocean oasis

A restorative oasis on the north Cornwall coast, Senara is an architectural beach house with sweeping sea views towards Gwithian beach. In this owner chronicle, we speak with homeowner Melanie, who transformed a blank canvas into a ‘coastal-boho’ retreat with the help of local designers Tigah Interiors. There’s strength in its simplicity, with clean lines and calming hues that contrast with the wild stretch of coast on which it sits.

From the owner

“Surrounded by the rugged coast and farmland, we wanted the landscape to cross the threshold of the house, so we have therefore kept the interiors natural but luxurious at the same time.”
