Pure Salt Shoppe - Island escape

entering an island escape

Set atop a hill overlooking Lay Bay on the island of Sint Maarten, this ground-up residence was envisioned as a seamless extension of island life—where architecture, materiality, and landscape exist in conversation and come together to celebrate the beauty and lifestyle of Caribbean living.

Rooted in a refined coastal sensibility, the home embraces an calming palette of organic textures, natural stone, hand-finished woods, and soft tonal layers that reflect the surrounding environment while creating a relaxed and effortless sense of home.

the kitchen

Anchored by natural oak cabinetry, hand-laid stone walls, and oversized woven pendants, the space layers organic materials and soft tonal contrasts to evoke an elevated coastal sensibility that feels both timeless and deeply connected to its surroundings.

Designing for island living

Designed to blur the boundaries between indoors and out, the residence unfolds through a series of open-air moments, expansive terraces, and thoughtfully framed views that celebrate the rhythm of coastal living. Every space was approached with intentionality, balancing relaxed sophistication with durability and ease, allowing the home to feel equally suited for intimate daily living and family-forward entertaining.

the bedrooms

Each bedroom is tailored with a quietly coastal sensibility—never literal or theme-driven, but instead guided by mood: breezy, calm, and restorative. Throughout the home, materials tell the story with woven finishes, textured linens, warm wood tones, and natural fibers blend to create a setting that feels both traditional and modern, sophisticated yet comfortably lived-in.
