Laid-back, beach house decor and a come-one, come-all spirit welcome friends and family to Bill and Bonnie Daggett's Massachusetts escape.
Kitchen
"My theme was 'sun, sea, and sand,' and I love painted furniture," Bonnie says. She envisioned lobster-red Adirondack chairs, gray-blue nightstands, and a melon-bright coffee table, but choosing the right shades proved difficult. The yellow she originally picked for the kitchen morphed into something "too ugly to describe," says her friend and interior designer Denise Maurer, who recommended white wall tiles and celadon cabinets instead. "The natural light in Chatham is different than in most places," Bonnie explains, since the water shifts from gray to cerulean throughout the day. "Artists come here because of the way color is reflected and perceived."
In this photo: Cape Cod artist Tim Dibble custom-carved the kitchen's slate apron-front sink to incorporate local icons: a windmill, whale, lighthouse, and the word riptide. Wood-Mode cabinetry stores Bonnie's collection of Fiestaware. The cabinets are painted a color similar to "Green Crystal" from Olympic.

Reading Nook
In the master bedroom's sitting area, a pair of chairs covered in cotton matelassé swivel to face the harbor. A model sailboat from Chatham's Tale of the Cod sits atop a reclaimed-wood table found at Midsummer Nights, also in Chatham. The walls are painted "Icy Morn" by Benjamin Moore.

Stairway
Designed by architect John DaSilva, the foyer columns nod to classic Greek pillars. The blue walls are painted "Buxton Blue" by Benjamin Moore.
